Do we have official word of some sort that 'Black Cloud' is going to be a single?

 

[Kewpie]

No, but it's once rumoured to be next US single from YOR.

 

[mcrickson]

I know that..It's just with the Boy Happy single, we KNEW that one was going to happen..I hope we don't jinx it.

 

[Stanley the 2nd]

If Kewpie says it's the next single, then it's the next single. Don't argue.

I didn't say that Black Cloud would be next single.

It'd be enjoyable to see fan made sleeve designs.

 

[Billtwasreallynowt]

Dodgy single if you ask me!

 

[Fuzzy]

Black Cloud would be a fun single, if you ask me

Having said that... I suppose I'm kicking it off? I always loved doing this sort of thing... though THIS was a real pain, since I had insane difficulty finding a picture that I felt was recent enough and good enough for a cover! I wish the one I settled on was more exciting. That's the hugest problem I have with this!

Overall very boring (as should be expected of me!) but... there you go! I'd have tacked a B-Side on but I really have no idea where to put it...

 

[Kewpie]

Awww, thank you very much Fuzzy, it's very nice.

FYI, you should check out our master Alf Burton's work in here

I cant believe this cover would be chosen, but I like it.

I like it! Good job.

My entry would be a grainy black and white blow up of Julia's hand holding an airline ticket.

i think it looks amazing well done

 

[Kewpie]

Wow, Mr Springfield, Julie and Lori's efforts are also really amazing!

Hope many more will be added.

 

[The Cat's Mother]

One of the B-side tracks should be "I'm Looking Forward to Going Back" (yes, it's listed on Warner Chapel Music).
so its official?

Every time I read this song title I can hear "I'm Walking Backwards for Christmas" in my head. Hope the real thing won't be an anti-climax.



Both of these designs are admirable.
