Posted May 19, 201114 yr http://www.takethat.com/news/2011/05/take-...27progressed%27 Looks like they're doing a 'Fame Monster' - 8 track new song disc and the original album on the other side. I thought they'd leave it until Christmas, and I'm quite shocked that they've amassed so much new material already, but it will tie in nicely with the tour. I wonder how many of these songs they'll perform on it, if any...
May 19, 201114 yr Sounds great, 8 new tracks really make it worth buying. It's almost another whole album.
May 19, 201114 yr Author Shame they won't do an option with the standalone new tracks for £5/6, although I'll definitely get this anyway...
May 19, 201114 yr Well its at least it is a proper deluxe, 8 new tracks is good to get so i will be definitly buying it, i wonder will this chart as a new entry on debut week or will we just see progress climb up the charts and count on to its total weeks?
May 19, 201114 yr I think it will chart on its own but the sales will be attributed to Progress (the reason why Progress is disc 2) at least thats what i hope anyways..ideal scenario, number 1 spot for progressed and another 500k on the albums sales and perhaps a live album for the xmas market alongside the blu ray Edited May 19, 201114 yr by jay727
May 19, 201114 yr Ya, i would love a live album to be released on the back of the tour as im a huge fan of live albums and with take that it will definitly sell. I meant to say the cover for progressed is horrible, does anyone else think the same?
May 20, 201114 yr Given the luke warm reception to "love love", this may not generate loads of new interest apart from die hard fans but I think its a good idea and a worthy re-release.

I expect the same will be true for Progressed :)

I meant to say the cover for progressed is horrible, does anyone else think the same? yeah i think the album cover is very strange, surely they could have used another shot for it instead of changing it to red :/ lol im very interested to hear that Gary song he sung in LBDS, apparently some people have already heard it (called 'Dont say Goodbye') and said it's a really lovely track and very much like something from BW
May 20, 201114 yr I don't mind the cover, hopefully it will come in a nice digipack and have lots of new photos.
May 21, 201114 yr I never bothered buying Progress, loved it though :D Glad I never did actually, now I can get this instead with 8 extra tracks! Wasn't really a fan pre-The Flood bar 4/5 tracks, but I've loved all the singles so far this era and hope the new tracks are as good! Love Love is SUCH a grower :wub:
May 23, 201114 yr Didn't know they will release a expanded version until today in my Amazon e-mail. :lol: Hopefully the new tracks are decent. Yeah, I'm happy I haven't bought the original as well. :lol:
May 24, 201114 yr Its good for those who were pondering buying the album in the past and havnt done so yet as they are getting real value for money, but i dont mind buying it again as 8 tracks is worth a re spend!! Im really interested to see how it will sell though.
June 13, 201114 yr All 8 songs from progressed are now top 60 on itunes, love love is #40 and #49 so hopefully when combined and if sales hold up l;ove love will climb on sunday.
June 14, 201114 yr Author Beautiful is really just a turbo charged version of Human by The Killers isn't it :lol: The chord progression at the beginning of the verses is identical! Anyway, Progressed is *shock horror* #1 in the mids.
