Guess The Release Date!

Whats your prediction of the release date for 3121?
Prince & the press releases said early 2006 - what does that mean?
A cd single is being released December 20th
so how far behind can the whole CD be?

March 17th.
News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

Really? I mean thats like 3 months away.
Any excitement building with this first single will be long gone.
Seems like a strange marketing move to release a single
during the height of x-mas season for a cd 3 months away from release.
But who knows you may be right - stranger things have happened.

Nobody is using the numerological method?
There must be some combination of 3121
to reveal a date...

When introducing the video premiere on VH1 Classics, the guy said the album was coming in the spring of 2006. That means after March 21st doesn't it?

Do you really think Prince needs worry about "excitement building"? I find this strange. That is a good marketing schema for bands and green that need hype and shit like that to sell records. Let me remind you however, we are talking about prince.

Personally, I wish he would get it right instead of let it out to soon.

According to the Prince Press Conference it will be released "early 2006".
Who you gonna believe - Prince or some VH1 dude broadcasting from a mall?

Yeah I do think Prince has to hype his new releases because his core audience is small & he needs attention & the spotlight to sell his product. He needs the fanfare to get people buying which gives him leverage with the record companies. Otherwise he is an indie artist with a small loyal audience.

Te Amo Corazon is NOT the first single from the album, it's just a "buzz tune" to start the hype machine on its path.
