sariflor Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hmmmm...I must say that I quite like both the title and the artwork. It's definitely a pass with merit from me The only thing that bugs me is that it won't exactly roll off the keyboard when I'm trying to talk about it, like LICM or WAG . TBWKTM is just plain awckward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikjass Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 TBWKTM = the new LiCM It is just an abbreviation....long one, like HMDYLM. Do you think it's a nod to MJ? http://www.theage.com.au/lifestyle/people/the-boy-who-knew-too-much-20090626-czsd.html I am a bit surprised it has his Magic Numbers thingy on the front...and that they stayed up all night last night finishing the art and not 12 hours later there it is online. My thoughts exactly.. they finished it like this morning and straight away it's up also surprised at the magic number rosette there.. don't know if Mika actually had MJ in mind when he named it though, doesn't seem like the kind of thing he'd do, but then again.. who am i to know what he would or wouldn't do for real.. and yes another long abbreviation.. that boy just likes long titles i think..unless he is playing a fool with us.. and trying to cofuse us all:naughty: I don't think so because this phrase was simply the title of an article on MJ, after his death... I don't think Mika gives album titles as tributes to anyone, but more based on the content of the albums.However, i do find it possible that he read the article and thought that title was relevant to the concept of his album:wink2: I like your simpson's influence idea ... I like the cover and title.. though at first instance, i thought what then it actually makes sense... it sounds like a book title or a film.. i like it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xlindee Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 All right people, let's dispense with the horrendous acronym. I hereby christen this album THE BOY. Who is with me? YAY! And one must never name shorten it to TB, cause people might confuse it with Toy Boy. And if you ever shorten it to TB, you have to say something which makes clear it's the album.

Christine Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I like the cover and title.. though at first instance, i thought what then it actually makes sense... it sounds like a book title or a film.. i like it There is a Hitchcock film called The Man Who Knew Too Much and I'm thinking anyone who has ever used the phrase "the boy who knew too much" was playing on that.

lollipop_monkey Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 If I preordered the WAG album from Amazon I hope I will receive 'The boy who knew too much ' album Nah...I hope they've already printed 1,000 or so under the "We Are Golden" title, and we get shipped those for our preorder. We'd have a collector's item on our hands. I love the new artwork. I need a 12" vinyl of the album to frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
