    Where is this photo from? I think I saw somewhere that Amazon US was showing exclusive slipcase for the CD, but I can´t find it on their site... Looks great!

    Yes ! there seems to be quite a buzz around this release! Rolling Stone compared the record to her 70's-80's dance tune hits.

    I believe it’s from a French Vogue cover story and shoot between 1994-1996? Not exactly sure of the date.

    I wonder who she thought about when singing this song? The fans? Berry? Her mother? Her children?

    SuperDeluxeEdition also posted an article announcing the album as well.

    Thanks, but I meant that actual photo of the CD release? Apparently this version comes in a slipcase...?

    Edit. I found it, it´s an Amazon exclusive. I just ordered it, along with the regular vinyl.

    Really liking the new single. There's a great article on the BBC News website/app about the album and single. That's what I like to see, plenty of respect for a legend.

    It's interesting the Amazon UK is talking about their Exclusive CD as per the image below. It's the same price as the normal edition and with the same track listing. It seems like you get an additional sleeve for the price. Perhaps others here will know more?

    I assume the Amazon exclusive is the same as the regular one but with the additional slipcase.

    I was really liking this… and then those awful spoken bits in the chorus kicked in and ruined it

    I think it will contain additional packaging rather than additional tracks.

    Wow. Just got a chance to listen and the single is phenomenal. She is crystal clear, no to little vibrato, crisp. This shouts old-school soul!

    ... and here's Universal's news on the various formats - I'd also love a souvenir limited edition 45 of the single in a nice picture sleeve as well, for old times' sake!

    I pre-ordered the bundle from Universal as well. July/August will mark 58 years that I have been a fan of Diana Ross. It is an incredibly happy thing to still have her and for her to still be making new music. I love the new song and I can hardly wait to hear the rest of the album. Congratulations Miss Ross, you're still the one.

    Overall I like the new song "Thank you". Best parts are the sample of "You're All I need to get by" and the chorus, which becomes quite an ear worm. Good message to the song. Weak part are those spoken bits. But I like it.

    I hope the album will be as solid. My only concern is that she co wrote all the songs. I hope her collaborators reigned in any tendency to write Secrets of a Sparrow type lyrics.

    And being real here, this could be her last album. HOpefully this will be a good one to go out on. Last song title, Come Together, is intriguing. Given that she exited The Supremes with "Someday We'll Be Together" and the last song on the new album is called "Come Together" I can't help but wonder if she's making a statement about the importance of togetherness.

    I hear Diana in the background vocals - any idea if anyone else is there in the background with her ?

    The new single is so perfect, it blends her 70's Motown classic soul sound with her 80's/90's soft pop post-Motown musicality while still sounding fresh and 2021.

    The new video is EVERYTHING. I love the concept and the remastered clips. Only imagine that whole 1994 concert remastered in that amazing quality!

    The song [[I mean, the chorus and pre-chorus) reminded me a bit of Jamie Cullum's Mind Trick. Am I crazy? They have a very similar jazzy/soul/pop vibe.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS3XXDQoZkc

    It's so great to see Diana doing high quality music again.

    It hurts to think this could be the last Miss Ross album. She's been in my life since I can remember. I cannot remember life without her being in it. I have tears in my eyes just typing something like this. I don't even want to think about her not being on earth.

    That being said, I HATE pre-ordering albums from Amazon. I like to go into the store the day of the release and get it. I really want that slip cover, though, so I guess I will. Ugh!

    To each his own, but I love the spoken parts. It adds an additional richness, and her spoken voice part is not strained.

    It states she recorded multiple albums

  37. #137
    I feel the same. I get tears in my eyes thinking of the day when she will no longer be with us. It will be so empty.
    However, she seems to be in good health and will hopefully perform one or two more years.

    It is unlikely to be her final album unless fate steps in of course. I am told there are already plans for a follow up album, but of course we must not look too far ahead. Let us take one day at a time.

    Agreed that house in mix sounds like it was recorded right out of a popcorn box it’s as bad as it gets but I’m sure someone will come along and make an incredible mix or we can all dance and have fun and enjoy the worlds ultimate entertainers music again

    This morning on the Today Show, Diana's new release was one of the headlines opening the second hour. Later, Carson Daly played a bit of the video during his PopStart segment.

    It is really nice to see the attention this release is getting.

    Yes it is, Reese! Fun and exciting. Hard to see that a new single by a heritage artist will really make much of a chart-dent, but I'm having a great time reading all the [[as usual) positive press and excitement about Diana.

    I was given a very rough copy where her vocals did indeed sound sub standard. A few weeks later i was allowed to listen to what i was told was the final mix. She sounded much better. Therefore i conclude either some of the vocals were re-recorded or the producer worked his magic in the studio. Whatever the reason behind the improvements i feel much more optimistic about the album than i did previously.

    I am very surprised that super-private Ross and her new team would have allowed two different versions to be leaked around the globe. It is also interesting these leaked versions never make it to any social media platform.
