Fingers crossed - hopefully he'll get some decent promo slots to support it as well.

Just had to share this - Olly won the award for 'Best International Music Act' at the Golden Kameras in Germany on Friday (quite a prestigeous award ceremony there too, so I'm told). He performed 'Wrapped Up' along with Nile Rodgers:

 

 

He looks genuinely delighted to have won as well, God love him. It's still beyond me why the likes of the BRITs in this country continually ignore his success - and his lasting success I should add - because he isn't cool, all this in spite of releasing two million selling albums and having another of one of the 10 biggest selling albums of last year. Ah well, their loss.

Except it's not actually their loss, it's his loss. Maybe one of these years they'll recognise his success and at least nominate him for something.

I just meant it was their loss in respect of ignoring decent pop music just because people are still so hung up on where he came from.

 

He isn't in the same way he was anymore - he in fact it said it took working with Paul Weller on this new album for him to realise he was a good popstar, because Paul simply didn't care where he came from etc.

 

Anyway. Video is being filmed today. And Olly is wearing one of these:

Intriguing!

Confirmed this morning that he'll perform on the first live shows of 'The Voice' as an exclusive on 21st March!
Hopefully he can manage a third hit his era and i think this should at least go top 20, if it can become a decent sized top 10 hit it will push the album wel over double platinum.

Here's the video! A massive improvement on the 'Up' video - love all the different setups and the storyline of it - very fitting to the song! I like his outfit on the disco stage 'bit' too.

Heard this for the first time on Radio 1 this afternoon.

 

Surprised at how good it was on first listen

Compared to what he has on the album this song still hasn't properly hit me. It's ok but that's all for me. I just want it to do well coz it's Olly now, more than anything.
Never been better would have been a better choice for 3rd single in my opinion but i do like seasons. I am finding it hard to predict its peak position as i am unsure if its a strong enough choice to become a top 10 hit for him. A top 20 would be good too, but, i am more interested in it helping increase album sales clearly over double platinum status.

#63 on iTunes - and will probably go higher given it's retailing at 59p for next two weeks. Also now B-listed at Radio 1 and 2 :)

And he's performing on the Voice this weekend too which should give it a boost too

Not a fan of him at all really but this is by far my favourite single he has ever done. I am shocked to see people say this is not a good single choice, it is so strong.

If you listen to this, you'll probably understand why:

Also confirmed yesterday he is chatting and performing on 'Loose Women' next Thursday and 'Jonathan Ross' next Saturday. 'The Voice' tonight as well too 😁 😁 😁
I think this is a great single choice. Actually my favorite of the three singles released so far this era.
