Trialling Text in White

I had some feedback on my digipak and album cover recently and it was suggested that I try the text of the title of my front cover in white, rather than black. I have tried this and it really doesnt work:

I much prefer the black text to the white because there is a shine on the tree coming from the sunlight which is white and the white text just blends in with it, making it hard to read. Although the white text goes with the back cover better, I feel like the black works better in terms of standing out and also as a marketing technique as people are more likely te be drawn to a title that stands out.
