Look Up at the Stars... a dreamy sounding opening verse - his vocals always sounds very at home with this vibe. The chorus taking things up a notch is an unexpected but appreciated shift!

It will be the biggest crime if he doesn't get to perform this album live (with an actual crowd, etc) cry.gif

Can’t Imagine is a nice little outro, somehow it doesn’t feel like a fully formed song to me. It’s lovely though.

Can't Imagine is a cute way to close the album too, and I adore the very end with the spoken words, but otherwise it's not really any more than that sadly oops

Cool, that's good for now.

Can't Imagine is a cute little song to close the album, though not a major essential for me.

Overall... I’m really loving ‘Wonder’! It’s a varied yet cohesive album. The somewhat mixed reception to it & particularly how it’s performing in the UK chart is a shame. sad.gif Honestly I think Monster set the wrong tone to launch the album with, at least for this market.

Yeah I think having Monster launch the album was a major oops - it should have been one of Higher, Teach Me How to Love or Piece of You, and I think the support may have been behind him a bit more. They clearly wanted to push Teach Me How to Love to some extent anyway with it being chosen for NMF etc, or is that Spotify that decides that?

I really enjoyed that (especially reading your guys' comments alongside my first impressions). The album is definitely not what I expected - there are great moments of production throughout and he has experimented with different vibes. I'm a fan (and it'll probably grow once I can properly take more note of the lyrics which is hard on first listen). Another listen party in the future please x

Glad you enjoyed Bal! heart.gif We can definitely arrange another listening party for some point once we've all digested the album for some time *.*
