Yay, thanks for the info. Don't like the album cover, but I like that they kept the font.

Robin, I agree completely
she looks kinda surprised, kinda mug-shot-y.

and Ally, new music is released on Mondays in the UK, on Tuesdays in the US. it's how it's always been. it's a tad annoying but that's the way it is.

haha! nicely stated. yes, that's also why record stores are always busiest on Tuesdays.
