Posted October 21, 20168 yr Take That have just posted a tweet saying: TOMORROW #WONDERLAND Looks like the big reveal is about to happen!! Edited February 17, 20178 yr by jay727
October 22, 20168 yr Maybe they do a Christmas song album. I am sure this will would be a blockbuster
October 22, 20168 yr Album cover https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CvXk45qWYAAzzdk.jpg Edited October 22, 20168 yr by These Days
October 22, 20168 yr Looks like a new studio album and not a greatest hits package which is good news. Can't wait.
October 22, 20168 yr I like the cover and the name of the album. Sounds promising and back to the Circus style
October 22, 20168 yr Love that cover.. I wish they would hurry up with the reveal.. Tomorrow is almost over hahaha
October 22, 20168 yr Author Wonderland is the name of the album and the tour! Tour on sale on Friday, album out 17th March. Bit disappointed that they are losing Xmas sales. Wonder why they've delayed it?
October 22, 20168 yr Surely it's because that is when the TV series Let it Shine will end? It will have been on prime time TV for six weeks. Perfect promo. Then release the album in time for Mothers Day. Sounds like good marketing.
October 22, 20168 yr I was about to say, they'll time it with when Let it Shine is on TV still. Perfect promo opportunity. Will be booking for the tour, All Saints are supporting them as well!
October 22, 20168 yr I really like the album cover and title. But March feels so far away! I had hoped to get some new music sooner than that. I will probably have to give the tour next year a miss, don't think that I can afford to travel this time :( Hoping for some European dates closer to my country.
October 23, 20168 yr Let It Shine will have long ended before the album drops :( I'm afraid this was a very bad move for them :( I hope this, at least, means we'll be getting 2 or 3 singles before the album release.
October 24, 20168 yr I like the album cover, i am disappointed we are not getting the album in the coming weeks but they obviously have reasons for holding it back, if nothing else they are almost guaranteed another number 1 releasing at that time of year even if opening sales are lower than three achieved. I hope they release at least 2 singles prior to the album and line up good promotion.It is a little strange they announce the album title and tour but yet no word of a single.
October 24, 20168 yr Truly disappointed we will not have the album earlier. I do believe they will lose on on crucial Christmas sales.
October 24, 20168 yr Has any tracklist been announced yet for the new album? I do like the cover but I'm also disappointed its not being released in Q4. I think its the first time certainly in the new era they haven't released a new studio album in Q4.
October 24, 20168 yr Indeed, the album might open on 50k or less with the further eroded hype and the timing of the release, but that should be more than enough for #1, whereas I can't really see a gap in the schedule in the run up to Xmas where they'd have likely achieved another #1. I guess that's important to them this time. I'd love to see them get another #1 single too but it's a pipe dream now with streaming, a top 10 would be an incredible achievement but I suspect a low top 40 is more likely, going by the performance of Hey Boy and Cry.
October 24, 20168 yr For the record, These Days peaked at #20 on the streaming chart... Lets hope the lead single gets huge download sales somehow and that there's a physical, but even so they'll probably have an uphill struggle breaking the top 20.
October 25, 20168 yr A top 10 single is my hope for the lead single and if they got a second top 40 hit i would be happy, i know the days of hit singles for them are gonna be few and far between but These Days done so well in the new era so there is still hope. I think the time of year they are releasing should secure them another number 1 but it would be lovely if it could open on 100,000 plus. We saw a huge decline in the sales for Three so this album will really tell if the decline will continue, for now my hope for the album is number 1 and it for at the least to go platinum. The sound they go with is now crucial, i still believe (maybe naively) that a good killer ballad could attract interest in the album, but i have a feeling this album will be again experimental as i think the boys feel they have nothing to prove and will have made an album they are happy with rather than just delivering a sound they know will work.
October 25, 20168 yr Author I would expect them to go #1 without a doubt if it released in Q4. It would still sell upwards of 100,000. We'll see how many sales the pre sale tour code offer generates in advance. Platinum should still be a realistic target
