Great cover! Suits the vibe of the album very well. Is that an ABBA album in Per’s hands? The tracklist looks... interesting! ;-)

BTW. the bonus track will be “Keep the radio on” according to Per.

The info is taken from CDON.

Ha, you wish, this info is not taken from CDON. :)

on the CDON tracklist there is one song more- Jo-anna Says Farewell.

That’s a secret ghost track á la Kix cha-cha that we didn’t want to reveal, but CDON did anyways...

Some of the titles sounds like episode names of South Park :D Wonderful cover!

i like the single cover better, this is nice also though...

Good news and info. I love the cover picture, perfect for this double-album!! Ghost track as well, hehe, nice one ;)

About some of the titles, I’ve mentioned this one before “Hey Mr DJ (Won’t You Play Another Love Song)” sounds very Madonna inspired. “Ronnie Lane”, for some strange reason this one gives me associations to Harry Potter, LOL. “Speed Boat to Cuba”, hm, sounds like title of a great action movie ;) “Something Happened Today”, hm, yes it did :D “Making Love or Expecting Rain” the west coast choice :P Only thing I must think more of is the reprise track, generally I don’t like it, but I’ll wait an see if its’ at least a bit different than the first one.

Waltz about Woody!? hm. If I recall right, Per’s nickname for Åsa is Woody. So... does he dance waltz for her at home? *smile* Propably not, but that was my first thought when I read that title. *smile*

Funny titles though! And a REALLY REALLY NICE COVER!!!

How about jo-anna says farewell as mentioned as last track on cdon.com???

Log in to reply

Wow! really cool picture!
Per looks younger every day...

Wonder how “Kurt- the fastest plumber in the west” sounds...

I REALLY LIKE THE SLEEVE!! CD IS ALREADY ORDERED! CAN’T WAIT!!! SOAP RULEZ!!

Log in to reply

how come the cover is sliiiightly bigger on tdr / soap.com then? ;)

Funny how CDON doesn’t list the 2 CDs, but all the tracks in a row, but other sites *cough* just like to copy and paste, must be a great hobby.

Log in to reply

Wow... what a cool cover... really really cool.
I like the titles of the songs too. Can´t wait to have it in my hands !! :)

Log in to reply

can’t remember right now, but did he say anything about the instrumental ones? how many orchestral songs will be?
let’s take a guess...”Ronnie Lane”, “Kurt - the fastest...” and “Waltz for Woody” (I am SO convinced that the last two I’ve mentioned are going to be instrumental!!)

Log in to reply

GREAT!!!!!!
I WANT THE FULL CD NOW!!

Log in to reply

Very nice! But I don’t see any song in swedish, HE (Gessle) said the album would contain a mix of instrumental tracks and english and swedish songs.

I can’t wait to listen to it anyway

Log in to reply

Swedish? He never said that.
