The World Is Mine!

My album’s out on CD today :D :D :D

It’s twelve dollars on its own (it’ll convert to whatever currency your country is), seventeen if you buy it with 117% Complete, and we’re also selling a t-shirt for eighteen:


Harry Moon!

Thanks for being patient with this, and I really hope some of you make the effort to buy the physical disc – I put a lot of work into it :)

If you’re not sure whether to buy, here’s another track from the new release, “Georgia”, to help make up your mind:

  • Hannah Banana

    Hooray! Georgia sounds excellent :)
    Well done Alex

  • itiselizabeth

    I can't not buy these things, I've been looking forward to them for so long!
    <3

  • Amy

    Ordered the t-shirt and the CD:) sooo excited. georgia sounds aweesome:) x

  • zehraaaaaaaaaaa

    YOU ARE A GENIUS <333333333

  • caitlin

    WOOP! i bought charlies tee the other week and now im going to buy your new cd! Do you think Alan will combine the orders or will the t-shirt all ready be on its way? i guess i better ask Alan rather than you :)

  • Chandni

    im about to pre-order :) YAYYYYY
    harry moon <3
    and GEORGIA IS A BRILL SONG
    i saw your 'georgia' youtube vid and loved how you said 'the Bob's have invaded' lol
    anywayy, the album looks great!!
    xxx

  • itsabbiee

    ahhhh!!!! georgia sounds amazing!!
    I was rofl at harry moon :)

  • Vanieztia

    Heard Georgia a hundred and three thousand times (lol) but every time it still makes me smile. Although, I still argue that when you sang it at Bury it was the best :)
    And of course I will buy the album! No debate

  • Rachel

    So I just got excited for a legitimate reason to use the currency converter on my phone. I worry about myself. But that aside, despite my lovely student debt (I have to pay rent over the summer on a house I wont be living in till sept, not impressed!) I shall go and pre-order cd as based on Georgia & The Time of your life it is going to be rather epic <3

  • username1117

    Nerimonsters hahahah. What did you think of the video for Alejandro? The cinematography is beautiful and I love the dance/stomp part that the start.

    Georgia is so bop-inducing, there is no denying it!

  • Chandni

    i also enjoyed being a NERIMONSTER
    aswell as NERIMOWNED in that other video :)
    xxx

  • k_e_l_l_i

    <3 <3 I read that and I was like, “Oh, YES, I'll have to just stop at Target on the way out and buy it!” . . .*thinks a minute* . . . “Oh, wait, crap. They don't sell lovely stuff like your music in American Target stores.” -_-
    So that leaves ordering it online later.
    Or buying it on iTunes.
    Or both. :)

  • fantasticfran

    awesome :) does the t-shirt you're wearing say 'a million and one thousand things'? or am I imagining things lol?

  • itiselizabeth

    Yet I decided to buy them separately, I'd end up paying more than a second lot of postage if I got them together due to import tax cack. Also I will get the physical lovely cd a tiny but sooner!

  • http://obsessivepessimist.deviantart.com Annie

    Looks like you've actually put an obscene amount of work into all of this, Alex. Well done, Georgia is awesome.
    I've already ordered the T-Shirt, but unfortunately probs won't be able to show you since I live in Hertfordshire, and there's no way I'm travelling all the way to London for extortionate prices (14 quid? I think not.) just to show you your own product. That, and I am disgustingly broke.
    I am, however, debating drawing some Harry Moon fanart just because he (she???) is that awesome. Hope you get loads of sales!
    x

  • Tyler

    Bought your CD ($12 is about the perfect price, btw), but I won't be picking up the t-shirt, seeing as I have already spent too much money on Threadless shirts this month (oops). Anyway, the design for both CD and T-shirt look/sound amazing, keep up the brilliantness.

  • Annie Dollie

    Oh my Gosh! Im so excited! Cannot wait till your cd is delivered! Am off to order it right now!! have been waiting for ages! Im glad you stuck by your 6 page booklet :D Congrats. Love, Love, Love <3 x

  • Ben

    What ever happened to this album coming out on the 28th and being twinned and all that?

  • Charlotte :D

    i noticed the crack a few weeks ago and was so tempted to say, but i never got round to it. Rather scary stuff ;) i love the t-shirt and am very tempted to get it and travel down to london and wondering around wearing it on the of chance of making your life ;) haha. hope sales of it go well :D x

  • Amanda

    This is completely brilliant… especially Harry Moon. Unfortunately, I just spent all of my money on new furniture, so hopefully i can get my hands on $18 before the t-shirt stops being sold.
    Oh yeah btw, the changes to the website are lovely.

  • Emmy89

    I was gunna wait and just download the album… but after watching that vid I really want the 6 page booklet. It sounds awesome! hmmm….

