Yeah it's gonna leak any moment now, streams instantly become leaks it seems. the new Prince leaked as Tidal put it up to stream. Still don't get the idea of streaming the whole album, loyals will always buy your stuff, so if that is the case just release the thing, and cut out all leak chances.

They moved the USA date up early on it was the 18th, and the rest of the world was the 11th. In one interview the reporter said it was moved up because of demand, which would be nice but it was not true. It was moved up because artsts are trying to get away from the "different" dates because of downloads.

I think demand is a new polite way of saying leaks ain't no one calling radio or record stores clamoring for a new DD album. And I love the Durans. | |

Kinda liked the first song but then it just gets worse. Makes me realize that it must be just kinda hard to be 56 years old (Simon Lebon, Prince, Madonna, etc.) and make pop music. | |

Paper Gods if possibly one of their best songs, reminding me of the gem "The Man who stole a leopard" Duran lately has had these types of songs. I have heard about half the record, like most of what I heard, i know people were freaking over Janelle Monae and Nile Rodgers, but to me Pressure Off of the songs i have heard is the weakest track.

Or maybe people are just ageist and have a problem with older people making pop music. | |

Danceophobia kind of brings a smile. Even Lindsay Lohan's part sounds cute. "That's when stars collide. When there's space for what u want, and ur heart is open wide." | |

My only gripe is that songs get bogged down in "hip" sounds like "What Are The Chances"... its a great ballad but it has that dumb "playing card in a spoke" turning wheel sound thats all the rage these days. | |

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Sunset Garage is my favorite but it's difficult for me to sing/say garage the way Simon does. | |

Sunset Garage is the jam!! Reminds me of the groove from Serious, just not so... serious. I love the 60s/Motown-esque flourishes. | |

Only In Dreams and The Universe Alone are my songs right now. The bonus tracks are really strong. I really like Northern Lights, Cinderella Ride, and Evil Beach is growing on me. I can't wait to see them in Berkeley on Friday. Is anyone else going to that show? "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

IMO, All You Need Is Now was a stronger album than Paper Gods. | |

I agree with you, but for some reason Paper Gods has had a lot more commercial success, i guess because it's on a major label. | |

Chic really got the crowd pumped and dancing. Duran Duran were reallly good and they performed lots of their hits including Come Undone and four new songs from their release. They opened with the title track. "Funkyslsistah… you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude"!

I bet the title track sounds awesome live. That sounds like a great lineup did Nile join Duran Duran for any songa? Notorious!?? Got to hear the bonus tracks On Evil Beach is my fave its trippy. I like Cinderella Ride alot too. These tracks add to the album. I hope they do some collaborations and remixes, Danceaphobia is so catchy. | |

Yes, Nile played with them during Notorious and Pressure Off. I really like most of the bonus tracks, altho I haven't taken to Planet Roaring yet.
