(UPDATED) - The international release plans of Marie Fredriksson's forthcoming album "The Change" continue to take form. One of The Daily Roxette's reporters contacted EMI South Africa and found out that the single "2:nd Chance" has been rejected by all South African radio stations and will therefore not be released. But on the other hand, the album will be released only two days after the Swedish release, namely Friday Oct 29, with albums in the stores on Monday.

  There will, however, not be any kind of promotion around this release, since it's a low priority release for EMI South Africa.

  In Germany, Amazon and other Internet retailers have listed "The Change" scheduled for release November 15, while in Hungary, the release date is the same as in Sweden; October 27. Japan releases it November 22.
