Lets compare:
Madonna and Per
Madonna’s new album release is 1 week before Per’s and her record company has given us:
Madonna and her company has given us:
1. 1 clip from the new song.
2. album artwork
3. lyrics to the new song
4. updated web site
5. names of all the songs on the album and info
Per/EMI has given us:
1. 8 Possible song names from the album and info
hmmmmmmmmmm

@ erweetiran
You are so right.
Madonna has cleverly drawn her fans into the whole release process with teasing snippits of the songs, the album and the artwork.
You can’t help but be curoius and excited about her release (I’m REALLY looking forward to this one).
Regarding Per:
I would have thought that someone with Per’s longevity and experience in the music industry would be an absolute MASTER at self publicity and promotion.
All he has given us to date are a few short interviews, which don’t really contribute to the release of a new album - We wanna hear sounds!
At this stage, I’m struggling to feel any positive emotion towards his forthcoming project.
Apathy seems apt here.

I do agree to this, but we still have a month and a half to go.

Well.... as much as I would love for SoaP to have as grand a promotion scheme as Madonna, I think we’re asking a bit much... Madonna’s album will be released in every market in the world; Per’s will make a splash in Sweden, but whether it ever gets released in other territories remains to be seen. You really can’t compare the two projects. We only found out about “Mazarin” a month before it was released and the first single was announced a week before it hit the air! Obviously whatever they did to promote “Mazarin” worked... I guess we just have to be patient and trust EMI (hard as it might be)!

Guys, just take a look at Robbie Williams’es promotion works before the release of the new album....
I don’t see any promotion of SOAP. They can’t even start a web site...
And Per is going to release the album in Sweden only!! What should do some thousands of fans outside of Sweden....?
:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((

In the beginning I was very calm and patient. But now I realised that there is so lil time left till the 23rd of November!!! And there’s nothing new. I hope that Per is preparing a nice surprise to us all...

We all know Per is not Madonna and he never be because they treat the public differently. Madonna and company is serious about pleasing thats just the point

yeah, but i’ve got the feeling that per likes madonna for some reason...
