Finally got round to listening to this last night. Definitely an album of two halves; you can hear the progression and the journey it takes. It maybe isn't packed with obvious singles like "Staying At Tamara's" was but I get the feeling from George that's not the point with this album. I especially love 'Manila', 'Don't Give Up' and 'Sweetest Human Being Alive'.

 

He's releasing a film that he made during the making of the album tied into the album that's coming out in cinemas for one night only on 29th August:

‘Dance All Over Me’ has been added to Apple Music’s Today’s Hits playlist so it must be the next single.

Yeah, "Dance All Over Me" is the next single. A standalone release with the instrumental is available on DSPs.

It's the logical choice!

Of course. The standout of the album in my opinion.

I’m liking Dance All Over Me.

 

Am I the only one that gets slight Nothing Breaks Like A Heart vibes? In an acoustic type way.

Great choice and best choice of single.

"Dance All Over Me" is quite good.

Glad he's gone with the obvious choice!

'Dance All Over Me' sounds fab. Definitely getting the Mark/Miley feel to it.

Do we think Manila could be a future single? It's one of the catchiest songs on the album.

That or ‘Gold Rush Kid’ would be my pick for future singles. I think ‘Sweetest Human Being Alive’ might be giving a push if he goes for a ballad.

Jax Jones remix out now

 

A Christmas edition has been released to digital platforms featuring ‘Come On Home for Christmas’ (which is no longer an Amazon exclusive), a cover of White Christmas, three string versions of songs on the album and three live songs.

Ah, that means that 'White Christmas' is also no longer a Spotify exclusive then.

George is performing Sweetest Human Being Alive on Michael McIntyre's show on 21st Jan so I guess that's the next single

Such a shame 'Dance All Over Me' didn't really take off as a single. Really thought it would be a hit.

I def thought it would do much better than it did, I expected it to go top 40.

Me too, I quite enjoyed it. Was it Christmas songs that held it back?
