Looking forward to hearing what they have come up with.

Hmm, this is ok. I'll have to give it a few more listens. Maybe this could be turned into a general thread since there's not really that much discussion about Bananarama either way?

Hopefully Forever Young isn't a cover... also, Let's Go Outside gives me Let's Go To the Mall vibes.

The intro sounds like the theme tune to Stranger Things :lol:

 

Quite like this. Nice chorus. Same Spotify didn't see fit to include it anywhere on NMF, even lower down :(

It has a very 90s Erasure sound to it which isnt a bad thing I think it just needs a bit more speed to it which a remix might help with.

Hopefully Forever Young isn't a cover... also, Let's Go Outside gives me Let's Go To the Mall vibes.

 

It gives me George Michael vibes if anything.

 

New single is fairly reminiscent of Kylie's 'Closer' from Aphrodite. It's decent!

 

I'm guessing they're not significant enough for a new thread to be dedicated to the new album? :lol:

I hope they have some promo coming,, they should attach some of their big hits to the album to help them get some streaming although they are going to be physical reliant on the album getting anywhere.

Masquerade (the track) is the main single it appears (Favourite is marked as a "taster"):

 

 

I quite like it! I think their vocals sound better on this than Favourite to be honest.

Masquerade is better than favourite i think, i really like that synth running through the song and i agree their vocals sound much better on it.

This gets catchier with every listen, id like more like this on the album.

Masquerade will be added to Radio 2's playlist from tomorrow and will be the Record of the Week from Monday

Shouldn't we have a new thread for this era?
