The song with Dizzee sounds nothing like the singles! :o It's even a different genre. I'm really shocked, I was expecting Holiday, Part II tbh. :lol:

'Drinking From the Bottle' is awesome! Tinie is going to be even bigger with his next era. All these collabo's he's putting out, right before his new era! Pretty much like how Katy Perry did the same thing before the 'Teenage Dream' era. I'm not saying he's going to be as big as her, obviously. But it's a brilliant way of keeping your name out there whilst trying to finish off your new album etc..

 

Made me want to download the album (which I'm doing so now) but I really can't imagine a performance of it on something like Jonathan Ross :lol:

I hope not, it's so substandard for him (and for Calvin in fact). Bit like if Katy Perry had lead Teenage Dream with "If We Never Meet Again".
Yeah. I was thinking, because they had Miami 2 Ibiza released the week before Tinie's album, they kind of used it as a single for his album (in the sense that the song was on his album, and they promoted the song at that time to help promote his album I assume).
I like the album but it's been such a long time coming that it feels like a bizarre mash up of a greatest hits and some thrown in interludes, so barely feels like there's anything new to listen to on here. School is very Daft Punk Discovery-era though so I approve of that. Love Drinking From The Bottle too.

He may as well called this album 'Greatest Hits 2010-13' :lol: Drinking From The Bottle is obviously going to be his next single, and after that he can keep his name going in 2013 with 'Thinking About You' and 'I Need Your Love'. Hopefully TAY is a hit so that Ayah gets into the mainstream :D

 

Fantastic album by the way!

Tinie performed it at V Festival in August and EVERYONE was pumped for it. I'm not even a Tinie fan and I laave it!

 

He also performed it at Radio 1's Hackney Weekend, as well as a less commercial new song called Mosh Pit. I was so excited at the time to hear new Tinie songs, one of the highlights of the day!

I don't get how people can be surprised and disappointed with the album when half of the songs have been hits ages ago? personally I love it. It's very mainstream but also the songs are good which is all that matters.
Has anybody got the deluxe edition on CD? Does it include just a continuous mix? The version on itunes includes the continuous mix and several remixes/extended versions.

Edited by slowdown73

Just bought the continuous mix on Amazon for .89p without having to buy the entire album.

 

 

 

Drinking from the Bottle will vertainly big his next single although its already in the charts, im sure he will then release the Ellie Goulding track. I agree, it will be like a greatest hits overall but another single or 2 may just help the album hold up better long run.

Thinking About You is the final single from the album.

 

:dance: Yes! I really wanted this to be a single. I hope it doesn't miss the top 20.

 

So what's that now, 9 singles! And seeing as Calvin released Awooga as the B-side to Bounce and he released Iron as a beatport exclusive before 18 Months was out - that's only 4 songs he hasn't released off the album, and 3 of them are interludes. I don't think anyone has milked an album as much as this before :lol:

The singles campaign behind this album is faultless and it does prove that several hits can still be had from one album. The album is practically a greatest hits set at this stage but its by far his biggest selling album, it has plenty of sales ahead of it too before it leaves the chart and he has had some huge selling singles of it. I dont think anyone can say the 18 months era was marketed nothing short of perfect.
