You beat me to it. Maybe, just maybe, it's supposed to give the impression that she's floating!

I like it. I find the colours and white appearance to be calming, which I think will round off the experience of RTF and F by allowing the soothing nature to be overtaken by the soundscape we are yet to hear.

What is more important though… why is she holding a fold up 3D village on that sheet!?

They've made me think of SATT. It's difficult to recover from that.

I bet Sony will release the information about the single and album ASAP due to the PR fuck ups thus far.

Whilst I'm not too bothered by song titles without actually hearing the songs themselves, Sex, Power, Love and Money sounds like a Lady Gaga song. Between this and the fact she states 'I don't speak German but I can if you like' in one of her songs, plus James' attempts at German on Europa, I'm starting to wonder if Nicky has been secretly hanging out with her

Ah I see the Manic's fan "positivity" has returned! Haha.

Yeah it's a bit of a naff album cover and she looks a bit like she's floating... It could still be a good album though, yeh?!

This is what I'm most bothered about and I'm happy with the tracks we've heard so far. I was only poking fun in an affectionate way in my post
