Those of you in the US and Canada, beware..the DVD is not compatible with dvd players in N. America...US/Canada uses region 1 (I believe) and other parts of the world (including Japan) use Region 2.

EDIT: There's also regions 3 and 4...

Too soon for that!  

PLUS these are imports--amazon.com usually has the cover pics for the US releases, sometimes for imports as well, but usually no.

I've noticed that they tend to post the tracklist right when the album gets released, so we'll have to wait until early sept for the White houses single info (of course this could be different for the US release & other countries) and mid sept for harmonium..

It's an import.

Although, I can't believe it would be released in Japan before the U.S....does she really have a larger market there than here?

Making my DVD player regionless was the second thing I did to it, the first being disabling macrovision. If anyone needs help doing this kind of stuff, I know where to get the information you need.

Well, the pic was the same but the cover was different.
This one is exactly the same as WH, except the font and the name ("Harmonium" instead of "White Houses").

That's exactly what I was wondering. I called FYE today, and they said that WH isn't on their list of CDs for CD release dates... :?
Well, then again, they FYE people here are pretty much dumbasses. They told me over and over that they didn't have any of Michelle Branch's singles, but when I went to look, they had 11 copies of "Breathe", and 2 copies of AYHN.

I know-Ive seen her in heels plenty if times. Im not talking about cheesy platform nasty heels. Classy cute ones would look perfect there and I have seen her wear them many times before :)

Oh and the single was released today to RADIO (officially)
The cd single was not released today and as far as I know it has no date for release. Unless Im mistaken or a Vinyl single was released.

CD-Singles don't always get released in the US, to my knowledge.  An artist's (in the US) debut single almost always gets released as a CD-single in the US, but the follow-ups hardly ever do.  There was the US ATM cd-s, but not for OD and PB..........

Actually an OD US single was released... i think today was the official release date for WH on the radio.

About the heels - I know she wears them a lot and stuff. I just meant it's typical of her to wear a very pretty dress and then wear shoes the absolute opposite (i.e. stuff that doesn't match). You probably didn't understand any of that.

I can never get anything across properly, haha.

don't be so mean. he has a typing problem. lol

"i want to order the song really bad, but i don't want to order it over the internet and take chances. can someone tell me, who ordered it, if it's just White Houses on the single, or is the another song with it?"

i think that's what Steve is trying to say ^
