Here's to hoping! With Kevin Jonas as her new management I don't see why she wouldn't be coming over here to tour with the boys, it'd be perfect for her. I kinda agree, Eternal. I think Emergency (911) lets the album down. The last 3 are good songs, just don't really fit in there. Love Faith and The Cure though.

I hope so :) Oh RyRy, the album's all new and shiny, I haven't stopped smilin since 9 o clock haha. Aww, I can't believe it's finally here.

Anyone notice on that interview on the last page she says 'request Battlefield, SOS, Walking On Snow' Walking On Snow 3rd single? I hope so! Boooooooooo! It'll have to be knocking around some where,it'll definately be around tomorrow when it's released on iTunes in the US!

Japanese bonus track - Landmines... Can't wait for that to leak, fits in very well with the Battlefield theme!

Thankyou :) And I completely forgot about Amazon, i'll hop on it at once! Silly silly prices aren't they, at least it'll sell though. Anyone who actually physically owns the album, did you notice the front cover lines up with the back cover, making the deluxe edition cover? Madness

Me too, and Papercut and Postcard but you can't just download them seperately on Play...HMV etc, does anyone else know any other (legal) download sites except them and iTunes? (My iPod touch fell out of my pocket outside and I didn't realise until it had rained for two days = dead iPod) I'm back using my Microsoft Zune so iTunes is useless to me!

I. Am. In. LOVE! I love love love it! My favourite's probably Walking On Snow so far! There's not one track I dislike. I'm not the biggest of fans of SOS (surprise surprise...) and I think I was the only fan in the world to not be a huge fan of Freeze on the last album. For me, this is this albums Freeze, hopefully it'll grow! HMV are selling the download alone for £5, can't complin with that! It's advertised across the top of page aswell on a banner so hopefully that'll boost sales. Still haven't seen the advert though... it's good they've put money into a TV advert but if they think that's going to replace the success physical promo from her in the country would create, they'll be sorely mistaken!

I must admit the album art's 100% better than expected, it all gels together quite beautifully really. It's a huge improvement on her first album.

Got my copy this morning, about to take my first listen. I ended up actually waiting outside HMV for it to open...that was a bit embaressing on my half!

Oh that's absolutely ridiculous. Her management is an absolute joke if they wanted to mess around and be arses about it they should have put No Air on instead. Argh!

Appppparently there's a HMV advert knocking around the telly! £7.99 there, i'm up at the crack of dawn to pick up a copy, or 4!

Bingo ;) Nah, you're entitled to your opinion of course, maybe it's just what the critics see as a vast improvement on her last album. Who knows, only Monday will tell for me and I can't blooming wait

I second that: Entertainment Weekly That the opening guitar line of ''Walking on Snow'' — the first track on Jordin Sparks' sophomore set — sounds like a close cousin 
of the riff that kicks off Kelly Clarkson's ''Since U Been Gone'' should come as no surprise. One couldn't blame Sparks, American Idol's sixth-season champ, for attempting 
to mirror the career trajectory of the 
original-flavor Idol: a decently received debut followed up by a pop masterpiece with 
 multiplatinum sales. Battlefield certainly delivers on the artistic end: It's packed with more hooks than a 
 fisherman's tackle box, none better than on the gorgeous title track, which sports a soaring chorus. When Sparks hits that ''Better go and get your armor'' bridge, you can practically feel the wind whipping through your hair. Second single ''S.O.S. (Let the Music Play),'' with its refrain copped from Shannon's 1983 dance classic, may not be thrillingly original, but resistance is futile when Sparks, showing heretofore unseen vocal dexterity, takes to the dance floor to ward off a vixen who's barking up the wrong boyfriend. Battlefield actually contains enough 
potential hits to keep the singer in heavy 
rotation until well into Idol's 10th season: The music-box piano on ''No Parade'' breaks your heart even before she gets to the bruising chorus, while ''Watch You Go'' recasts her as a fickle R&B temptress. Sparks even co-penned four tracks, including ''Faith,'' the best AI anthem the show has never had. Kara DioGuardi, you've been warned. A–

After all the hype it appears it's not that great after all... on Monday will tell for me!

So potential in the charts anyone?

I'm so so tempted but we've waited so long and it's only 5 days away...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/gregjames/2009/...din_sparks.html Greg James interview from a few weeks ago. Starts at 2 hours 8 mins.

Which? The single just hasn't been promoted very well at all, and the death of MJ stalled it even more... Hopefully it'll pick up once the album drops, but how she's gona have time to promote it when she's on tour i've no idea!

Love this song, think it's a good choice for the second single but as you said, won't be very appealing to anyone but current fans and tweens...

Oh God. With all these leaks I can't resist. MUST. STAY. STRONG. 2 weeks.... 2 weeks!

I second that! Apparently it's from a shoot lastyear but it's only just been released... Did Avril even have a career last year?
