I didn't say whether the concept was good or bad. I just said the the covers don't mean anything if people don't get the chance to hear the songs. And I think it's a bit stupid to keep talking about a concept when the majority of people haven't had the chance to hear the songs properly. It's pointless to keep talking about a few pics...and try to explain a "glorious" concept when the majority of people couldn't care less. Besides, imo, the concept is over-rated by some of the fans and imo it's not really that new to her.

Imo that's wrong, she should promote her songs; this way it seems that the "concept" is what's important and the actual tracks are way in the back waiting to be heard.