  • http://alexdaymusic.com Alex

    Nothing happened. Both those things are still happening. The album comes out on the 28th, and it's twinned with Charlie's :)

  • fdhelfgkh

    How do you afford such a nice place in London? JESUS!

  • oliver ronaldson

    please please please put it on itunes

  • Rachel Macallan

    I'm putting a lot of faith into this purchase. Parrot Stories was exactly the right length and pace -matched perfectly with my daily cross trainer sessions… I have to say I'll be highly disappointed if this isn't as convenient…

    JOKEZ I'm sure it will be ace xxxx

  • Anna Schneeberger

    Hi Alex!!
    Congrats on your new album!! But I have a couple of questions
    1. I ordered a candy floss shirt and it hasn't come yet. Have the candy floss shirts been shipped out yer?
    well actually that is just one question my other one was already answered. And speaking of the crack from doctor who, me and my friends were walking around and the sky was completely covered with clouds except for a crack that looked exactly like the one from doctor who. we all started screaming and tried to take a picture of it, but all we had were our camera phones that suck :(
    Keep making amazing music!!

  • Lizzie

    I love Georgia – that video made me smile, and the fact that you based the song on that made my day :)
    You're music is as awesome as always :)

  • http://www.nvhtf.webs.com/ Rhys

    Album looks awesome, i'll hopefully be able to pre-order it :) T-shirt looks awesome too. btw i searched 'Nerimonsters' on youtube just last week so it's a bit of a coincidence that you said it :)

  • Beth Ashworth

    going to preorder now :)

  • http://youtube.com/thepeteris The Peter

    Georgia sounds great. I'm loving the production. I think you might be right about Tom doing his best work when it's for you. I hope most of the album sounds more like this than “Time of your Life”.

    Though, I will admit that after listening to “Time of Your Life” a few more times, I appreciated it a bit more. I still think the instrumentation is a bit too simple and cliched, but if your aim is making hit pop songs, then yeah you're doing it right.

  • Chrissie

    your album came out on my birthday. This is FANTASTIC! <3

  • theendofme

    I'm definitely pre-ordering these.

    Also, I got my Candy Floss t-shirt in the mail today, and it's amazing! I love it. :)

  • http://alexdaymusic.com Alex

    It'll be on iTunes at the end of June, but I'd highly recommend getting the physical. I put a lot of work into it :)

  • Sheila

    I did not know of your existence until yesterday. I spent the whole day stalking you on youtube. Today I bought your cds. You must be some kind of genius.
    Your new fan,
    ~Sheila~

  • Dasimado

    Am I mistaken or does your t- shirt have your head and the line from 'Holding On' on it?
    If so, where the hell can i get one? :)

  • Dasimado

    If so, where the hell can i get one? :)

  • The Peter

    Also, you will be selling copies at Vidcon, right?

  • Hey_roger

    Okay, the Harry Moon shirt is super cool. But the Holding On one that you are wearing in the video is supermegafoxyawesomehot.

  • Hey_roger

    Ho, and weren't you supposed to cover a charlie's song ?

  • Lily

    Georgia is possibly the best song ever written based on a piece of paper someone threw away XDD
    just one question, will The World Is Mine be available for itunes mexico?? because parrot stories wasn't, which was depressing =(
    … or maybe I can bully someone into lending me their credit card so I can get the physical cd (because I NEED the Harry Moon t-shirt) =D

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/starrider121 Emily

    thanks for the new CD and all the work you put into it and keeping the booklet 6 pages for us :D I think the eyes of the Harry Moon T-shirt are really wierd @_@ kinda like strange frogs… or birds, I don't know. Anyway, buy your CD as soon as possible!

  • http://twitter.com/BeckiiCruel Beckii Cruel

    Alexxxx

    I can't buy it! I'm not old enough for a Paypal. It's a shame for us cardholders under 18 D:

  • Lily

    hold on, I don't get it, does the t-shirt come with the cd or is it just the shirt for $18??

  • http://twitter.com/Tennath Spring

    *rocks out* I've been having the chorus of Georgia stuck in my head since The Zone!

    Thank you. Really. I had a shit day at work. Then I come home and see the Harry Moon shirt. It completely 180d my attitude. I had a giggle fit. Now I want to see Tuxedo Hermione.

  • http://citysparkle.tumblr.com Jade

    The fact that you recorded georgia as a proper song for your album is the best thing ever.

  • LizzyLovesYou

    Ha, I can “like” this blog post on Facebook. I find that amusing.

