Really disappointed with that, it's so bland and that font looks so cheap and tacky and I think the close-up of her head is too much. The only thing that'll save this is if they use those fancy new rounded CD covers...

I like the cover it's pretty iconic, I'd just use a better, slimmer font.

I love the cover, I'm with Vasil where he says it's iconic. I'm also greatly looking forward to this new album - am avoiding any of the free tracks or leaks and waiting to buy the physical album on Saturday though.

Got the album yesterday. Eschewed the limited edition version for $20.88 in favour of the standard version for $14.95 at Borders (email voucher). Liner notes are nice enough. Believe Again is pretty bloody amazing and very happy it's the second single.

There is a track near the end, I think it is #9 which is quite electronic sounding and thus amazing, it refers to a dream still being a dream even after you've woken.

It's all quite pretty and good but not instant. Still a great voice. There's not hundreds (or 5) HUGE tracks on it like there were on Innocent Eyes though.

I'm in love with nearly every track on the album! In This Life, Believe Again, You Will Only Break My Heart, The Guardian, Woman, Possessionless, God Laughs, Brave Face - they are all my favourites and i've only heard them through my computer thus far.

I do think this album is more British influenced which is probably why i'm totally in love with it. I really hope it does so much better then Mistaken Identity!

I think this is the best of her three records and, to be honest, I actually think her first album is weak in comparison to her most recent two. Really though, anything with "Electric Storm" on it is going to surpass previous efforts.

"You Will Only Break My Heart" is poptastic, I'm so happy she's visited this blend of pop on here and it's good to see she obviously LOVES the genre.

It's all about the Australian iTunes bonus track though, "Right Here In My Heart." It absolutely baffles me that it was left off the proper, physical CD release; it's one of her best, loveliest songs to date.

the albums a bit average... i was really dispointed as the quality of mistaken identity overall was fantastic

its way more experimental though ill give her that, believe again is nothing short of amazing though

Delta sang three songs on Sunrise (Australian's GMTV) and they were In This Life, You Will Only Break My heart and Not Me, Not I

thanks to silence for the videos!



Also in sad news, its been reported that Delta Goodrem's mum, Lea has breast cancer. That family have gone through so much, its just not fair!

wow - believe again is a bit epic, innit? have to say that i'm impressed actually, i always wondered what delta would sound like if she branched out into pop more.. still think 'in this life' is one of the best pop songs of the year, absolutely beautiful. and 'you will only break my heart' is a great, corker of a pop song.

haven't listened to the rest of the album properley yet, but so far, it sounds like a perfect example of how to make a commercial pop album without having to sell out.

My album came today...good day for me with the new Brit album and this to listen to.

I don't like the new font - I miss her signature style logo, shame they ditched that.

Believe Again is a great track - great choice for a 2nd single, You will only break my heart is such a pop song for her - love that one.

I find with Delta songs/albums that they take time to grow so i'll have to wait but on first listen i'm not liking posessionless or God Laughs, although it does get better after that. I'm not going to judge it properly until i've heard it a few times yet because I know it took me a fair few listens to get In This Life and that has turned out to be one of my favourite songs she has ever done - I absolutely love it.

I feel so sorry for her though, she should be on top of the world with this album going in at number 1 again but all that will be on her mind will be her Mother's fight with breast cancer. The girl has had more than her share of sorrow over the last few years :(

I know its just not fair. This was Delta's chance to comeback and be possitive again and now this. Its gonna be hard for her to see her mum go through the cancer treatment. But she can empathise as she will know the drill.

My album came today though i've had all the songs for nearly two weeks but there you go. I think the order the singles should come out in the UK should be:

1. Believe Again
2. In This Life
3. You Will Only Break My Heart
4. Brave Face
5. The Guardian

For once I want us to get 5 singles as Australia usually do. Though i reckon they should change Brave Face to Possessionless in Austalia as the 4th single as they seem to love it over there.

I love Possessionless, and God Laughs. They're genius.

I think the order of the singles should be:

In This Life
Believe Again
Woman/God Laughs
You Will Only Break My Heart

Love them! But I like most songs just because I like the way I cna picture a video for them.
