He said and then HE said

I was looking at some of the things on DL.com and noticed something very interesting in regards to the talk about the Best Of in referance to how the process is going. Take a look here.

Joe said on 11.20: WATERLOO SUNSET" went down well with the UK office, but as much as the US liked it, they didn't see that particular song being a big airplay one, so they're still listening to other stuff! As I wrote in the liner notes for "BEST OF" "WATERLOO SUNSET" is a taster for the covers album which is yet to be completed (so as far as the talk goes of the record company not wanting to put it out, I can simply say that the album is actually NOT finished yet)!

Than Vivian said on 11.30: we did record a covers record early in the year which we hope will see the light of day at sometime in the near future

So, we have Joe and Vivian ten days apart saying two different things. Is someone fibing to us? Is someone teasing us? What's really going on? I bet no one really noticed this. I didn't even realize it til I read these. For some weird reason, I read them back to back and that is why I caught this bit of lopsided info. In ten days I don't think things went from NOT completed to completed. Espcially with the time line that Vivian gave. I swear, I'm begining to become a good detective when it comes to this band. It may be a few days late but, I got it. It really pisses me off that we are getting different answers from the band on different things. It's not just this that I'm talking about, It's been a lot of things. At least if you are going to fib (if one of them is) get it straight!
