Amazon.UK site keeps (5th of june) but I´ve received a mail that the CD has been delayed without any date. And,on Amazon.com, there is no more date, only "not yet released".

Mireille where did you see that?

on amazon.com I see still a date for May 9

(and again a price reduction...amazon really changes the price every day. How does that work with the pre-orders, do you pay the lowest price in that time period then, or the price when you ordered the item, or the price when it will finally be dispatched? Would be interesting to know that)

( or , how does it make sense then to change the price nearly every day, when you finally pay the price from May 9...)

See what I got, searching with "paul simonsurprise" :

"Surprise by Simon, Paul (Audio CD)
Popular Music: See all items
Buy new: $18.98 $14.98 Not yet released "

So, with the cover more.. and you´re right price changes every day. It was the same when I pre-order on amazon.co.uk : 2 pounds more (so, at the opposite way...) between saturday and the next tuesday,I pre-order.

What is the point of this story?

The title is just right!

The thought that release dates are reliable is woven indelibly into our hearts and our brains.

A record in the distance. But still without a sound that we Love.

In prior times we would have a single as promo-outtake around now. But my feeling is, that all the Old stars don`t bother putting out singles with a then also needed video.

Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder and Neil Young didn`t last year as far as I know.

First album-singles of Mr. Simon:

Mother And Child Reunion
Kodachrome
Gone at last (a semi-flop)
Slip slidin`away
Late In The Evening
Allergies (First flop)
You Can Call Me Al (a Hit in the UK)
The Obvious Child (not a big Hit)

Nothing official for The Capeman and YTO.

Hello Klausi

You made a mistake - although it 100% flopped, ´Old´ was released as a single in 2000 (maybe someday it will become a high priced collector item - the single has Paul as a baby on its cover. Seems he loves to have baby faces on his covers now.

No video for YTO, but Father and daughter got a video. I´m not sure if this song was ever really released as a single, but I have one of these radio-DJ singles from the USA. I think it was not released then, did not get enough radio plays... ?

Bodo, I´m not sure if this is really correct. Wasn´t the "Old" single just a promo, that is, not a comercial release?
Father and Daughter definitily had an official single release. It included the original song, an instrumental version and the video. It´s quite hard to get a hold of though - most items on sale on Ebay for example will be either a dj promo or the single song released as part of the Oscar nomination.

Hm, I don´t know it exactly Soren - I don´t have this ´Old´ single, but you could be right.
I have never heard the instrumental version of F&D... do you have that one?
