It's the shortened radio edit, correct? I'll wait another 6 weeks for the album version. Unless, someone would like to share? :wink:

I'm sorry, but Journey are just stupid some times. What is the point of a single at all when A) radio won't play it, and B) YOU SIMPLY CAN'T BUY IT!!!

Note to Journey: Fan with money, willing to buy both your new singles (and buy them yet again on the full album release) seeks the singles! Hello!!!!

Bone heads! :roll:

Where can we buy these singles, anybody? I tried walmart (negative) Frontiers (negative) Amazon Uk (affirmative, but not for my region or my money :roll: ) amazon US (negative).

If Journey refuses my money, looking for somewhere to borrow. Anyone?

Here's a link to purchase on iTunes, but I think it might be the New Zealand version of iTunes. I wonder if this will let people in the US buy it...

Listen, guys, we've known for a long time that the album would be available in the U.S. on May 24th. They're releasing the songs in the U.K. right before they start touring there ... just like they're doing here! :idea: :lol:

You need a regional billing address, just as with Amazon.
Already, COH (and probably Human Feel later today) can be found elsewhere for the grand price of nothing more than your scruples. Creative googling will help you if you want to go that route.

I think Human Feel has a better chance on the South American Charts. Right now, Foo Fighters and Iron Maiden are duking it out at the top of a lot of rock charts down there.

The strange thing is, they are still releasing COH two months before they hit the UK. The song might very well be on the downswing by then as classics like DSB start getting prominent airplay again as the tour swings into action. Just listening to the promos here, it's all about the hits and I would imagine the Europe tour will be billed as the same thing, three classic Rock bands doing a greatest hits tour.
The UK charts are easy to keep tabs on so at least we can track it's progress leading up to the album's official release.

lol ... I think they're doing this right (unlike the choice of the first single to be released). They already have your ovaries begging to be fertilized, so I'd say it's working. :lol: :twisted:

And you can convert it to mp4

Not working...


other things can capture too, but I think it's illegal. Since they don't want to sell it, maybe they won't mind

Andrew was right, City of Hope rocks. Even for a radio edit, this is great. Anyone found human feel yet?

Thanks for the link! Sounds pretty cool on the 1st listen. And Dan, this method of release is retarded. In a day and age when bands don't want their songs illegally downloaded, releasing it in one area over another is just ASKING for it to be ripped off. :? I have money I'm WAITING to spend on this, and I can't buy it because I don't live in the UK? NOT smart on their part.

I am a cd collector and will buy anything that Journey ever releases, but they're going to miss out on money for this single that they could have made from me, is all I'm saying. :wink:

Their first UK date is two months from now. Human Feel on the other hand is being released during the middle of their South/Central America tour. I guess there is some kind of method to what they are doing that is escaping us.

Sounds great. Loved the intro. Journey should donate all proceeds from the single to the Japan relief effort or, at the very least, half. It would be a great humanitarian thing to do. And it would give them publicity, too, for the album, while doing something good.

But I really interested in Human Feel. When is that single being released?