  • Mel

    HELLO ALEX! :D It's my birthday today and I wanted to tell you that you are awesome and you are the reason that I've taught myself the guitar and the ukulele!! Also I LOVE DOCTOR WHO! :D xxxxx

  • kaylap

    WHAT'S ON YOUR SHIRT??
    DO I SEE YOUR LYRICS??? :O

  • Sarah

    I can't believe you actually made Georgia into a legit song, LOL.
    It sounds totally awesome!

  • http://twitter.com/misskrystal0 Crystal Hill

    Hey there. I know I'm not Alex, but I hope this info helps.
    I ordered a Candy Floss shirt and it just came in the mail today! I was checking the mail on the way out of the house to hang out with some friends and got so excited that I almost changed shirts in the car. :D Also, I live in Ohio. Soooo. I hope that helps.

  • Olivia

    Alex, i really really really really love that you put Georgia on your album(: i thought it was brilliant. i saw the e-mail about this CD and i got really excited :D congratulations on the new album <3

  • Mortadelle

    What? You mean… I just bought it (before I even saw the blog), the physical copy (I love physical copies and I am very happy to contribute to your wealth). But if I want Charlie's, I'll have to pay for shipping again?
    But… I can't wait THAT long for your album! I don't understand, help!

  • Mortadelle

    I guess we're a bit responsible for that, eh ;) Watchin' his vlogs, buying his music… You're welcome Alex LOL :D

  • melissa =)

    oh my gosh the crack!, in the music hallway in my school thr r like 4 cracks in th wall and i was like O.o… doctor? and i really want a harry moon shirt, two of my fav things, harry potter and sailor moon =)

  • kaylap

    Oh, and the black CD will make it impossible to sign.
    If I ever go to London, will you let me meet you?

  • Anna Schneeberger

    Thanks :) i live in Colorado so i guess it should be coming soon :)

  • xSoupyTwist

    Ah haha, I remember that video for Georgia. I wonder what happened to Georgia.

  • http://twitter.com/LouisaLoon Louisa Unwin

    saw this blog in school today. nearly started hyperventilating i got so excited! :) I hope my parents will let me use their card… otherwise im buggered

  • isabel.B

    Okay I'm a little confused. Don't get me wrong, I've already ordered the shirt and album, and i'm very excited to get stared at while wearing it :]. But in previous posts/videos you've mentioned that you like to have the t-shirts mean something or reflect something important about the album. So unless harry moon is your muse than i don't see a real significance. Haha and who drew it?

  • cellardoor

    ahhhh! today it´s my birthday! actualy, 3 hours ago was my birthday. Just the night before that, i decided to subscribe to your website. On my birthday lunch i got an e-mail that said ¨My new CD is available now¨, i guess that what i´m trying to say is that i´m on my way to purchase it as one of my birthday gifts wich will mean that someone in Venezuela, thanks to coincidence, is going to have you CD withing 14 to 30 days… so, thanks for my birthday present and congratulatios Alex!

  • Helen

    I've had the same that my ordered candyfloss t-shirt hasn't come yet… I guess I 'll have to wait a bit longer as it's travelling across the pond to me here in LONDON!!!!!!!

    btw LOVE HARRY MOON!!!!!!!!

  • http://twitter.com/hellomadworld rafaellaishappy. ^^

    i must say i was a bit scared when i entered the website. it looked different! but i liked it. xD
    also, i cant wait to listen to the whole album. weeeee! :D

  • http://elinious.wordpress.com/ Elinious

    Mine came in today (the Netherlands)! Haven't had the chance to try it on yet, but I can see it's high quality and the artwork is awesome <3
    I'm sure it will come soon!

  • mrsnerimon

    ahhhh! omgosh im soo excited! i am going to download RIGHT NOW! i dont do physical discs sorry alex, but hoorayy! love the geroge song and also time of your life <333you

  • http://www.youtube.com/user/starrider121 Emily

    Hey!! I just got the Candy Floss T-shirt!!!!! It's so cool, I love it <3 Thanks for making it!

  • Billy

    i just ordered it an 117% and im well excited
    i had to get the physical thing so i can stare at it and sing myself to sleep with my voice quietly saying “one day” like the crazy stalker i aren't
    but seriously i had to pay the extra shipping and disc amount so i can read the duck lamp story

  • alejandro

    Do you know when the Parrot Stories CD is going to be available again? I was waiting to buy them together and now it's sold out! =(

    I'm really exited that you decided to use Georgia for your new album, when I saw the video I just died, you saying “What I like you to do in the comments, please, is just say: do you want Georgia to leave? Because I think it is an important issue.” It's the most brilliant moment I've seen on video.

  • TheViewer

    I liked the Georgia song when you made a Youtube video out of it – I never thought you were going to publish it ;) I think I'll go and see that video again.

