July 31, 201113 yr Who'd have thought he'd have to bring out a dance type album to get people to notice just how good he is. His voice is as fabulous as it's always been but treated in a different way and it brings in different people. Really chuffed for him - he must over the moon :wub:

His voice is as fabulous as it's always been but treated in a different way and it brings in different people. Really chuffed for him - he must over the moon :wub: Yes i think the same munchkin, but i suppose he has to keep re inventing himself (not the voice of course) to bring in new fans, jealousy is working big time :dance: hes gently brought us through to what i think hes wanted to do for a long time, i and i know a few others have been waiting a flippin long time for the upbeat album, think he just capitalised on History and ran with it... so pleased he did. so excited to hear the rest of the album :cheer: love Phil xxxx
July 31, 201113 yr How about this then! :cheer: Will Young ‘Jealousy’ Music Video Britain’s premiere prince of carte blanche soul – Will Young – consistently delivers with his music videos ‘Jealousy’ – produced by Richard X – is the first single from his forthcoming studio album Echoes and while there’s all this buzz about Will sashaying into the dance music realm, the evolution here has been subtle and respectful of his style. ‘Jealousy’ recalls the charmingly bittersweet nature of the best Will Young tracks with the added allure of phosphorescent dance beats. In other words, it’s a genius synergy we can all get behind and I’m instantly shortlisting it for single of the year. The spunky Pop Idol winner is known for his quirky and cinematically inspired music videos [check: pregnant Will in 'Hopes & Fears']. Here the inspiration is taken from the 1950s film Trapeze, featuring a smouldering love triangle situation, and because he’s not one to typically play it safe in his videos – the man is about to let you have it with some figure-hugging lycra action. That’s bravery right there. Here are three thoughts I have about the ‘Jealousy’ video: 1) Lycra and body talk. The white lycra body suit isn’t everyone’s best friend but what’s refreshing about Will, as not just a young male pop star but also an openly gay man, is his ability to give f*** all about bowing to photoshopped ideals of what we should look like. He is not the buffest, tannest or most stylised male pop star in the game and he doesn’t have to be. He will rock that lycra outfit with every inch of realness he was born to deliver and that is just what I want to see. I want to see a man who’s comfortable enough with his figure to know that if he has to show skin or wearing a figure-hugging outfit in a video, it doesn’t have to be sexualised exhibition. You know what I mean? It’s saying, ‘this is my body. I care for it to the best I can but I’m not in the business of looking a certain way and using my body in a certain way to grab your attention.’ On a side bar praise, I think Will has consistently made music and videos that are heartfelt, authentic and thought-provoking without being provocative. You know, some artists live for the drama while others have a different but equally effective means of making a statement. 2) Mirror, mirror. It’s kinda like that freaky moment in Black Swan where you realise the mirror reflection isn’t really reflecting the actions of the subject facing it. 3) The love triangle. On the surface, the love triangle theme fits in nicely with the song but as with all good video narratives, there’s always a little more it. When you’re swinging mid air in a trapeze performance like this, you really gotta trust in your partner (and team) to know that they got you. It’s about team work and putting your faith in others [Editor's note: Dick Grayson taught us that much from the Batman movies], which can be a scary thing. Notice the shots of Will hanging on a ladder by himself and being a figure of solitude around a team linking arms and taking a leap of faith together. Perhaps, the idea here isn’t so much that he’s jealous of the chemistry between the male and female trapezist but rather of their ability to trust others. Footnotes: Will Young will release ‘Jealousy’ on 21 August in the UK, a day before the album Echoes arrives. http://feedlimmy.wordpress.com/2011/07/31/...sy-music-video/
July 31, 201113 yr The link takes you to his Alan Car performance ...love the best single of the year comments we keep getting :heart: Will Young Performs “Jealousy” On Alan Carr Chatty Man Jealousy” is the first single to be lifted from Will Young’s forthcoming Richard X produced fifth studio album, Echoes, out August 22nd. The song is not only the strongest single of Young’s already impressive career, but the mesmerizing electro pop ballad is one of the best singles to emerge this year. Richard X, who has worked with Pet Shop Boys, Annie, Kelis, Liberty X, Rachel Stevens and Sugababes, produced every track on Echoes. http://www.popinstereo.com/archives/19829

July 31, 201113 yr jamies119Jamie Will Young in 2011: VERY BLOODY GOOD. http://t.co/sJ9eGlfwill-y… WILL YOUNG FINDS HIS GROOVE http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-L-Lw1wtmALA/TjUyPKTJM5I/AAAAAAAAAck/HYu_6o6ufH4/s400/will-young-350x450.jpg Surely this wasn't supposed to happen. Will Young - of Pop Idol, Very Good Music Video ('Who Am I?', 'Switch It On' and 'Friday's Child') and Mr Nice Guy fame - has made one of the year's best electro-pop tunes. 'Jealousy', the first single from his sixth album 'Echoes', combines God-among-men Richard X's production and Will's soaring vocals. The result is a thoroughly modern pop song that both pulls at the heartstrings and feels genuinely euphoric. Will apparently chose his new musical direction following his brilliant Groove Armada feature 'History'. Although more Groove Armada/Will material would have been brilliant to hear, we're not-exactly-dissappointed to be getting a FULL ALBUM of Richard X's knob twiddling loveliness. Wow, William. The boy done good - very bloody good. http://like1999.blogspot.com/2011/07/will-...y.html?spref=tw
July 31, 201113 yr Apologies if this has been posted. What a lovely music video if you ask me. Not only does it paint Will Young in a new light from his mumsy-safe and Tesco ready, but perfectly enjoyable pop music, "Jealousy" actually portrays Will Young as gay man with actual feelings - I think a lot of readers of EQ can relate to that. The work here is more honest and when that happens, it really strengthens an artist and for that I take my hat off to you Will Young. After seeing "Jealousy" - i'm now VERY excited for his "Echoes" album slated for release on August 22nd. What I thought would be just another Will Young album, there is now suddently a whole new layer of depth and it's intensely fascinating... http://www.eqmusicblog.com/
July 31, 201113 yr On Magic right now is the top 20 of 2011 so far, I think it might be the same show as i saw Will at one on. it might be worth taping to see.
July 31, 201113 yr Author It's a brilliant start to the Echoes era. :heehee: I know what you've been reading. http://www.williamyoung.org/forums/images/smilies/evilgrin0039.gif :lol: Edited July 31, 201113 yr by truly talented
