SF has a lot of potential, largely due to its cast & crew--arguably the strongest ever assembled for a Bond film (first-ever Oscar-winning director, two Oscar-winning actors *plus* two multiple nominees, etc.) That said, until folks actually se…

Like others here, iTunes U.S. didn't release my preorder, but instead just put it out for sale. To avoid being charged twice, go into your iTunes account and look for the "Manage My Preorders" link (near bottom right); click it, then click "Cancel"…

=bg= wrote: N/A on Amazon, either. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias=digital-music&field-keywords=adele+skyfall I posted the link myself earlier. It'll probably go on sale there at midnight PDT.

It's after midnight BST. I wonder if iTunes UK preorders will jump the gun by a few minutes? =bg= wrote: I mean, I had the Arista rep fedex me the new Whitney to my house, and I'd drive down and put it on. But the new Whitney didn't hav…

And just in case you don't trust iTunes, it's listed at Amazon MP3 (U.S.) as well. They don't take preorders, but it does list October 5 as the release date; I assume it'll be available there by morning.

I think I was the first to notice days ago that the countdown clock on Adele's website was going to 0:07 Friday local time (I'm in U.S. CDT) instead of 0:07 Friday BST, but it's working correctly now; under 27 minutes to go. :)>- The iTunes d…

There's one small problem with the countdown clock on Adele's website: It counts down to 0:07 (7 minutes after midnight) Friday in your time zone. Thus, at present it's only accurate in the UK and other places where local time is UTC+1 (BST, WEST,…
-
For those who think it's not powerful enough, I suspect this 1:30 snippet is from early in the song; it'll be much stronger at the end, as in classic Bond themes. (That's where Tom Jones passed out, and Shirley Bassey before him almost did.) Not t…

From reading the article, he's not suggesting people will go see the movie just to hear Adele sing the theme; he's saying "Skyfall" the single could be bigger than Skyfall the movie because it's the first new Adele material since 21. If it's even a…

Quote: "New singles are usually released on Tuesdays." (Quote tags messed up) That's here in the U.S.; it's Mondays in the UK. (Not to mention digital outlets can release ANY day if the label says so.) They could drop it on Bond Day; or they c…

I could buy the explanations given if the song had been heard in HMV's Oxford Street flagship store; but Guildford is outside Greater London (though in a bordering county), so IMO it's a smokescreen. Could HMV release the single in its UK stores on…

I usually sit thru the end credits, but EON's not gonna announce the next title. It's been just "James Bond Will Return" since AVTAK, whose title was given as "From a View to a Kill" (same as the Ian Fleming short story) at the end of Octopussy--th…
