It's amazing that apparently you can get a physical CD printed and delivered in shops faster than you can get a song available on iTunes. :roll:

Anyway, the parties who are responsible for getting the song on iTunes are aware that many are waiting for this to happen, and I'm sure they are doing their best.

Too much energy... :roll:

Hey, thanks, c. :wink:

...
I've heard a preview of DWA on amazon.com, and whoa, it sounds a whole lot better than the radio rip. If only I had ordered the single...baah, 43 days left until the album

Thanks for the heads up! I went to Amazon MP3 on my phone and picked it up for .89 cents. It is so awesome.

Edit: This version is so much better than the radio cut.

Edit: Bought 2 copies so far. :p

Just bought the mp3 from Amazon, because i'm too impatient to wait for my CD to turn up lol. Great song, loving it more than the radio capture on Youtube.

Can't wait for the new album.

You won't believe if I tell you what I had to do to get that preview from Amazon :shock:

And... it's not much better than the radio version :twisted:

MP3 is MP3

Lisa · **Posted:** 04 Feb 2010, 10:06

what did you have to do? :shock:

LanaVdV · **Posted:** 04 Feb 2010, 10:28

Well, since I couldn't listen it from the site, I did some manipulations to catch the link in the status bar. Then I made a screenshot and pasted it into PS. Then used it to type the link correctly - letter after letter

After all this I pasted it into my browser and downloaded playlist. Opened it with editor and took the direct link. :lol:

And after pasting this one into my browser I downloaded the song... huh )))

POTF just wrote they've been making the video for DWA

I wonder how it's gonna look like.

iTunes gets an update every week, right? I thought here it was on Tuesdays... Or do they always updating the store?

I got my cds today \o/ And it's awesome, especially the album version

Now, when can we pre-order the album?

Alphawolf · **Posted:** 04 Feb 2010, 21:41

Just ordered my copy today (a bit late, but well, only the late bird catches the worm (right?

) ) \o/

Now that it is out can we get the official lyrics?

Danny · **Posted:** 06 Feb 2010, 16:19

It's on the single?

Raspu · **Posted:** 06 Feb 2010, 16:20

Also see Sarek's post on the page before.

POTF_Admin · **Posted:** 06 Feb 2010, 16:26

I will also post them on the lyrics page as soon as I have a spare moment.

You might want to take a look at the band's Twitter feed.

It was posted on Twitter. It is also here in one of the threads somewhere I think.

Do you know when the "Dreaming Wide Awake" video will be released, Admin?

Only what the band said, which is "very soon".

I thought they'd update the store constantly, but now I think it must be once a week..

Video premiere is tomorrow! I guess it will be less CGI and more performance (like D4T).

Actually D4T probably has the most CGI of all POTF videos, every single thing expect the band & instruments is rendered. LUTS on the other hand has very little (if any) CGI, and the only real trick is the motion control camera that allowed combining multiple shots.

In any case, DWA will be the first POTF video ever with no CGI or other computer tricks whatsoever.

It will also focus on telling a little story, rather than a band "performing".

^Sounds Cool :roll:

That's the man!

Arvigeus · **Posted:** 09 Feb 2010, 18:00

I stand corrected...

So the video will have some "real" actor(s) (other than band) like Samuli Vauramo in Broken Promises (and Mark won't be the protagonist)?
We'll see, we'll see...

Thanks for that link!!
I'm just watching it for a short time, and Poets of the Fall - Diamonds for Tears is already on! And I haven't seen a bad song yet. I want a tv channel like that here too. Finns just have a great music taste.
But how do you know the video premiere is tomorrow? Have I missed something, is it announced somewhere?
Would be great though, I love most PotF music videos, so I'm curious what they'll make of this, especially after what I've read in the posts above.

You might to want to take a look at the band's Twitter feed (which is also mirrored on the top right corner of this forum), and this was also announced on Facebook.

Ah yes of course. I do follow their twitter, but it seems I just missed that one as my head is full of exams. But that's really great news though, thanks

Dreaming Wide Awake is up on the Zune Marketplace. Didn't think they'd actually get it up before iTunes. :shock:
