Is there any release date for this new single yet? I assume it's held back as it's not been put up On iTunes since the premiere midweek!

The album is apparently out on 20th October so the single will probably be 13th

Listened to this a few times and I'm quite liking it... it's really not a comeback single to build on his previous momentum though is it? I was expecting something a little more radio friendly from him.

About time. He's been listening to a lot of The National and Talk Talk apparently - sounds PROMISING.

I LOVE THIS

I adore Ben Howard's music in general but this is on another level entirely.

The other option is that they make it an instant grat when the album goes up for pre-order

^^Thats true if like to see more artists do this as it wouldn't be totally OAOS but it would make sense. For instance The Script or Maroon 5 could have done this last week and I'm sure Maps/Superheroes would have stayed steady in the top 40 at least!

I Forget Where We Were has been released to itunes so I assume it's the first single maybe?

Either way, I'm going to have to accept that he's changed his sound a little bit on this album and that things just aren't going to be as melodic as they were last time around. They're both okay tracks but my expectations for the album are definitely much lower than they were before.

I'm liking both of these though I think 'End of the Affair' is the much better of the two.

1. "Small Things"
2. "Rivers in Your Mouth"
3. "I Forget Where We Were"
4. "In Dreams"
5. "She Treats Me Well"
6. "Time is Dancing"
7. "Evergreen"
8. "End of the Affair"
9. "Conrad"
10. "All is Now Harmed"
11. "Am I in Your Light?" (vinyl-only)

I like the singles! The title track is far more commercial than anything he's released to-date but that's not to say it's a bad thing. Hopefully he'll be able to build on the momentum created with his BRITs wins/"Only Love" to get another hit out of it. "End of the Affair" is sublime though, it'd hardly feel out of place on Every Kingdom (again, not a bad thing). I'm very much looking forward to hearing the whole thing now!

I absolutely love 'I Forget Where We Were' as an album title! Particularly fitting for the follow-up to a successful debut, I feel (although thinking about it, 'End Of The Affair' may also be very appropriate, who knows unsure.gif).

Really like what I've heard. 'End Of The Affair' is lovely heart.gif. His voice is very special.

Also, he did Live Lounge this week and managed to make 'Hideaway' tolerable ohmy.gif, if anyone's interested:

The album doesn't sound as commercial as everyone thought it would be oops

I really feel like there is a lack of progression on this album. Way to similar to the first without the decent melodies. I dont know, was so excited and I really want to like this but i just can't

I was anticipating this so badly then got a bit wary after hearing the title track... but listening now and am really enjoying it, it's definitely not as commercial but everything feels like it will grow.
