U.K. 'Silver Cover' 2nd To None Confirmed

I am so glad they are useing this cover and not the one with elvis' face split down the middle.

I must admit that I go for the Canadian and UK cover, if that's what they go for! It holds a natural link to the first one. Then we'd go for the bronze on the third one!?

I much prefer the black lettering/silver-gray background cover, and I wish it was the one being used in the U.S. as well. I think it's much more in keeping with the idea that "2nd to None" is the official follow-up to the hugely successful "30 #1 Hits" compilation. I'm so sure of its superiority to the "half-face/half-#2" design that I fully expect the new disc to do better sales- and chart-wise in the countries where its used. The cover being used in America won't matter to diehard fans like me -- I'm going to pick it up whether I like the cover or not -- but casual Elvis fans and curious pop/rockers contributed greatly to the success of "30 #1 Hits." Replicating the original cover in black and platinum/silver gray would more likely pique their interest again. People/collectors tend to want a complete set. The half-face cover isn't nearly as likely to regain the casual buyer's interest.

Well as I'm from Germany I'll try to get the UK Edition than I hate that other cover :(
