SMiLE.dk / Party Around The World *OUT TODAY*

Hey, Mr. Jay, what retailers in the U.S. are selling this album, or is it JUST Amazon?

is it going to be on itunes (Canada)? : )

What fantastic news! ;D

I'm super excited to hear "Temptation Islands", Hanna seemed very excited about it, and it must be fantastic if it's going to be your first music video. ;D

Ya, I checked my local Targat, and nothing. I was a teensy disappointed, but least I know I can order it online! ^^ Imma try next week and order it.

Soo, wait, Temptation Islands is gonna be the first single? I thought it was Doki Doki..... =/ Is that gonna be like the 2nd, then? And hey, is the music video gonna premier on MTV? =P Just curious.... ; It'd be super awesome to see Smile.dk on TV. Hehehe.

Ooh, this is news to us!! Spill! Lol, who's the lucky guy?

I'm totally still waiting. Just as long as you don't say "Ok, no more will be available... ever." That would be bad.

Ah, I see. =/ Well I have heard Cascada's songs on the radio though. ; Soo, is it possible? D:

Anywho, ya how many were made? >.O I remember Mr. Jay telling us about the Doki Doki single, and only releasing 100 copies of those when it gets released. Was it the same for Party Around The World?

Hmm, that's very unfair. Unless of course there was a VERY limited supply available and people pre-ordered even before July.

some reason I doubt they're going to have the album in every target store.
you'll probably have to order it on their site

"This title will be released on October 28, 2008."

Jay...? What on Earth happened? o.o

Apparently there was a problem with the CD manufacturer... bummer. =\ Hope it doesn't take two months to get things straightened out!

There's a free download of Doki Doki there, though. Thanks, Jay! We shall take it as an apology. =3

Ummmm.... yeah... something is not quite adding up here. Jay starts this post off by saying that the album has been shipped (as of the 9th) and that it's sold out due to high pre-orders. And now it turns out that at least the first part of that wasn't true at all. I just can't think of a legitimate explanation for this. I mean, if you post saying "it has been shipped", wouldn't you actually have had some proof of shipment? Or maybe the CD manufacturer verbally confirmed shipment on the 9th (actually, it would have had to been prior to that to get it to Amazon by the 9th) but they were actually lying?
And what's that part about saying it's sold out (at Amazon implied since that's the only place it's available) when now we know it never even arrived at all? Then, the website says it should be out if a couple of weeks, but the release date on Amazon now says Oct 28th, and this seems more likely as people have received messages from Amazon with estimated delievery dates following this by 3-7 days.
And, what about the iTunes release? If the problem is truly with the CD manufacturer, shouldn't the album still be available to download from iTunes by now?
I'm not trying to be the bad guy here but I suspect that a lot of you in this forum have similar questions. It's pretty frustrating when you're expecting an album on a pre-published date, get confirmation that is "has shipped" on that date... only to find out 2 days later that it really never shipped at all. And the typical record industry response of "it's the CD manufacturer's fault" just doesn't seem to hold water here. How can it possibly take an additional 6-7 weeks if that was truly the problem? I for one simply want some honest answers at this point. Is that too much to ask?
