Flights are not that expensive anymore so who wants to see him....if he would tour less people would go to Vegas only for him and it will be more casual visitors and tourists then

He talked about the Christmas album. He said it's "not just a vanilla album written especially for the Christmas market". There are some covers but also some "bangers" And that it could have been written "just after Escapology".

No tour - if what I've picked up on Upfront is a correct assumption. I don't want a Buble type album - I want RW originality and it sounds like we're getting it. Also some kind of Christmas special - which is something he's really good at doing. It's going to be a busy end of year for him. This post has been edited by Laura130262: 9th June 2019, 11:09 PM

I think they will though.

That aside - some intriguing song titles Let's Not Go Shopping Happy Birthday Jesus Christ

I guess it depends on whether he launches it under the Farrell label, if someone else is financially backing it he might not have the full say in the matter I wonder if he will tour it afterwards ..

I think he's was musing on whether to do some covers because he thought that's what people expected of a Christmas album. But with song titles like Happy Birthday Jesus Christ - it's obviously not going to be a "normal" album so he might as well forget the covers. I hope he does too. Personally I don't think there will be a tour but who knows.

Casual listeners prefer covers on Christmas albums, but every artist also wants a few new songs to have their own Christmas songs.
