Yep. She worked with them too.

I hadn't seen this before!

Yeah those were prototype designs for the single, which was cancelled as We're Not Gonna Sleep Tonight flopped... The decision to go with WNGST for Christmas instead of A World Without You which was screaming to be a single and it would have been perfect (thought not a #1) for Christmas...

 

I feel this is the decision that killed her contract, personally.

I honestly never understood the logic of WNGST over A world without you, still don't? I guess they thought it would fit the Xmas parties of the time perhaps? :blink:

Could also be that they saw the success Melanie C had with the inferior Hex Hector remix of I Turn To You and thought they could replicate that maybe? Although if that was the case, they really should've waited until New Years to release it to give it a proper boost with all the parties going on...

High On Love >>>>>> the rest of the album

Awwy does stand out.

 

Doube A side should have happened !!

There are two single versions of AWWY from a rare promo cd-r, but the fans with the tracks won't share them.

The album version is 4:53, for comparison!

Well, the promo is not official...

But it was planned to be a single probably

You're kidding. :coffee:

Spice Girls fans are amazing at times - leaking Geri's entire album while she's unsure what to do with the tracks she's recorded? Sure, why not!

 

Leaking 20+ year old radio edits of a cancelled single from Emma's album? Absolutely not.

AGLM will be out in vinyl for the record store day!

Yeah just been announced: Record Store Day announcement and full list

 

Listing: https://www.recordstoreday.co.uk/record/A%20Girl%20Like%20Me

 

Not gonna lie, I am not THAT interested in this so wont get it. I want a Free Me and Life in Mono vinyl. Do we know how many copies will be available?

Edited February 15, 20241 yr by Mr.X

Oh I want this. Damn it. I need to be in the UK

Did it have to be pink? The album what suit a pure white vinyl so much better.

 

I'm not going to a record store to buy it so unless it comes online then oh well.

 

I guess Virgin will push to release all the solo albums on vinyl they released at some point, though Victoria would defo block hers.

I was thinking this gives me faith that Reason will be released on vinyl at some point. I’m guessing Geri will or has already blocked hers being released, I find it strange they would go for AGLM over Schizophonic or Scream.

Why would Geri have blocked it?

It's popping up on Germany RSD too: https://www.recordstoredaygermany.de/exklus.../releases-2024/

 

And Netherlands too, so it is in Europe as well, but not in the USA Record Store Day list. Would be good to know how many copies it shifts

Oh I'm excited for A Girl Like Me! I like the album anyway but even if I didn't, What Took You So Long on vinyl makes it worth it *.*

 

Have to agree about it being a pink vinyl though, are we ever going to have an Emma album that isn't pink? :lol: So far her version of Spice, both My Happy Place versions and now this.
