After a few plays I'm not into it. I hope it grows.

Their first album was brilliant! I don't know what's happened to them :(
This is like, the best thing they've ever done.

Simple video but I like it. I also echo all the love for Parachute.
Simple video but it works. 'Juliet' is still their best (and weirdest) video for me! This has grown on me a bit more now as well :D

this has grown on me so much from the first listen, those reggae beats are so funky :wub: very catchy. Shame it's not going to do much :(

3 CDs :o! I've never bought a single that has 3 CD formats before. Interesting tactic. Their previous singles only had 1 CD (and a few had a Vinyl too).
Disappointing track list. No new B sides. Those remixes aren't great. This will be their first release I may not get.

Lawson have lost all momentum, The debut album was SO good but then it all went a bit wrong with random releases and half hearted efforts.

 

Money has been available to stream for a month and has made no impact and there seems to be zero buzz about the track apart from Capital spamming it. I'm not convinced this will go Top 40, They have a fan bundle (3 X CDs plus download) but even if they sell 500 that's 'only' 2,000 sales. They are going to release multiple versions for download but streaming will counteract those. They had so much potential :cry:

TBF I can understand why there was such a gap between 'Juliet' and 'Roads' coming out because Andy wasn't very well for a good six months (mentioned in the topic for the latter as to the cause of his illness).

 

But the truth is their fans don't stream, and until they do Polydor will keep truncating their releases, or, and I hate to say cause I've always thought highly of them - be dropped.

Lawson will struggle this era due to the impact of streaming. I like money and roads but the new songs don't seem quite as strong as their earlier singles and perhaps not quite as radio friendly.

Money is their weakest single to date.

Taking Over Me says hi slag.

 

I think it's time for Andy to shed clothing again, this time sans guitar.
