I like this photo.

And this quote (from the article) :

« Les bonnes chansons ont la capacité de toucher le cœur dans ses douleurs, ses échecs. Mais elles servent aussi à faire la vaisselle ou servent de toile à la romance. Elles peuvent tout. Elles ont le pouvoir d’apaiser, de donner du courage », affirme Leonard Cohen.

Babelfish. For the no comprendo

"He can love the shape of human beings, the fine and twisted shapes of the heart. It is good to have among us such men, such balancing monsters of love."

I have been dutiful, patient. I have not misbehaved. I have not listened to previews and free downloads. I have been silently waiting for the postman to arrive with the limited edition album. I have a frame ready for the lithograph. The album was posted on the 26th. It is now the 30th. Aaaagh!

Hi Lizzie,

We have the same problem, the album and lithograph has not arrived jet.
But we are not so strong as you are, we listened already several times.

I'm still waiting. What is worse, I'm getting no reply from the company selling the limited edition, even though they say, "we will reply within 24 hours". Hmmm.

Dear Willy & Wijbe , and Lizzie ,

I also have not received the new CD and lithographie yet. My son Luca ordered it for me (Christmas gift) , so I am also patiently waiting for listening to the new CD. I had a copy in my hand on 27th january in Berlin in the shop, but did not buy it , I just kept it shortly in my hands , as I want to wait for my special Christmas present :oops:
I hope we all will soon get it.....I am longing to hear the new OLD IDEAS ...
hugs

Hi Wijbe ,
I have just phoned up my son Luca, but no CD yet and not Litho....he ordered also the Vinyl for himself :D
So I might be one of the few waiting to listen to the new CD....and considering I had a CD copy it in my hands in a shop in Berlin on 27th January , but I resisted to buy it just knowing it will arrive soon ... :oops:
What a patience it needs... :roll:
Love

Andrea, I still haven't received mine either and with all the snow and ice now, it's not likely to arrive any time soon. But could wait no longer ... last Thursday ordered it from the Fnac website ... it arrived the next morning just before the snow. You are just sooooo patient ... :D

Go to Starbucks quickly!! :D

Starbucks is selling a different version of Old Ideas. It's the same cover and same songs, but there is no jewel case. Just a two-fold cardboard!

No, it's here in No. California too. Has anyone bought that version? Is the inside design different?

hi mnkyface,

I bought a cd from Starbucks and the inside has a picture of the lithograph and two sleeves, one holds the brochure of songs etc. and the other sleeve holds the cd. I bought it to add to my box set of Columbia Albums Collection. Much better than the plastic case.
