Posted April 17, 201312 yr New single from Eric will be released in Sweden on April 24th. The album 'Forgive Me' will follow after, no release date for that yet. http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll39/kimdasazelle2/BIChmfqCcAAgXQy_zps5b64c7b5.jpg I hope it's better than Marching/Miss Unknown, though the guitar in the artwork doesn't fill me with hope for Popular Part II!
April 17, 201312 yr Marching was AMAZING, Miss Unknown decidedly less so. He's yet to come out with an album that's less than decent so I will be expecting quite a lot from this. I don't expect a new Popular, he's made it quite clear he doesn't want to go with that sound but the guitar on the cover gives me hope for some slightly more melodic stuff.
April 17, 201312 yr I think the artwork screams more "grr I'm a rockstar" to me! Not that that direction is really any better than "look I can be a bland guy with a guitar too!".
April 18, 201312 yr The whole Marching/Missing You thing entirely passed me by. Was that from Saade Vol 2 or just random singles? (If so is he taking hints from Tone Damli who throws a single out randomly then 9months later throws out the album with it on.)
April 18, 201312 yr They were both for the album 'Eric Saade Deluxe' released in Norway late last year which combined parts of Saade Vol. 1 + 2. I guess trying to capitalise on the success of Imagine.
April 18, 201312 yr I see! Most likely, Tone seems to be getting bigger and bigger in Norway post Look Back so it makes sense to cash in on that collab.
April 18, 201312 yr Author According to his official website the song is “a rythmical summer song with a touch of urban pop”. They also confirm the album will be released in the summer.
April 18, 201312 yr So he's basically still trying to be MJ then, he's just moved on to a different era.
April 22, 201312 yr Author Preview at scandipop here. I know you shouldn't judge on a preview, but yeah, sounds pretty crap.
April 22, 201312 yr Not that I want to make it three mentions in three posts but it actually sounds like a Tone Damli reject, with his poor vox on it. I'll stick with the real thing I think.
April 22, 201312 yr Oh it does sound a BIT like a Tone song but it also sounds not too far removed from the more melodic mid tempo numbers on the first 2 albums so in that sense it's not a huge departure. I think it sounds pretty promising, though I'm not sure a full album of this sort of stuff would be massively appealing.
April 22, 201312 yr Shock that Scandipop are going crazy for this. I am so surprised, I didn't think they liked Eric Saade :P
April 22, 201312 yr Shock that Scandipop are going crazy for this. I am so surprised, I didn't think they liked Eric Saade :P You what? They raved RIDICULOUSLY over Saade (vols 1 + 2)
April 22, 201312 yr You what? They raved RIDICULOUSLY over Saade (vols 1 + 2) How could you not tell that I was being sarcastic?
April 23, 201312 yr I loved his eurovision entry popular but none of his songs that i have heard have come close to matching it.
April 23, 201312 yr Sounds like Whistle/Hey Porsche in the verses. That guitar based chord progression is EVERYWHERE recently! Not quite what I'd hoped for.
April 24, 201312 yr h-5p_hSHDpQ Hmmm let's see what we have here... Yeah, a pretty standard cheesy guitarish affair. Edited April 24, 201312 yr by Paveux
April 24, 201312 yr I'm not loving it on first listen. It's quite cute, but that chorus is piss-weak. He's still a babe though, so i hope he can manage to pull off a few gems in the next album. Better than Miss Unknown though (not hard).
