Cd design

Don't know if it has been mentioned in all these Planet Earth related threads:

- The cd cover is of a holographic nature: both pictures are to be seen: the one with P and the planet and the Symbol.

- my cd shows the European continent and Africa. I wonder, if the American or Japanese versions show their continents. Or maybe I just happen to come across a cd with Europe by chance.

- there is no booklet

- the media player shows the 3121 track list (know that was mentioned b4 somewhere)

- love the Cd more with every listen.

Enjoy every1

Inserting the cd into my drive while being online showed name of cd: 3121

followed by the track list with 3121 as the first track and Black sweat at no 4 for instance.


I am listeing to Planet earth at the mo and that's what the media player tells me:

That is weird, my copy doesn't do that (but I have an older version of the Windows Media Player). It shows no songtitles.



In other players however (Nero Showtime), I get the correct song titles except for 'Resolution', That one is called 'Revelation'.

Question -- why did Prince select the European / African contident side of the world for the Planet Earth release?

Not that I don't mind. Maybe it's just a representation of the global aspect of "planet earth"?

And I do wonder if the North American release on Tuesday, 24 July, will have a North American / South American view?

You have to pick a side of globe to show...dont read too much into it. Then again, we all ultimately come from Africa.

So there's no enhanced portion? No hidden tracks? No links to special websites?
All this was reported but never confirmed.
Oh well, I'll be happy to have actual CD this Tuesday. cool

i'm surprised that there's no booklet. that's one thing (out of a million) things that I love about Prince...he always included lyrics with the albums

Ludwig: You find yourself amusing, Blackadder.
Blackadder: I try not to fly in the face of public opinion.

Is there a full length video of Guitar somewhere yet?

Selective hearing is wonderful... 'cause sometimes the answer to your question is not what you wanted to hear...
