thank you. it's good to have them all in one place, as they're spread all over the other thread.

I thought I would start a list with release dates as well

Release Dates:

• Austria: 05. Oct
  
• Belgium: 17. Sep (tracklist of the UK version)
  
• Canada: 18. Sep
  
• France: 17. Sep (tracklist of the French version)
  
• Germany: 05. Oct
  
• Japan: 03. Oct (tracklist of the Japanese version)
  
• The Netherlands: 14. Sep (tracklist of the the UK version)
  
• UK: 08. Oct (tracklist of the UK version)
  
• USA: 16. Oct
  

Do we have an official source / an statement from Universal for the release in the Netherlands aside from the information of bol.com?

:canada:I'm waiting for CANADIAN version...

It could be that Canada is the same as Belgium and there will be separate French and UK versions rather than everything on one edition.

Also I noticed the import on Amazon Canada that is released on October 16th is the UK edition and it's not an import from the US. So I don't really know what the US release date is. It seems unlikely that it's September 18th though or there would already be information out there.

I'm hoping iTunes starts offering pre-orders on the Canadian version on Tuesday so we can see the tracklist.

I thought I would start a list with release dates as well

 

Release Dates:

.

the import version on the german amazon website that is out oct 16 seems to be the US version. they've changed the label from "pid" to "Int.Us: Def Jam/Island".

There is a unique Amazon ID number for each item and the UK deluxe CD is:

B0090NNQX6

This is the same CD that is showing an October 16th release date on the German and Canadian Amazon.

I added the list to first post

I think the release dates being so far off (esp for the UK) are so that we can have fun working out the tracks and the countries.

When 'Elle Me Dit' was released in France, I couldn't buy it from here so I hope people manage to find links to sites which will trade.

(I'm actually quite happy with downloads, I don't need more actual clutter)

Release date for Australia is September 21st.

Do we have any more ordering details yet for other places not listed?

Release Dates:

 

• Austria: 05. Oct
  
• Belgium: 17. Sep (tracklist of the UK version)
  
• Canada: 18. Sep
  
• France: 17. Sep (tracklist of the French version)
  
• Germany: 05. Oct

• The Netherlands: 14. Sep (tracklist of the the UK version)
  
• UK: 08. Oct (tracklist of the UK version)
  
• USA: 16. Oct
  

21st of September in Australia.

Thank you for the list, quite helpful.

Yes, actually! No official statements as far as I know, tho. The Dutch Free Record Shop does, however, mention the same release date for the Dutch (=UK) version (14th of September). And even more amazing, they have three versions available:

Normal, UK tracklist for €15,99 (RELEASE DATE 14 OR 21/9/2012)

http://www.freerecordshop.nl/muziek/origin-of-love-mika-0602537150236

Deluxe, UK tracklist for €22,50 (RELEASE DATE 21/9/2012)

http://www.freerecordshop.nl/muziek/origin-of-love-deluxe-mika-0602537151516

Deluxe, FRENCH tracklist for €23,50 (Release date still 14/9/2012)

http://www.freerecordshop.nl/muziek/origin-of-love-french-mika-0602537140923

EDIT EDIT: Prices have changed again and the release dates as well. On Bol.com it's now all 21th. They are kidding, right?

Thank you for the list, quite helpful.

No pre-order as of yet, but they usually do offer this, so I suppose that's only a matter of time.

 

p.s. it says the 14th of September for the French version as well...which I do think it's weird since it's supposed to come out in France the 17th

The Free Record Shop Site offers the three versions in Belgium as well, no pre-order availible yet, though.

I heard from the marketing manager at Universal Canada and she said we are getting the France version so there is no special Canadian edition, sorry!

If you live in the US and want the French version it's probably cheaper to order from Amazon Canada however than getting it from Europe.

The swedish relese is the 19th of Spetmeber, at least acording to this site.

http://cdon.eu/music/mika/the_origin_of_love-21223191

But they also say that the release date of the french version is the 14th of September.

There are four different versions of the album on US Amazon.com --

all imports!

There's the standard Japanese version, which it still says will ship September 11 --

$43.36.

There's the deluxe UK version, which will ship October 16 -- $30.49.

There's the standard UK version, ships October 16 -- $25.99.

And there's one other standard version, I can't tell which, but possibly

Canada? It's a single CD. Will ship September 25 -- $23.49.

None of these has a track listing.

There's nothing about the album on US iTunes yet, although you can

buy the Celebrate video.
