3. Into the Wild

4. Outgrow

5. Ghost

7. Windows

8. Close

9. Halo

10. Sink Or Swim

The deluxe has all 5 EPs tagged onto the end also, plus a bonus rarities "disc", so that's 37 songs in total for only £8.99 on iTunes :o

 

Below are the videos for the album sampler (uploaded today) and the music video for the first single (Stay, my BJSC entry).

 

 

 

I'm so excited for this, Stay is one of my songs of the year so far and the previews haven't disappointed :wub:

Stay is the free single of the week on iTunes :cheer:

 

Listened to the album stream last week, was very pleased with it. Had feared it would be a bit dull but it's a LOT better than I expected. My highlights are Stay, Windows, Holding On and Into the Wild :wub:

I was listening to some of his songs earlier after getting an email from HMV. All rather pleasant to listen to.

Absolutely adore this album ~ voted for him in BJSC and the whole album is looking to impress. I didn't know he was the one with the 'Some Songs With Some Friends EP' that charted Top 20 quickly on iTunes!

His fourth EP, Four More Songs, actually charted in the UK top 100! It charted under the first track, Calling, at #69. :D Some Songs With Some Friends also charted top 200, under Even If (which really should have been on the album :wub:).

 

My ranking of the album:

 

1. Stay

2. Into the Wild

3. Holding On

4. Windows

5. Close

6. Stones Around the Sun

7. Sink or Swim

8. Outgrow

9. Halo

10. Castle Street

11. Ghost

 

It really is such a great album though, going to an album signing of his on Tuesday, hopefully can get a photo with him :wub:

Holding On has been confirmed as single #2 and now has a music video!

 

 

Fairly simple video but works well enough. Great single choice :wub:
