They're also the cover feature and interview in this month's Retro Pop magazine:

 

@1633515331229556770

 

A preview of the full interview here confirms that the single is written and produced by their old producer Ray "Madman" Hedges and they've signed with Sony again, and that the album is still being recorded: https://retropopmagazine.com/bwitched-reuni...-over-20-years/

It’s ok so far I guess. It’s great to have them back but I think I was just expecting something a little punchier.

 

Birthday:

 

 

Unsurprisingly, the artwork reveals that a best of is in the works - C'est La Vie: The Collection.

 

ETA: seems like a few automatic uploads have happened, their ABBA cover will probably be on it:

 

 

Play That Funky Music too:

 

 

ETA 2: it's already out digitally:

It's 35 tracks, so we'll see if they end up releasing a shorter version on cd/LP.

This looks like the old C'est La Vie: The Collection with Birthday added to it plus a new cover.

 

Unless I’m missing something.

Oh right - I don't keep track of their discography, but it's an updated digital version of this:

To be fair, the cover did desperately need to be changed.

Yeah that original cover wasn’t great.

 

Not sure if they have any of the. Asters from their scrapped third album from around 2001 buy it would’ve been nice to get one of those songs added on too.

You'd think they'd at least be able to add "Where Will You Go?" since they had already started promoting it:

Ah yes! That’s the one I was thinking of.

 

It would’ve been such a nice treat.

You kind of have to wonder if any of the Hear'Say songs that Ray Hedges ended up doing for them were recycled B*Witched tracks. Though I guess the Popstars album was released before they were dropped. Same with Cher's Alive Again.

It's possible, I wouldn't be surprised.

Video:

 

 

I'm just going to assume the car is a part of a product placement deal :lol: The video is ok for a girl group video whose last hit was like 24 years ago, with that said I think it would be better if it had been one long shot instead of interspersed with solo shots and then the sitting in a parked car thing (then again, I'd just assume it was a product placement).

I see what you mean about the car at the end. Does look like product placement.

 

The song is continuing to grow on me though.

I just saw that Awake and Breathe is certified Platinum (it was certified Silver, Gold and Platinum on 10.12.1999) - it must be seriously over-certified, more so than All Saints Studio One (Gold) :o
Did anyone that ordered the vinyl of their debut get it in the post yet?

 

Yes, I’ve had it about a week now!
