Singles almost always are released before the album. Depeche Mode for their album Ultra, had two singles released before the album was finally released (!). In North America - it's always a tuesday for all releases (very very few exceptions). In Europe - virtually always (from what I've gathered so far) Monday. In Germany, cds are at their cheapest in the first week of release. Canadians, stay away from that cd on the first day if you want to save money, wait a week (or don't...:) they don't get much cheaper, maybe two or three dollars). If April 26th is a Monday, then perhaps that is in fact the date for Europe...???? Suzy ps are any of my messages getting through to the list??? Someone out there please let me know..thanks!!!! - --------------------------------------------------------------- This is the Ridiculous Thoughts Mailing List Send posts to : cranlist@smoe.org Send unsubscribe requests to: cranlist-request@smoe.org Put "unsubscribe" in the BODY of the message.
