Olympia

I know what you mean, as I have been a fan since 2000, but I think I saw people looking out for Xtina10 in fan groups. Never been very active online on her, though.

Do you mean Mi Reflejo? I think it's usually considered as her official 2nd album. No idea about her Xmas album, but I think it's usually taken into account, although most artists don't. Christina Aguilera (1999) Mi Reflejo (2000) My Kind of Christmas (2000) (?) Stripped (2002) Back to Basics (2006) Bionic (2010) Lotus (2012) Liberation (2018) Aguilera (2022)

True, and I still hate that tactic 🙄 I chose the blue one as this was the back cover I like the most, but I'll be pretty angry if I find out this has the ugliest front cover 🙄🙈😅 at least we have a clue what genre the album will be and two singles, unlike Taylor who does kind of the opposite... Beyonce going country was a must have for me. I skipped Renaissance, as it's not my genre. Already loved Lemonade as some songs had some country touch to them, or at least were screaming south states, lol.

Would love this. However, that she was to Dolly's house could also mean a collab for a Dolly record. Maybe she plans a Rockstar deluxe release 😅🙈

I'm glad though she announced her country album so early though because it looks like so many artists are on this train now, so she won't look like a copycat then 😅 Really curious for the cover but I don't dare to expect too much. Her covers are more often miss than hit to me 😅🙈 I think the only covers I really love are OB standard, and some alternate covers like BB red vinyl, Honeymoon UO and Chemtrails blue vinyl. I don't hate the others (except white OB), they are OK usually, but far away from favorite pics.

Very true, although I (German) always prefer my data in US hands if I have to decide. At least as long as the US remain a democratic state, lol.

That's actually a big thing, if you're interested in this, check out information about Sesame Credit and Alibaba company. Not saying that's why it makes sense to forbid it, as there are lots of other ways to spy, but you can be sure this data is interesting for them (especially from Chinese people living abroad, too) - and for many other countries.

Looks like she does not sign art cards for the Taylor's version records. But since she did for midnights, I hope she does for the new album, too. But only if she releases them early enough to cancel the unsigned version. That was hell of a trouble for Midnights back then, lol. I'd love to get a signed photo of this amazing shoot, then I could sell my signed midnight version. Not really interested in that album anymore, but wanna keep at least one "autograph". (They are probably auto pen or fakes anyway I guess?)

Wow, it's not red, lol. The red looked so bad in the folklore target variant. She usually doesn't release Walmart, UO, Spotify fans first etc. exclusive variants, right? Or have I just never seen them?

I could imagine these postcards coming with the new yellow CD Pack 2 include pictures of Lana https://store.dirtyhit.co.uk/format/1465862-bleachers-postcard-pack-2-with-cd Available to pre-order on a collectors CD + Postcard set format featuring a compilation of 15 photos taken from the Alma shoot. I'm glad I didn't order one of the vinyls before release day. Just saw the pics of them on discogs, none looks as lovely as on the mockup 🙄 I adored that peachy red marble, but it's just dark pink - white marbled... Wanted the variant in the middle

Thanks a lot, was coming here to ask about it (if she sings more) 😁

I got the last variant now, which I liked most luckily. If they bring up better and/or signed art print versions, I can still cancel until April I guess.

Omg does this mean she'll cover Savage Garden? (I am a big fan of Darren Hayes)

That's what I dislike, too. We don't even have a single yet, do we? Do we know the genre even??? Thing is I wouldn't mind pre-ordering this one visually, but I wanna know which genre it is at least before paying 45 EUR, lol.

If you are not looking for a fever 2.0, "Kylie Minogue" from 1994 is surely worth listening. Totally different though! And I adore her jazzy Christmas album and the Abbey Road sessions. She covered some fever songs there, too. The body language vinyl will be heavenly, can't wait. They spread her best pics over the sleeve ❤️ Webfind:

Finally I could buy the mp3 from Amazon. Some songs are available now for download. Update: Omg, the Nick Cave song 😍

How do you know? Is this sure? I am not really acquainted with all her photo shoots, but I don't think I've ever seen a better photo shoot of her. Never found her as beautiful as on these pics.

True. Can't wait for her LASSO account (not meant to be used) 🤣🙈

Is that really an outtake? It looks SO fake! I was convinced it's an ai Pic, as it looks like an error on her cheek. Maybe bad retouch!?

From what I understood there are 3 versions / bonus tracks already. (manuscript, the bolter, albatross) I cannot imagine her doing less variants than for Midnights or even folklore. Why should she stop?

My favorite vinyl color is the second press of the amazon "beige" vinyl. The first press was kinda orange, and the repress was white, which looks best for the album in my eyes. Regarding the covers, I agree with the others, the blue RSD has the best cover. No idea why it's blue though, doesn't suit the album. I also like the (Spotify fans first) picture disc with the Country inspired / horse picture. So these 3 are my favorites of all I got. I only miss the crystal clear variant. (repress of the frosted clear one)

The problem is that you never know before if all variants will be available later, and her countdowns make this worse. Very true. I don't mind some variants to chose from, even though I think it would be better for climate if artists limited themselves to a few and all sold in the same shop, as we know very well how many fans will buy all. And if there are only 3, they will only buy that much. Well, the fact that she's releasing one bonus track per variant indicates at least that she actually WANTS people to buy all variants. No, she's not forcing them by holding a pistol to their heads, but I guess to many Swifties it feels like it, lol

On Facebook, several Swifties ("top fans", too) are revolting and complain about her one bonus track per vinyl.

That's why I'm gonna wait. Also wanna listen to it before I buy it. Was too disappointed of Midnights. And seeing all versions of Midnights and 1989 everywhere makes me think most editions will be available still at release date. And since it's a new release, they might even put up signed-art-card-editions again shortly before release date. Besides I am boycotting this "only available for 3 days" - sales strategy. We haven't got even a single yet to tell something about the album style, right?

Fully agree with the critics. These short distance flights can hardly be justified. (But, btw: Someone should also do an insta account to report about the CO2 impact of 10 vinyl variants sold in 10 different shops 😎 I think artists (incl. Lana) should think about how necessary this is, too.)
