Sugar is a bit nothingy for me. Not bad but not good either.

Hold Back The River is amazing, so glad that it came back after its way too short original run.
Fixed ;)

That's probably the best place for him :P they'd still play 'amazing tunage' like Domt Wake Me Up and Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, no bloody escape :P

I still think 'Let It Go' could go top 10 if it's properly re-released, although it'll be a bit more difficult now it won't have the whole pre-order shiz going for it. Fantastic to see this making the top 10 anyway, never would have predicted for it to eclipse its original #18 entry let alone get as high as #8! Still sounds brilliant.

Still loving Sugar. :wub: :wub:

 

Yeah it is a bit 'safe' sounding, but that isn't always a bad thing.

Might be best to remove the '3' next to Let It Go in James Bay's discography now that the re-release is cancelled!
Seem to be in the minority here who do not like this song. It is very nothingy :( I want to like it!
