October 19, 20222 yr I think the release date might be due to ensuring vinyls are available on the same week. It must only be recently finished/in the process of being finished as he did the festivals this year without releasing any new music as appeared to be as originally intended. The world tour dates also suggest they were hoping for a Q4 release date.
October 19, 20222 yr It doesn't matter when he releases his album he's sold 2000+ signed albums in less than 12 hours (excl. vinyls) and the casual audience will order and stream it nearer the time. He admitted in August he had no new music to play at festivals and he will be doing a combination of old and new music on his tour. He's very interactive with his fanbase they will see him on tour and wait for his album.
October 19, 20222 yr Yeh true could be a combination of those things, strange the Uk tour is in January too which suggests it was planned for Q4!
October 19, 20222 yr Seems like ages away until it is released but I suppose he will get another couple of hits before the release which isn’t a bad thing. I hope he puts a track called ‘Figure it Out’ on it that was supposed to be on his first album. The opening lines of it is Broken by desire to be heavenly sent Divinely uninspired to a hellish extent Here is the live version NJQ2A4HM998
October 19, 20222 yr Ah so it's not a coincidence that this has a suspiciously similar / rhyming title to his debut then :lol:
October 23, 20222 yr Yeh true could be a combination of those things, strange the Uk tour is in January too which suggests it was planned for Q4! He did say in a recent interview that they pushed back the single and album because his team were worried about his health which of course turned out to be Tourette’s. So I think the first single would of been out in May when The Sun reported that he filmed the video and it was weeks away back in April. Then another one or two singles out before the album release in November but obviously plans changed.
January 6, 20232 yr Lewis “leaked” a snippet of a demo that isn’t going to be released and supposedly his label will go mad about. This seems to be the the new trend for artists on TikTok coming out with this nonsense so wouldn’t be surprised if it’s on the album. Preview here. Sounds quite good to be fair.

It sounds like 5SOS or Coldplay more than him. The 1 song that fans want on the album is Figure It Out which was cut from the first album but the opening line is "Broken By Desire to be Heavenly Sent". He played it at his shows years ago but he also played Lasting Lover too before he gave it to James Arthur/Sigala. :arrr: It would be a huge hit if he did release it.

Pretty sure he’s being sarcastic and taking the piss about his label going mad as a reference to said trend :)
January 6, 20232 yr Nathan Dawe did something previously to suggest Sweet Lies was being "leaked" and the label didn't want it to be played at a DJ set or some rubbish like that. Whatever they wanna do to make people think it's all some big issue that doesn't exist just to drum up hype :kink:
January 8, 20232 yr Just when I thought pointless was going to become a relative flop to his other hits, it’s no2 in first look chart today. I wonder if it will hold up through the week?
January 19, 20232 yr Lewis said 47000 codes were sent out to those that pre-ordered his album. Big if true.
February 1, 20232 yr Confirmed to be performing at The Brits so I could see a new single being released around then.
March 15, 20232 yr He’s announced a new single for release this coming Friday titled How I’m Feeling Now which is the same name as his documentary next month. I guess this time around he’ll try and get that #1 debut like he did with Forget Me as isn’t Ed releasing the week after? He’s said this song is about his mental health.
March 15, 20232 yr Yeah Ed is next week. Between this, Ed and Calvin/Ellie it could be an all British top 3 in a few weeks time.
March 16, 20232 yr Let's hear the songs first, think you're a bit too optimistic look at Pointless, no one cared
March 16, 20232 yr Is ‘How I’m Feeling Now’ a single or just promo track for the documentary and album? From the snippets I’ve heard it doesn’t sound the most commercial compared to ‘Forget Me’ so I can’t see it being that big.
March 16, 20232 yr The chorus doesn't have as much "punch" as the first 2 singles. All I could remember is on-and-on^11.
