PopeLeo said: It's easy, Udo. Get a hundred European Orgers to chip in 30 Euro each.
CarrieMPLS fills a suitcase with our CDs and flies over, posting them from somewhere in Europe. We get our hardcopy music and she gets a free European vacation. Everyone's a winner!  Sounds like a good idea if he doesn't distribute in Europe. Where can I sign up? Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Was you in Europe in 2007? We got loads of love.In other words: what deal does P have for us, non-US inhabitants? We don't get any love? Yes, I do LIVE in Europe. I saw about 18 shows at the O2 and/or Indigo. But this is not concert-love, this is album-love. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Cinnie said: Nina1993 said: i'd get it for you. ahh finally some appropriate org flirting with Dave1992 Yessss!! Oh wait.. I know that girl
Oh, I think she's the one who I spent every day with, last year. Pity she's in the US right now. 
And btw, Cinnie, does that mean the other org ladies with an age of easily 90 years, who pay me compliments all the time, are not appropriate?

I'm sure the album(s) will be available worldwide. It's just weird that he had to make some big announcement like that along with TV commercials for this one store. It's not like Springsteen and AC/DC's albums aren't being sold around the world. I'm sure the price will probably be hiked up elsewhere though. | |

LondonStyle said: oh....oh...it's a Sunday .....UK orgers start checking your newspapers ...  Is this some new thing by the way? My current fav band The Answer just released their new album last Sunday too. I think it's a chart thing, at least in the UK where the charts are announced on Sunday and go from the sales of the previous Sunday through to Saturday. New albums released on a Monday miss out on a day's sales for the next week's chart. [Edited 3/3/09 11:43am] | |

This is true - I still want Planet Earth in a decent case but it's not easy to come by in the UK. Ebay's flooded with the newspaper giveaway version, though. | |

You guys will hate me, but he should sell each album separately. The different albums are for differing tastes. What about singles? He has to get radio play or he is sunk. All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

I'd certainly like the option to make a stand and not have to buy Bria's album, and this is coming from someone who has Mayte's album. | |

Ha, but seriously. He's launching his alleged new girlfriend with a so-so voice who hasn't showcased any kind of musical talent to the world at all yet, but her album is bundled with his, so how can anyone even measure the success on it's own merit? | |

He's probably trying to avoid radio for now. I would think that he is going to rely on the "30 second soundbite" through commercials to get people to buy the new album. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

I think it should be considered as a Prince release with her vocals only. He's just doing her a favour by putting her name on the CD, that's it. |

That is exactly how I feel about the Bria CD. I'm not one who's interested in Prince's Proteges but I'm feeling the tunes too and I want to see what else he did for her CD. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Vanity 6 Apollonia 6 The Time The Family Madhouse All were Prince albums with other people's vocals. **--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••--**--••**--••-

Exactly, they weren't that bad either and, from what I've heard from Elixir so far, I think it does have potential. |
