So... Is this finally happening? Colour me surprised because she wasn't kidding when she mentioned on her BBC Radio 2 interview that her album was going to be released on November of this year. Anyway, regarding the info above, the vinyl is available for pre-order on HMV and you could check this here.

I assume this is a Europe + Micronesia release only? Has she ever actually seen an album released in the US?

Either way, I'm wondering if the picture below is the artwork or a placeholder, which is on HMV's site as well.

I wanted the US version since it was going to have some songs added and removed. “Radioactive” deserved a US release. The UK will eat it up though and she needs to focus on being an even bigger star there since she’s always landing #1s and Top 10 hits consistently.

I hope that is the album cover. IF it is, that has to be one of the most beautiful album covers I have ever seen.

Both links have been taken down. I wonder if it means that her team hasn't finalized the release plan yet.

I think it's the opposite and her team asked HMV to take them down because there hasn't been any announcement yet. There's some information that "Let You Love Me" will be released this week, so I'm wondering if the pre-order of the album is going to be with it too.

From Celebretainment: Regarding the album, she said the following: "Thank you for your patience and for listening. I'm so happy to release Phoenix. I'm really proud of this album and excited for everyone to hear what I've been working on. A huge thank you to everyone that's been part of my musical journey."

Confirmed by her. And the previous picture is indeed the artwork. There will be 12 tracks in the album (16 in the deluxe), including her previous singles "Your Song", "Anywhere" and "Girls", plus "For You", "Lonely Together", "Summer Love", her collaboration with Rudimental and "Let You Love Me".

I'm really excited for this. Rita has been producing bops.
I also think the dearth of big exciting pop music releases this year has me desperate for whatever we can get. Even if it's Rita. But that's a different point.

I’m so hype for this, but I can’t with the cover. Aside from the cheap border, that pic of her isn’t flattering at all. She’s such a beautiful woman, and that’s what they chose? Surely there were better options, like, for instance, an outtake from the ‘Your Song’ / ‘Anywhere’ photoshoots? (I actually wish they had saved the ‘Your Song’ single cover for the album cover, because I love that photo of her.) My only other nitpick is the inclusion of ‘Girls’...not only is it a shit song, especially in comparison to the other singles, but it was trashed by pretty much everyone and I didn’t think it did well enough to warrant a spot on the tracklist. At least its streams will help with certifications, I guess.
Anyway... I’m being a picky bitch. I’m just happy we’re finally getting another album from her. After so many false starts in the last 4 years, I was starting to think it would never happen, especially after she had such a huge run of singles in 2017 and still couldn’t get an album out. Better late than never!

Despite the severe, clear disconnect between the cover photo and the title, I will give this a listen on Apple Music when it drops.

I love the hook for Black Little Baby that she did with Iggy, so I will definitely give her a shot!
