Tracklist Timeless

[Harry]

I spoke to Gracinha afterwards and she said that she is indeed, the lead vocalist on most of the cuts (which makes me feel a WHOLE LOT BETTER). The release date is February 14.

Now THAT'S great news. I've been a bit hesitant to join this thread without some more 'positive' news like this. If Gracinha's on the tracks, then it may feel more like a 'Sergio' album, and not a Brazilian Black-Eyed Peas disc.

I'm a bit less tentative now in looking forward to the album.

This always seems to happen whenever there's news of an upcoming release from one of our favorite artists. Bits and pieces of info come through and everyone wonders what the heck they're doing! Truth is, I think TIMELESS will be a great deal of fun. Leave it to Sergio to (once again) come up with an entertaining and interesting angle.

I'm with everyone else. As long as we know that Gracinha's vocals are to be heard throughout the album, we know we're in good hands!!

According to the HMV Japan web site, the Japanese version of Sergio's Timeless will have a bonus track and be released January 18th.

I'm waiting to see if it gets listed on Amazon's Japan website. So far, not yet, but you can access it directly using Amazon's ASIN number in a search: B000AA4ML8. It is listed on Amazon's US site, but there is no ordering information yet. Once the label announces a release date to their vendors, we should see a complete listing for it, and it would probably be listed on the Japan site then as well

Poking around on HMV Japan, I see the January release for TIMELESS scheduled for Jaunary 18th as Steve mentioned. Artwork is now posted:

Yeesh! Are they trying to sabotage it with that cover or what?!

 

[Harry]

With the "sunburst" pattern, I'm reminded of a classic Disney cartoon!

Now THAT'S Timeless!

and not all-that-off-topic:

And that's also TIMELESS - and we're back on topic! Thanks!
