October 8, 201113 yr The single. The 2 bonus tracks, Lost and Found and Chemical are amazing :D Lucky so and so :P The sample for them on itunes sound very promising :wub:
October 10, 201113 yr Oops, just hopped over to DS and seen all the Matt hate. Was good for a laugh :lol: some people over there need some perspective.
October 10, 201113 yr :lol: NEVER go to the DS forums. So much hate, it honestly baffles me how he has seemingly ENRAGED so many people, there's posters there doing a complete jig of delight. Sad. :lol: I still think the album is going to do fine. Those expecting an epic flop there are going to be disappointed. I really love the B sides Chemical, Lost and Found. Did you see his acoustic performance of an album track at the end of the Xtra Factor? It was lovely.
October 10, 201113 yr :lol: NEVER go to the DS forums. I never usually do but I was bored! I just hadn't realised that the opinions of proper musical academics was available to me :rofl:
October 10, 201113 yr Lost & Found is such a brilliant song, best of the 2 b-sides. I never bother with X-tra Factor :( wish I had now.

October 10, 201113 yr I might just do that :P Definitely do, lovely song, far more 'Matt' and he was so much more at ease than in the main performance!
October 12, 201113 yr Hi, just visiting from the DC X factor forum. The trolling about Matt is really very bad at the moment. It will quieten down as the series takes up more of the trolls attention. You've got to have a pretty thick hide to deal with it. We just leave 'em to it, they often end up turning on each other. Letter is going to be great. My current favourite is Sparks and not just because it was free to download. Haven't played the previews of Letters I would rather wait for the whole album.
October 12, 201113 yr Lost & Found is such a brilliant song, best of the 2 b-sides. I never bother with X-tra Factor :( wish I had now. Lost and Found has been a favourite of mine for a long time. I was surprised to hear female vocals in the song though. I have got used to it but it was strange at first. Sparks has become a favourite of mine too.
October 12, 201113 yr There's a bunch of videos from his album launch gig on youtube now... love hearing the previews in full. They sound incredible live :wub: I was at the gig and he and his band were amazing - he did a cover of Unfaithful by Alanis Morrisette that was incredible. I've listened to the album previews constantly for weeks and the live stuff and for me RFYL is the weakest song on the album by a very long way - just don't understand why they thought it was a good lead single - the Barlow effect I guess Anyway I just can't wait for my copy to arrive now.
October 12, 201113 yr Author I'm finding myself weirdly excited for this, didn't think I would be! Uninvited should be epic, one of those songs I love whoever sings it :wub:
October 12, 201113 yr Spotlight better be second single and he better get a christmas x factor performance it could save this (in what I believe) could be a poor chart run, Why must the winners perform on the first show? The should release the album in November time to generate way more sales.
October 12, 201113 yr I think spotlight is the 2nd single and im sure he will get another x factor performance, should that happen and shoud matt not get a sales benefit from it i think it would be the end of him and syco.
October 12, 201113 yr I don't see why a second single rush released before christmas would do any better than Joe McElderry's second single really. I think his album will do a bit better than Joe's did, but won't be a huge seller or anything. Probably less than 200k overall.

Hi there, first post on BJ! The song's called Starlight :) I'm not sure if it's been officially confirmed that it's the second single yet? But from having listened to the previews on itunes, and been at his live gigs in Inverness and Koko's (London) (yes, I'm a BIG fan of Matt's :D ) I think just about any of his self-penned tracks would do better than RFYL! But the thinking in the DS Matt Cardle Appreciation Thread (DSMCAT) is that Starlight has the most 'chrismassy' feel to it. Just had an e-mail from Play.com that my deluxe 2CD Letters has posted so I should be getting it on Friday/Saturday. Really excited for it. :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

The album's doing very well in the pre-orders Amazon/HMV/Play.com/iTunes, looks like it could enter at #2 after Robbie next week. I'm thinking that once people hear more of it, it could hang about in the upper-charts for a while though there's so much competition in his genre atm, e.g. with Coldplay releasing the following week
