Collective Soul (2009 album)

Collective Soul, also known as Rabbit to differentiate it from the band's 1995 album of the same name, is the eighth studio album by American rock band Collective Soul. It was released on August 25, 2009.

Background

Rabbit is Collective Soul's first release with a parent label since the group started its own independent El Music Group label in 2004. It also effectively marks their return to Atlantic Records, as that label purchased Roadrunner in 2006.

Rabbit includes two songs ("You" and "Understanding") that were written by all members in the band, a first for Collective Soul. According to the singer, guitarist and keyboard player Ed Roland: "I think it's the confidence that the other guys have gotten in their music skills and the songwriting and also, for lack of a better term, me letting go of my ego a little bit..."

Track listing

All songs written by Ed Roland except where noted.

Request (broadcasting)

A request is a frequently offered feature by some form of broadcasting entity, initially started in radio. It is an effort by the broadcaster to become interactive with their audience, allowing a means for members of the audience to ask for something specific to happen; usually the playing of a specific song.

The most common form of this is the telephone request line, where listeners are encouraged to call a specific telephone number to a radio station to give their request. Disk jockeys then would use various forms of identifying that the song they were about to play had been requested, either by playing a jingle to that effect, mentioning the requester by name, playing back a recording of the request phone call or even taking the request live on the air. Many disk jockeys have built their entire act and reputation around their method of dealing with requests. Similarly radio stations have built their format around taking requests. Some stations have even billed themselves as "All Request Radio" which frequently results in them playing the current top 40 or other patterns of most popular songs, interspersed with old songs.

Request (Juju album)

Request is a cover album by Japanese recording artist Juju, released on September 29, 2010. The album features recordings of famous songs by Japanese female vocalists, mostly from the late 1990s.

Conception

The album was originally titled Juju Sings Beautiful Woman. After the album's announcement on August 4, a questionnaire was put up on Juju's website, asking fans which songs they wanted to hear Juju cover. Despite this, four songs had already been chosen for the album, "Gips," "Hello, Again (Mukashi Kara Aru Basho)," "Last Kiss" and "Time Goes By."

The album is Juju's second disc of covers, after the She Sings... second disc of her previous album Juju, which featured primarily covers of Western songs in English.

Promotion

"Last Kiss" was originally released in February 2010, as one of the A-side tracks of the four A-side single "Sakura Ame/Ready for Love/S.H.E./Last Kiss."

A cover of My Little Lover's "Hello, Again (Mukashi Kara Aru Basho)" sung by Juju was announced as a song used in an adverstising campaign for the Sony Alpha digital camera on June 4. The song was released digitally on June 16 as a ringtone and on June 23 as a full-length cellphone download, where it was extremely successful digitally, reaching #1 on the RIAJ Digital Track Chart. Due to this popularity, it was released as a physical single a month later, where it reached #15 on Oricon's physical charts.
