August 24, 201113 yr Author MTV http://www.mtv.co.uk/news/will-young/32983...echoes-number-1 Will Young: "Echoes Is Probably My Best Record" 16:29, Wednesday, 24 August 2011 Will Young has exclusively spoken to MTV.co.uk about his new album Echoes, confessing that it is probably his best record to date. The 2002 Pop Idol champion, who looks likely to top the Official Album Chart with his fifth LP on Sunday, claims he spent almost five years perfecting the record - which he believes shows his growth as an artist. Speaking of the album, Young admitted: "I’ve been writing Echoes for about five years. It started when I was writing with Andy Cato and I was really interested with how my slow songs were being remixed and still really work so I thought, why don’t I do a record like that." "We did a song for Groove Armada's last record called History and that got a really good reaction and I just suddenly thought 'this feels right now' and I think if I’d gone from Leave Right Now to the new single Jealousy, it would have been too much of a leap. You’ve got to kind of evolve." When asked if he would now consider his new sound as "electro-pop", Young claimed: "I would say that’s correct, but I find it really hard to describe a record because I feel like it puts it in a niche. I wouldn’t say it’s out and out electro pop but I guess if you get more forensic, Richard X has produced it and he comes from a very pop background." "Steve Lipson has done two of my previous albums and he's got an amazing heritage from working with Annie Lennox to Grace Jones and Whitney Houston. He’s a great friend of mine, he’s like a second dad - so to move away to a new producer was scary but Richard has been brilliant." Speaking of what his fans can expect from Echoes, Will went on to explain: "I think the whole record is a different sound but what I’m really pleased about is when you evolve, it doesn’t feel like it’s gone too far. Even with the single, Jealousy it’s a very different sound for me but it still feels right." The 32-year old continued: "It doesn’t feel like I'm trying to be anyone else. I don’t think there will be anything on the record that people would think 'that’s a bit try hard' but there are some quite different songs." As for the positive reaction his new material has received, an overwhelmed Young stated: "I have got an impression that people are enjoying it and I can tell it from my friends. If they don’t like it, they just don’t comment but they're all being quite nice about it." "It feels great because I've spent so long on it, it has been a really long project so it would be really disappointing if I was just completely crazy and thought it was good but it wasn’t." He added: "I feel like this is a good record, this is probably my best record and that’s a really good place to be in. If you can still get that respect, then I think that's the important thing isn’t it?" By Joanne Dorken

August 24, 201113 yr A tweet from Sacramento, CA AvenueKJB KB #nowplaying Will Young - Personal Thunder <3 Edited August 24, 201113 yr by phil3579
August 24, 201113 yr Finally got my album from Play.com I was starting to get worried that I would not receive in time for the release of the 2nd single :P Still haven't got mine and it was despatched on Thursday. Starting to think it's been lost in the post :(
August 24, 201113 yr Still haven't got mine and it was despatched on Thursday. Starting to think it's been lost in the post :( Only got mine today,I actually went to the shops yesterday and bought another copy as I couldn't wait any longer!
August 24, 201113 yr Still haven't got mine and it was despatched on Thursday. Starting to think it's been lost in the post :( Hope it turns up Lainey. These play cds seem to have been sent out very haphazardly. Thanks for the tweet phil
August 24, 201113 yr Only got mine today,I actually went to the shops yesterday and bought another copy as I couldn't wait any longer! They state that it takes 3 to 5 working days for delivery, but they should have at least got them posted out so they arrived by mondays post at least for everyone, i ordered from there in the first instance as they had a good reputation for sending cds out early, Amazon seemed to have it in the bag this time, and i will be ordering from them in the future, yes very haphazzard :( i ordered an unsigned one and a signed one, when they arrived i had 2 signed ones, i just hope that no one has gone without. Sorry Shel that you have only got yours today and Lainey thats a disgrace, on their website they state that in the case of an item not arriving they cannot investigate untill 21 days has lapsed :angry: shocking
August 24, 201113 yr Well I suppose I have one for the car and one for indoors now :D Bev said she had one to play and one to lick :o
August 24, 201113 yr Glad to hear yours turned up at last Sunday. I wonder if it was part of the sales strategy to make sure the earliest to order got theirs last so they would buy again? ;) When my amazon one arrived today my hub (off work this week and last) exclaimed, "but you got one yesterday, and we bought one on Monday, because you said the one you were expecting hadn't come, so how many have you actually ordered?!" Talk about having your wings clipped. :rolleyes:
