Release date information

"6 of 1 Thing" was released to the vast majority of Europe consumers on 18 February 2008. However, it was exclusively released to UK customers via digital download and compact disc on 18 February; online digital download site 7Digital and Woolworths stores across the UK issued the CD and maxi CD single on the Sunday,[1] 24 hours prior to the official release date. The reason for this exclusive early release lies unconfirmed, although some say 7Digital and Woolworths had made "special arrangements" with Warner Music Group so that they were able to grab more of the market than any of their rival companies.
