October 1, 20159 yr Author As much as I think this chorus is damn catchy, I'm looking forward to hearing the verses and their individual voices, away from the rousing chorus.
October 1, 20159 yr Seems like they've tried to recreate 'Up' and make it faster. Not a criticism though, I like the clips!
October 1, 20159 yr I wonder if Ella Eyre will be rolled in to sing this with him for the X Factor performance :lol:
October 5, 20159 yr Author https://www.facebook.com/benhaenow/photos/a...e=3&theater Lovely still Ben posted on Facebook from the video (I'm trying to ignore the all over arm tattoo ;) )
October 5, 20159 yr I am definitely on board with an 'Up'-style collaboration, especially as Kelly is one of my favourite artists.
October 5, 20159 yr Author I am definitely on board with an 'Up'-style collaboration, especially as Kelly is one of my favourite artists. I think its going to be great, I am just fed up of waiting to find out!
October 6, 20159 yr I don't get why though? "Due to finishing touches"? If you put it on pre-order and got a clip out there, surely ot doesn't need "finishing touches"?? :drama:
October 6, 20159 yr Just a PR excuse I should think, rather than "we've realised we haven't planned this as well as we could've done" or "we're not very confident with our release strategy so we want to premiere it a few days before". So I guess they either want to do that premiere a few days before or realised that it was going to be a little too long between the release and potential music videos and X Factor performances.

So I guess they either want to do that premiere a few days before or realised that it was going to be a little too long between the release and potential music videos and X Factor performances. Such a bummer and it could be any of these, my hunch was the music video wasn't ready but who knows! If this means it gets a bit of airplay before the release date that will be better in the long run. Only yesterday he tweeted he couldn't wait for us to hear it on Friday. I actually dm'd Ben about this why wasn't it being premiered before the release date. Maybe he listened lol :heehee: Edited October 6, 20159 yr by torresgirl
October 6, 20159 yr Another possibly more obvious reason is that Syco don't want to release Ben and Olly's singles at the same time, as Olly will no doubt do better with initial fanbase buys and therefore make Ben look worse than if he wasn't releasing against Olly - so they've pushed Ben back to a week without any established Syco acts to compete with.

It will be interesting to see their first weeks sales to see who would have won that one. I don't think releasing the same day was good for either. I think it might have depended on who had the better promotion.
October 6, 20159 yr Author So we have a bit of solo Ben from Second Hand Heart. I love his voice. https://instagram.com/p/8gOBuuD20W/ He is showcasing his album tonight seems to going down very well.
October 7, 20159 yr Author At this rate we will be able to piece the song together ourselves before Syco get it released but here's another clip anyway. https://twitter.com/Bhaenow/status/651790781024354304
October 7, 20159 yr This sounds really great. Can see Heart/Capital getting on board quite readily (X-factor winner + Kelly Clarkson should ensure that). Radio 1 too. I think this song will actually be quite a big hit! Not surprised with the push back though - I assume it's mainly due to the live shows of X-factor this year starting later?

Yes the schedule of the live shows seems to have messed with everything. I don't think the first live show is until the 31st October. Normally the winner releases their single the weekend of that 1st show much earlier in October.
October 7, 20159 yr Author can they stop teasing us :drama: give the f***ing song. LEAK please [/quote I think you have tapped into the feeling of many there lol
October 14, 20159 yr Author It seems Ben has signed a record deal in the States. http://www.pressparty.com/pg/newsdesk/lond...sk/view/133916/ Edited October 14, 20159 yr by torresgirl
