Well, maybe the upcoming TV and radio appearances will help.  |

OK Folks! Have to own up  I've succumbed and ordered a copy at Amazon UK! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif Wasn't going to - thought with seeing Hayley fairly regularly, I'd be able to get my copy signed anyway. Then I thought "The poor girl has signed 1000 copies" and we need to make sure they all find a home. So, if it's 'first come, first served' and I don't get one, that's fine BUT if I do, then it will be just as special as having one signed personally because Hayley gave her time to sign those 1000 copies and I think that was rather sweet of her i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBest wishes Grant |

Actually, no Libby. I prefer to have a few things signed for me that mean something. So that's a few CD's, some posters and most of my concert programmes i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifBest wishes Grant |

Hi Grant and everyone.
I refrained from commenting at the time of your original post on this subject but I think you are absolutely right, Grant, that was the second reason I ordered my copy from Amazon--the first being to add to the first week's sales (or pre-oreder sales) which ever rates her better, as well as the fact I thought it unfair to ask her personally when i have been so lucky to see her so often.
Good luck
Peter S.

Well, Peter, it is difficult. I bought my copy of Paradiso in New Zealand. I couldn't wait, and anyway it gives me head start in being able to post reviews and support the UK release.
Any UK copies I buy, and there are bound to be some, even if I give them away, will be bought in a supermarket if at all possible simply to support the stocking of Hayley's albums in supermarkets. That is where the sales are these days. We need those stores to get a positive experience from stocking Hayley.
I have friends who have asked me for copies of Hayley's albums in the past, knowing that I have the album and a computer. Instead of ripping an illegal copy, I go to a shop and buy one for them. Makes them burn with shame. Try it.

Well done Martindm. Burn in hell illegal pirates but perhaps I lack your Christian spirit!
Though that is an idea or Christmas. My computer diary has just flashed up a reminder to start thinking of Christmas presents. I t is horrifying the speed with which time passes these days.

Thanks Jim, I too received this email and link and I thought I'd mention that this "Making Of the Album" video is all-new; I don't think we have seen it before and it's very interesting! You need the direct link you posted to find it: youtu.be/AGHfZvRSXKACheers, Dave |

Yer.. me too!
Althogh some of the images have been seen before, it is put together in a different way and there are some new bits from Hayley. It is almost like one of her radio interviews, but with pictures. An excellent promotional video I thought.
It is wonderful to see a Hayley album being promoted like this. So much effoer being put in. I just hope it gets the sales it deserves.

Hello folks! I received the email too, but I didn't watch the video because I thought it was the one we've seen before. I have watched the new video now, and I'm going to post it on our Facebook page. Richard |

I was just looking at the Amazon.uk pre-order chart where Paradiso is currently at #17.
I remember Laura Wright's was in the top 5 the week before that release (although she had all the promotion from Classic FM radio).
