That was my first thought too. A whole lot of words to say absolutely nothing.

Retro. :)
Hey, don't knock it. :shhh:

Please do share if you manage to get a hold of the Qobuz link in the meantime. :pray:

Got a feeling this one is not coming out April 3 irrespective of the time zone, but on April 3 CET or BST.
I'm not going to share when it's out tomorrow. But I do think this will be another drop after first play, so UK tomorrow morning

Doesn't seem like there's a midnight release for Australia.

I prefer it when we all get to hear the song at the same time … of course it’s a crap deal for those in non European time zones
you could say conventional ... and I could claim intentional

I'll try to see if with a VPN I can see if it shows up sooner, but I doubt that will be the case.
They will surely use European time for the global launch.

Is the video also presented at the same time as the single?

Anyone remember if Loneliness single was connected to the video release time period? They both came out on Jan 31, but I think the EP was available earlier.
Have a look at my taste in music:

That’s the thing about negative energy, about hatred. It can be positive. It throws into relief all the things you know you like. It tells you, by elimination, what you’re about. Sometimes you can only define yourself by what you hate. Hatred becomes an inspiration; it makes you think, “What I’m doing now I totally believe in, and I don’t care what other people say.” Guided by hatred, you don’t have to follow the herd. - Neil Tennant

No luck yet, tried all the usual countries I grab from, so think UK after first radio play

Did anyone catch the boys' April Fools post on Instagram yesterday saying the video to DS was 'streaming now'?? My heart jumped for a split second! Post was deleted pretty quickly.
my life is a mess, like an unmade bed....

Didn't see that. It would have been better to make people believe the single release is delayed, to avoid disappointement 😁

I haven't had any luck either. I have connected to several countries and there is no launch.

As I said. I think it will be a global launch in European time, although I will keep trying. When it's 11:00 p.m. I'll stop trying because it won't make sense anymore... :mrgreen:

Without a doubt, it will be a launch in European time. I have not found anything in the different countries.
So we'll have to wait. There are only a few hours left.
