Amazon has Songbird available for order now- it will be released on June 24. Looks like the booklet has an interview with Christine. I imagine the first question will be “Who came up with these songs for a career retrospective?” LOL!

I’m going to buy it. I wasn’t a Judds fan, but Naomi’s death reminded me to appreciate any output Christine can put out at this point in her life.

Sorry one for album, and one for CD.

I saw this the other day but I have not yet committed but will end up buying it. I love the booklet interview LOL

I love all her songs so you cant really go wrong although some of them would not be my choices. But sometimes its important to explore songs that are not your all time favorite.

Same here. I wasn't about to set myself up for disappointment, so I look forward to these "remix" versions.

I’m with you and jbrownsjr on this one, and I’ve decided to order my copy. This may sound weird, but Naomi Judd’s death has changed my perspective on performers, especially ones I grew up with. And I wasn’t even a fan of the Judds, but I am a fan of Christine, or at least her music, so I want to let Christine and her record company know I want to buy her record, and to keep the products rolling. Besides, I don’t even recognize most of the songs on the upcoming cd, so this will be like new material for me anyway.

And if Christine wanted to go on a small, intimate tour to support this album, I would go to it, even though she’s in her 70s and can’t sing anywhere like she used to. My comments can be squeezed in between comments by other people saying she should retire, that she shouldn’t tour anymore, etc LOL.

A big pre-order list really promotes the album as it enters the charts high. Remember Buck/Vie debuted in the top 20 because of all the pre-orders

I think Celine Dion's last album went to #1 then it was the only album to fall off the chart after week 1. I had heard somewhere that all the promo stuff was returned and that pushed the sales to almost nothing.

Wow! And unlike $tevie, Celine can still sing, right?

As long as the old goat can still spin, chasing that tin can of coke.


I'm still waiting for the bedazzled power wheel chair, with streamers trailing as she duct tapes the left turn button down.:laugh::wavey:

Our band has been chucked to the wall like an already broken vase. I guess that vase broke long ago. That's when I needed it, when I need it most.

I may be a dreamer, but my hope is that there is enough interest/sales in this album that they decide to issue a proper "Essential" album and include "I Can't Help Falling In Love", "Got A Hold On Me", "Love Will Show Us How", etc..

I would love all that too. I would also add Too Much Is Not Enough. But beggars cant be choosers I guess. I would love a 1984 live concert audio too ;)

BTW

I JUST PRE ORDERED MY SONGBIRD CD TODAY.
lets make it go #1 pre-order

I know. I just keep screaming, "But why????"

Why wouldn't you do this right?

Let's face it, the band of our lives is finished. People are clinging to the sad remnants of what's left. I wish they'd just toss in the towel, because it's that bad.

You’re right, I’m afraid. But they’re not done extracting every last dime from their beloved public.

I do wish Christine would just do one more album with her at a piano and some judicious vocal dusting.

Better still, I’d welcome Otis Span’s ghost back to his piano...

That would be wonderful, but she can't even play Songbird any more. Her hands are done? Sure seems that way. So sad watching a pitiful ending...

The old goat(Mick, too) will do it until they fire up the creamatory, but I thought the rest of them would know when to pull the plug. I guess stardom is addictive.

Is this a recent change of heart? Because you’ve posted not that long ago about your anger that if Stevie hadn’t fired Lindsey, FM could still be recording to this day, with or without Stevie. I’m not baiting you, btw. I actually feel the same way.

Without Lindsey, FM has no creative process left. They know that. But let's sell some tickets watching the old goat pathetically attempt to spin around like a drunken sailor.

Pathetic ending to the band of my life...

Got an email from Amazon yesterday. CD now arriving June 29 or June 30.

Its hard to get excited for songs that I already have. But I cant wait to hear the new Songbird, the movie song, and hear the remix on my Bose system.
