I 100% agree on Miscommunication there, the clear misstep on Mistaken Identity for me. As for Running Away, I think I prefer the live version from the Believe Again tour to the studio version, it has more oomph to it.

 

Innocent Eyes - In My Own Time

Mistaken Identity - Miscommunication

Delta - Possessionless (I find there to be a few missteps on this album looking back :( shame because the highs are very high, ended up half great and half filler really)

Child of the Universe - I Lost All Love 4 You (although this wasn't so clear cut)

Wings of the Wild - I'm Not Giving Up (actually enjoying Only Human more in the context of the album now)

 

I agree, though I do love Posessionless. I remember on the first listen through I expected to be bowled over once again, as it opened with the epic Believe Again and fantastic In This Life, but it never really hits anywhere near those two highs again for me. The only other song I still listen to regularly from it is Brave Face.

Yeah the album is lining up at number 1. The renaissance her career is on right now is remarkable and amazing. Couldn't happen to a better artist.

Time for a Delta rank update, it's been a while since I've done a top 20:

 

1. Believe Again

2. Extraordinary Day

3. Innocent Eyes

4. Wings

5. Born To Try

6. Mistaken Identity

7. Hunters And The Wolves

8. Not Me, Not I

9. A Year Ago Today

10. Out Of The Blue

11. Electric Storm

12. Enough

13. Wish You Were Here

14. Be Strong

15. Sitting On Top Of The World

16. Lost Without You

17. Together We Are One

18. Predictable

19. Dear Life

20. In My Own Time

 

All of these are 9.5/10+ songs for me. Will be interesting to see if any others from the new album can break into this.

Exceptional performance, it just had everything required to make an epic performance - a choir, violinists, massive screen with a few seconds of Sergey-esque interaction from Gizzle and ultimately an epic song!
Enough is #14 at the moment, I don't know how likely it is to go that much higher but its purpose is to help shift the album, I really hope she can beat Blink-182, but I'm expecting a #2 debut.
Is it bad that I Believe in a Thing Called Love is my current favourite track? It's so sublime.
Everytime I watch her perform Dear Life I get goosebumps. How can somebody that extremely good be so underated around the world. Her vocals are flawless and effortless. She really is one of the best female vocalist of this generation. She sometimes even reminds me of Celine Dion the way she delivers some of the notes she does. Incredible, always loved her but this past year think it's safe to say I'm a definite Delta Stan :wub:

New at #1 in Australia, achieving what Child Of The Universe couldn't :cheer:

 

To me it feels as if her relevance is higher this era than at any point since Mistaken Identity, even in the UK where the album has gone top 100 on sales/top 30 on download sales.

 

Enough is #33 on the singles chart mind you, not exactly a smash despite The Voice performance :drama: Quite shocking considering Dear Life went top three but I guess people have gone for the album instead.

I got mine in the post this morning, but I ordered from an eBay reseller, not Sanity, as it was a lot cheaper.
I'm really enjoying 'Enough', it's certainly no 'Wings' but it's an improvement on 'Dear Life'!
I adore the artwork to this campaign, aside from the actual album cover. The pictures and design inside the booklet are stunning.
