Who's gonna take my place and stand by your side?

Ahhh! Guess who's just put out the title and cover (I think) of his debut album?


In case you can't read that (sorry, biggest picture I've got at the moment), the title is Stand By For..., which I just love. The photo is, if nothing else, better than the one on the single. May 23 cannot get here soon enough.

(Edit: err, on second thought, that may be old news that I just didn't notice the first time, though I did pick up on the release date earlier...not sure how I managed to do that. Oh well--sorry about that, if that's the case. I'm still excited anyhow!)

The artwork and album's name were indeed published today on Måns' official site. Måns' site had previously announced the album's release date, but nothing more (that's the same day you posted that info on your blog).

I found out about the album's name at the end of last week though... it was on one of the Swedish retail sites... I think it was CDOn.

I do like the album's title, and the artwork is... well, Måns really doesn't know how to take a bad picture (for the most part). If you pre-order it from his site (via Bengans), you can get an autographed copy.

Have you seen the new poll? I'm wondering if Måns' "people" read your blog and/or comments, because, sure enough, one of the choices on the new poll is "A Date With Måns"! Oh the possibilities... (And Måns does swing your way, PG!).

Thanks for keeping us all informed. Not really sure about the cover.

It reminds me a bit like the ark from a few years ago. The ark are huge in italy btw.

Mans looks like he's being crystallized here. Oh, PG, someday your Euro-prince will come.

And Kev only knows Mans is straight because he hit on him, I bet. So hook up with him already so K can live vicariously through you...

Oh, good, I feel slightly less crazy now, Kevin--I think they must have gone back and edited some of the old news, though, because it included the title and cover, which really confused me. And I instantly thought of you when I saw that poll--someone must be listening to you; quick, wish for something else!

Pinkie (and J'ason), I'm not totally sure about the cover either, but then again, it's rare I like these things instantly. It's a shame for Sweden that Italy doesn't compete in Eurovision, then--that'd definitely increase their likelihood of getting points!

One day, J'ason, one day. I think he's got a long-term girlfriend, though. None of the guys around here are secure enough to wear a little makeup and they certainly aren't making amazing danceable pop music...moving to some country in Europe may become necessary!

Err, right. Robbie, don't be so envious, green is not really your colour. Moving on...

It's never been a secret here in Sweden that Måns is straight. Outside of Sweden it's a different story. Everybody wants him to be gay (every gay man that is), and the "rumours" intensified after those pix of Måns snogging Sebastian started circulating all over the 'net.

PG, yes, Måns has a long-term girlfriend (since before Idol 2005). Her name is Helena Thiman, and while she is not Hagsville, she has definitely lucked out with Måns... ha ha. She looks a bit like Jessica Simpson, at least on the pix I have seen.

Ah, yes. So how is Sweden this time of year, Kevin? A bit bridge and tunnel?
