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:

 

 

Wtf.... earliest to order get theirs last??? is that rubbish? godsake i will not order from them again... numpties :angry:

:lol: so funny i got rumbled too, and the dvd version wasnt in it :lol: :wacko: :lol:

He's seen the little extras of other albums I have in the drawer, he just never knew how they got into the house before!

And the thing is Lesley, they do wear out don't they, so having the odd one to fall back on is always a godsend. :D

Yes of course they do...it makes sense to multiple buy. Had to laugh at the little extras in the drawer comment. We must be all tarred with the same brush. :P

look forward to your take on it :dance:

Brilliant album, downloaded it but liked it so much that I bought it physically a couple of days later :D

 

Runaway and Come On are my early highlights. The album version of Jealousy is brilliant too.

 

Also loving the Moto Blanco radio mix on the digital EP of the single, it's not as classy as the original but highlights the melody a lot more I think. Pleased that he's heading for a hugely successful era!

Thanks for taking the time to let us know your opinion Rich. Am I right in thinking you've liked some of Will' s earlier material but were a bit disappointed in Let It Go, or am I mixing you up with someone else. :unsure:

 

Hope you are right that this album will be hugely successful. Will is justly proud of it & it so deserves to do well.

I didn't like Let It Go or Keep On as much as Friday's Child which remains my favourite album of his (until now possibly!). However, I saw him live on the Let It Go tour in late 2008 which was fantastic! :D

 

I'd hoped for this sort of album from him since I heard History last year so I'm pleased that he's gone down that route!

Nice to hear your thoughts on Echoes gooddelta and looking forward to yours Chris. Today it's all about Silent Valentine for me, it's just stunning. :heart:

Album Assessment: William Young ~ Echoes

 

 

All he needs is his echoes, echoes, echoes, etc. I adore Sir William of the Young and his fifth studio album is a right little bobby dazzler of a record. It's 10 years since William unassumedly took the audition stage of Pop Idol and did a quirky little rendition of Blame It On The Boogie. Since then, he's really grown as an artist and delivered some truly beautiful music to the world. After several listens to his latest disc, he continues to amaze and delight me and remains one of my very favourite male artists...

 

 

For this current piece of work, William sought out the ace producer talents of Richard X (apparently based on his work with Steve Mason on his 2010 album, Boy Outside). This match couldn't have produced a more perfect pairing if it had tried, because Echoes is an absolute wonder from start to finish. Rather than throw himself completely into a new direction, Echoes infuses his established signature sound and vocals with elements of dance floor eleganza into the arrangements of the tunes. Jealousy (the soon to be massive chart smash) is a perfect example of this - instrumentally joyous, uplifting dance arrangement that is tempered by the sad, wistful nature of the lyrics. There are more teardrops on the disco floor with (should be future singles) the gorgeous I Just Want A Lover (with shuffling, hand clap ready beats and an urging, pleading vocal from William); Hearts On Fire (seamlessly weaves all the themes of the album - both lyrically and musically - into one standout track that really flows with a swirling guitar, synthy electro beats and a lovely end of summer feel that is so perfect for the darkening nights); and the delicious 80s vibe of twinkly album closer Safe From Harm (complete with requisite falsettos and a definite doff of the cap to the works of Bronski Beat, Communards & Jimmy Somerville)...

 

Of course it wouldn't be a William of the Young album if he didn't add to his already amazing canon of beautiful, fluid, poetic balladry such as All Time Love, Leave Right Now and If It Hadn't Been For Love. Silent Valentine instantly sounds familiar - an anthemic tune that showcases both William's unquestionable vocal talent and his knack of delivering the perfect emotive depth & nuance required by the lyrics. Lie Next To Me is perhaps the most commercial and x-factor performance ready of the ballads with a production value that just soars and will have Gareth Gates, Westlife et al supremely jealous that they didn't get a look in with this tune. Finally, the heavenly, piano driven Outsider has all the hallmarks of the classic, simple type tune that Adele found amazing success with earlier in the year.

 

I can't recommend this album highly enough - it's not so much David Guetta dance as it is Baleric atmospheric, but it's beautiful and heartfelt, nuanced and sincere. Do check out the amazon mp3 bonus track with the lovely The Way I See & investigate his heartbreaking performance of Kate Bush's Running Up That Hill for live lounge. One of our nation's finest vocalists continues to soar...
