I didn't like “New York” at ALL, but “Los Ageless” has me firmly back ON BOARD.

amazing album

 

Re-imagined for a single release... yet to put a foot wrong for me with this campaign, I adore everything about this (as well as the original :wub: )

This isn't on the current album is it?

Yes - the album track is 'Slow Disco', the single version here is synthed up though so it's quite different.

Oh cheers thanks!

The original 'Slow Disco' was a standout on the album but this reimagined version is just as good. Performed on Jools Holland last night too:

 

 

I never commented on this thread originally but I loved the album so much I bought it on LP - with a gorgeous bright pink vinyl! :wub: 'Los Ageless' became one of my very favourites from last year and checked out the album because of it. 'Happy Birthday, Johnny' is another highlight!

Both versions are so perfect

 

That performance though, what a star

 

Very erotic music video. I'm in love.

"This is the 18+ version of All The Lovers"

'Slow Disco' in all three versions have been excellent and this piano version really lets her voice shine.

 

Although I liked it, I didn't think 'Savior' brought anything particularly new to the song that the original didn't... until the 3 minute mark where the piano gets more dramatic and her vocal gets higher before being reigned in again. That was a great moment.

When do we get mid tempo slow disco?

 

Incredible how she sings those notes on the "please" refrain. And that pianist proper going for it! Love the piano string plucking!

Its a shame this album is not doing great things in the album chart this week, its really not performing, its just scraping the top 75 probably by the end of the week. I think some people are not even aware its out as a repackaged/ reworked album, I didn't even know myself it was out.

Impressive. Thank you for posting.

 

No problem!

 

I'm loving the stripped back version of the album: Slow Disco, Saviour and Young Lover are all fantastic. They're among my favourites on the original album too, and hearing them with the lyrics sang clearly when stripped back have made me appreciate those originals even more.

Listened to it this morning, it’s nice enough but I definitely prefer the originals in most circumstances.

Just got round to watching the Grammy performance. Loved the mashup and the whole thing was so damn sexy.

 

It's also great to see how confident Dua has become as a performer in the past couple of years.
