a question for glenn, global release day starts on Friday July 10th, will your Spotify sorting hat be switched to Friday updates from then onwards? as today is the last "New Music Tuesday" for Americans.
getting use to friday new releases is going to be strange.
in the UK new releases has always been Mondays, i thought Mondays would been a logical global release day - fresh start to the week = new releases.
discussion from 2010 @ npr
Why Albums Are Released On Tuesdays In The U.S.http://www.npr.org/sections/therecord/2010/09/08/129725205/why-albums-are-released-on-tuesdays
I reckon one of key reasons for Tuesday release days in the US were historically associated with logistics i.e distribution physical product over such a large country. But in an era of streaming and downloads, to carry on with Tuesdays seemed a relic of the past.
but why friday and not monday. I wonder if the spotify top mngt agreed with the friday decision?

Yes, I'll be switching the Sorting Hat to Fridays starting 7/10.

Weird that "Coming Down" (from 2011's Only in Dreams) is getting a single release now. Decent enough b-side, though.

"Coming Down" was used on Orange is the New Black recently, not sure if that's why.
