This is a great album!

 

The singles were all very good but I like some of the album tracks even more - It Happens in particular but What Happened To Your Band, Shipwrecked in Atlantis and All My Friends are also really strong.

What Happened To Your Band is such an anthem - pleased they made it a Busted song after it appeared on the McBusted album.
Yeah I prefer the new version to McBusted's - I think it's down to Charlie's voice.

 

It's funny how things progress, isn't it? Son of Dork - James' post split rebound band - were supposed to release that on their cancelled second album. James then performed it solo during his wilderness years out in the States as it were, then McBusted did it and now it's back where it deserved to be all along.

 

For me, it serves the same purpose to them as 'After All' did to All Saints last year - the pop music equivalent of acknowledgement of their difficult past and almost forgiving each other in a way. Only they could sing and perform that song. I remember when I went to see McBusted on their tour in 2015 and when James and Matt in particular sung it I could hear the hurt in their voice and how much the lyrics resonated with them.

I thought this might hang around for a few more weeks than it did. 2-15-75-out :nocheer:

Shipwrecked In Atlantis is the next single!!!

 

YYYYAAAAASSSSSS. My fave <3

Great track, hopefully It Happens gets a single push at some point too. This album has held up so well for me.
Good choice, and with the Dubai set video will make it a good late spring/early summer single.
Great choice! Would love to see the album get a boost - deserves to do much better than it has.

Wow, strong setlist! Nice to see they haven't totally abandoned the 'Night Driver' era songs.
Seeing them tonight at Wembley and upgraded to meet & greet and the OMFG zone, set list looks amazing as well as some of the videos I’ve seen so far. Really feels as though they are properly enjoying it now and the nostalgia.

I know Matt said ‘Shipwrecked In Atlantis’ was for the fans but odd they made a video for it then moved straight onto MIA as a single.

 

Glad it’s got B listed at R2 - hopefully they will promote it and pick up a few album sales.

Still absolutely love this album! It's definitely my fave of their 4, it's great to see them back and doing well again.

 

I'd quite like another Fightstar album now Charlie x
