The biggest surprise and promotional vehicle
is the IYD trailer. And as far as the Secret Love video, I'm personally not anticipating that with much excitement anymore, exp. after seeing the far more exciting teaser for the album. When it drops, sure I will be happy, but mentally I've moved beyond SL - we've digested the song for almost 3 months - I want to hear an entire new track, which I'd be surprised if they released before the album drops. Back in the day of real physical singles, we would of already had 2 new tracks with the coveted B-side.
Over the next 4 weeks I expect, a steady climb in print interviews - where Stevie divulges even more detailed information about the record. The O Show (I'm keeping my expectations for this low, as not to be too disappointed) , The SL video, slow leaks of additional new publicity photo's, and possibly promotional streaming of the full album about a week before May 3rd. But I think the real kick-off will begin the week of May 3rd and after.