  • Christina

    Im obsessed with this song! This is the seventh time i've come back to your blog to listen to it :)

  • Tibi

    I have been following your blog and videos for the last few months, and I do admire your style and personality. I've been writing songs for the last 4 years, but I just got to the stage of recording/producing my music. I hope to get feedback from you as soon as I'm done. :)

    I only pay for music that I find truly inspiring. That being said, I would like to share my opinion about Georgia. I do appreciate odd time signatures and 'chaos' in music, if it is used wisely. In this case, it's too chaotic for my taste. (the snare fills in the chorus don't really fit). The song seems somewhat rushed. I would have done the vocals differently at some parts, and your singing is a bit raw at times. There are some minor pitch issues you could have avoided (at 0:21 for example).

    All in all, it's a catchy, addictive tune. Sorry for being so picky. :)
    Your fans will probably not notice these minor flaws (flaws in my subjective opinion). Our own mistakes are the hardest to spot. I thought you might like to hear a less biased opinion. :P
    I look forward to hearing more of your work…

  • Bud

    I'm buying your stuff!! Good job. Charlie Still on track? He hasn't said anything lately….

  • http://twitter.com/CherryTide Lucy Pullen

    OMG FANGASM!
    I'm so, so excited for your new album to come out! :D
    Except… Georgia kinda ruined it for me. It's catchy and fun and stuff, but I guess I liked the more acoustic things you do better. But I can't judge an album on one song- I can't wait to be able to hear all the rest!
    <3 <3

  • Emma

    Alexxxx, you are so awesome :) I can't wait to listen to the album, i love your music!

    I was going to buy it on iTunes, but then i realised it isn't up there, Which is a good thing, because its making me consider buying the actual version, which will obviously be better. But the problem is that i don't really want to ask my parents for their credit card :S
    So, is it worth getting the actual album over the digital version? Because it will cost me more (which isn't really a big deal) but ill have to bug my parents for one of their credit cards, and i don't know what to doooo.

    Oh and will there be a blog or a video or something telling us when it goes up on iTunes, because otherwise i'll be checking like every day :P

  • janitorbud

    I missed something with Harry Moon. Can someone explain?!

  • http://hagiologynet.wordpress.com/ Chloe

    I went for the “don't think, just do” approach, and clicked through everything so quickly I didn't have time to regret spending (what converts to) $55.50 on the CD and the shirt. Then an email popped up, and I was like “oh wow, I *did* just do that… Am I not going to LA in less than a month, and trying to save for said trip??”

    Damn you, Alex, and your addictive amazingness!! :P

  • http://twitter.com/BeckiiCruel Beckii Cruel

    ordered! :)

  • Sarah Jacques

    :D, brill, cant wait for the tshirt :')
    &i got my candyfloss tshirt today :) thankyou so much xx

  • poppybottle

    I got my candyfloss t-shirt today, and it made me so happy :D I am wearing it right now! :D x

  • http://zoeyblogs.wordpress.com/ Zoey
  • emily elizabeth

    yay! i really like Georgia! and i got my Candy Floss t-shirt in the mail today! i love it! i'm wearing it right now!

  • Fredi94

    who would have thought that something so grate would could have come from finding a piece of paper on the ground

  • Lily

    ok so I did manage to get a card and just bought both the CD and the T-shirt and I'm ridiculously excited about it =))
    I usually don't pay for music (let alone physical discs that I have to pay extra shipping and wait a long time for) but I just couldn't not buy them so thanks to you I'm no longer an online shopping virgin =DDD

  • Anna Schneeberger

    Mine just came :DDDD i love it soooooo much

  • Charlottebryceson

    I too would really like that t-shirt…I am an au pair for 3 little French boys, and when the youngest one can't sleep I sing Holding On and he nods off within minutes! This song has saved my skin on a number of occasions, so I would very much like the t-shirt!!

  • http://www.youtube.com/itsamemyleo Myles Wheeler

    Wow!…
    Georgia sounds great, quite a unique sound. Even on the 1st listen I was tapping my foot to it. Awesome tune Alex. ^__^ Can't wait to hear more from the new CD.
    - Myles =]

  • Sun Surf Smile

    Is there anyway maybe you could sell the t-shirt you're wearing? Or was that not a t-shirt you made for “Holding On”? Thanks:)

  • Carys

    It's not orange!! Disappointed.

    I'm joking of course, it's beautiful. And will be awesome, I'll bet. Probably won't buy it for a while (or the tee shirt, which means nothing to me really, since I don't know what Sailor Moon is, but it's awesome anyway), as I've bought a ton of new clothes and stuff recently, so I'm pretty skint. Life sucks sometimes.

    Anyway, if the new album is in any way as good a Parrot Stories was then I'll promote it with all my guts (Georgia was great, I'm sure the rest will be amazing). Promise. But I won't do that until I've heard all the songs.
