Posted February 26, 20169 yr Just thought we'd start doing these occasionally. Keep some interest and activity going in the forum! va3PbVwXBWY Can we get some love for 'Towers' going? Probably my favourite non-single. I know everyone else prefers the likes of 'Nothing Feels Like You', 'These Four Walls' and 'A Different Beat' from the 'Salute' album, but I really feel this is the true gem. This was the 'Secret Love Song' of the the 'Salute' era imo. Could've been big! Such a powerful, roaring, mid-tempo ballad! I think I'd have had this as single 2, over 'Little Me'. 01. 'Move' 02. 'Towers' >> Premier performance on the XF final. << 03. 'Little Me' >> Sport Relief single. << 04. 'Salute' >> BGT << 05. 'Nothing Feels Like You' >> Summer single. << --- BREAK for 'Get Weird' era ---
February 26, 20169 yr Towers is flawless, definitely one of the strongest off the album. It's such a powerful moment :wub: I agree with that singles release completely, though as much as I'f have loved Nothing Feels Like You to have been released. I would have released Mr Loverboy because it's a jam, and would have been a great summer song :dance:
February 26, 20169 yr This is gorgeous, definitely their best ballad behind SLS. I agree it should have been the second single, Little Me is very nice but this is the much better ballad, it's bigger and would've been amazing performed on a big platform like X Factor. I think it might my favourite non-single too, the only one I can think that comes close is Hair maybe? Hair, this and Love Me Or Leave Me >>>>>>> I love These Four Walls as well, just as stunning as Towers really but it wouldn't have had the same chance as a single. I love their harmonies in the last chorus so much though so I'd also have loved an X Factor or BGT perf of that :lol: I wouldn't release both in the same era though, and Towers definitely should have the opportunity <3
February 26, 20169 yr Towers was the one I instantly loved from "Salute". These Four Walls was a grower, but it's just as amazing. Towers is just bigger, production is better and more powerful. I could see it being a hit, while T4W I couldn't. But I don't know it would have worked as the 2nd single from Salute.. Only if, as you said, it was performed on a HUGE platform
February 27, 20169 yr Probably my favourite track on 'Salute' bar 'Move'. Such a lovely song! I agree with you re it being the second single. A run of 'Salute' (I still think it should've preceded 'Move') > 'Move' > 'Towers' > 'Nothing Feels Like You' would have been sublime. And if we're talking perfect campaigns, 'Red Planet' should've been released instead of 'Change Your Life'.
