July 26, 201410 yr The album is so strong! :D 'So Alive' is possibly my favourite album track from the standard, but 'Bad Man' sounds like it has bigger hit potential. Really hope the album will go Top 10 for them.

Really hope the album will go Top 10 for them. Agreed - such a good debut, I don't know whether I love it because it's new or because it's good, if that makes sense? :rolleyes: Sleepless in London is so beautiful :heart:
July 28, 201410 yr Very strong debut. Really liking 'Bad Man', 'Sleepless In London' & 'Fool Me' the most. Asami is gorgeous!
July 28, 201410 yr Only £6 in Tesco :o Bought my copy today. Sleepless In London is my non-single highlight :wub:
July 28, 201410 yr I downloaded the Deluxe edition on iTunes as my tote bag, wrist band, t-shirt and signed standard edition didn't arrive and needed those five extra tracks! Totes worth it, Future X Girl, London Rain and Fool Me (acoustic) are just :heart: :wub: Very strong debut. Really liking 'Bad Man', 'Sleepless In London' & 'Fool Me' the most. Asami is gorgeous! Badman has a good beat but I just don't get it :puke: Sleepless in London and Fool Me definitely two favourites :D Only £6 in Tesco :o Bought my copy today. Sleepless In London is my non-single highlight :wub: Was listening to Sleepless in London when I was rereading through this post, agreed on non-single highlight!
July 28, 201410 yr Well, they definitely released the best 4 songs from the album :lol: I have to agree. The album is very mediocre IMO.
July 28, 201410 yr I think it's a pretty solid debut, it does lag in the middle but the singles and the bonus tracks are great and Bad Man is packed full of personality. Would have made for a great pre-album single (not that I think they've made any bad choices so far) but I can't sadly see it doing much as a post-album single (and it's SURELY lined up next?)
July 28, 201410 yr I have to agree. The album is very mediocre IMO. I think the only mediocre tracks are So Alive, sounds very generic really. I think it's a pretty solid debut, it does lag in the middle but the singles and the bonus tracks are great and Bad Man is packed full of personality. Would have made for a great pre-album single (not that I think they've made any bad choices so far) but I can't sadly see it doing much as a post-album single (and it's SURELY lined up next?) I'm so glad most of us agree they hadn't made any bad choices, so frequent for members on here (especially in the artist forums) to nit pick the correct single selections! I really hope if they go for any post album singles they go for Future X Girl, would love a video similar to Trouble mashed up with something like Ego but not so based on a storyline. :w00t:
July 28, 201410 yr This is hardly the greatest album ever, it's got a few fillers, but it's not bad! They definitely released the right four tracks I think, Trouble is still my favourite I think. Bad Man is great though and the cover of Waiting Game is stunning although whoever decides to do vocal gymnastics at the end, that part is unnecessary, the original is better for lack of that :P I'm not sure it's an album I'll go back to that much but yeah it's good.

I think it's Shereen at the end? :P Still hurts me that 'Welcome to the Jungle' is not the first track. :rofl: same but you'll get used to it :rolleyes:
July 28, 201410 yr There are three flaws with this album: *Welcom To the Jungle is not the opening track. :blink: *Fool Me (Acoustic) isn't the official version of Fool Me. :( *Two of the best tracks are Bonus Tracks. :wub: Other than that, this is a flawless debut. Bad Man is SCREAMING for a post-album release and then possibly So Alive afterwards (THAT CHORUS :heart:). It's currently sat at #8 on iTunes with the Standard Edition at #56, so not at all bad. I can see this debuting at #7 with potentially 6.8k sold; they're doing signings throughout the whole of this week, so it shouldn't nose dive to badly. Tbh I'm still in shock at how the deluxe edition cost me only £4.02 on iTunes. :o
July 28, 201410 yr What tracks do you think are fillers? Can't Stop The Love and Fool Me are a bit/dull average, I agree the acoustic Fool Me is much better.

Tbh I'm still in shock at how the deluxe edition cost me only £4.02 on iTunes. :o It is interesting how different the song is from the acoustic - when I heard it acoustically I was expecting something quite slow but the standard version is quite midtempo! Can't Stop The Love and Fool Me are a bit/dull average, I agree the acoustic Fool Me is much better. Cant Stop The Love is a bit average but still good aside that horrible unnecessary rap :lol:
July 29, 201410 yr Anyone wanna send me an mp3 of Royals? Me seconded please! I preordered a physical copy and it doesn't have it :(
July 29, 201410 yr I have it on my phone, but I'm out atm and have very little battery, I will PM you both it when I get back :D
July 29, 201410 yr Listening to this now, Sleepless In London is definitely the best so far bar the singles Edited July 29, 201410 yr by jsilv
