Liking the look of the track list. Looking forward to the Delta collaboration. Might even chart on the iTunes chart here in Australia.

The songs chosen are good and i am interested to hear her versions of them but also i actually never expected her new album to be a covers album.

Multiple versions listed on Amazon now - I need them all :wub:

The cassette and marble colour vinyl aren't currently available to pre-order on Amazon, but 3 items ___∆___ has posted an image of can be ordered! :cheer:

 

I've ordered the CD Deluxe Version and the Picture Disc, so far! I'll likely order the marble vinyl and cassette too, whenever they become available to order. I'd probably bide my time with the standard CD.

 

Presumably she'll have her own artist store :thinking: But I'm glad a wide range is available via Amazon, at least we can avoid Townsend shipping prices :drama:

With a hit-making, chart-topping, 25 year career already behind her as a member of STEPS, following on from the 2019 Top 10 album, ‘My Wildest Dreams’, CLAIRE RICHARDS releases her second solo album, ‘EUPHORIA’.

 

Produced by Steve Anderson (Kylie/Britney/Girls Aloud/Take That/Westlife), the album features classics by legendary female singers, of which Claire writes that “This album is a thank you to all the incredible women that inspired me to sing!”

 

Two special guests join Claire on ‘EUPHORIA’, with Andy Bell featured on ‘Summer Night City’ and Delta Goodrem on ‘No More Tears (Enough Is Enough)’ .

 

The album’s lead single ‘I Surrender’, originally recorded by Celine Dion, showcases Claire’s incredible vocal range by turning the song from a power-ballad into an absolute banging floorfiller, also demonstrating why Claire is one of the best British vocalists.

 

Produced as a multiple format release. Ever popular with TV presenters, Claire has an incredible PR plot lined-up, as everyone wants her on their show!

I love that she is going for it with the formats - she knows that’s what the Steps fanbase / gays love :lol:

 

Last time she done personally signed copies via her website (which I think clinched her the Top 10).

 

As the press release says she is the darling of daytime TV so hopefully she will be everywhere release week, I’m sure there will be HMV signings too.

Her Townsend store is now open: https://clairerichards.tmstor.es/

I hope this has bombastic production with a proper beat, and doesn't sound cheap and tinny like for example 'The Runner'

Thank you, ordered the marble, two LP and Test Pressing.

 

Will cancel marble/2LP if they become available cheaper elsewhere!

Well she just got 7 sales from me :cheeseblock:

 

The test pressing has sold out already *.*

 

There were 100 available.

As overrated as I find "Euphoria" to be, I will still be listening x

I’m surprised they didn’t go quicker! Claire has quite a large fan base (based off the individual Steps merch!) so I figured it would sell out almost instantly!

Several have appeared on eBay for £300 already :rofl:

Bought the 2LP from the official store :wub:

 

Deluxe CD, Cassette and Picture Disc from Amazon, mainly chose to get them from there so that I’m not charged yet.

 

Will probably wait for the standard CD and marble vinyl. Maybe there’ll be some incentives in release week!

Decent start!

I know her solo fan base is probably small but the multi format will sell well and probably be the sway in getting her a 2nd top 10 solo album.

I kinda wish she did a kylie cover on the album, ibthink it would have fitted in.

Which Kylie song would you have liked her to take on? :cool:

Spinning Around or Your Disco Needs You.

Makes me wonder how Steps would sound on Your Disco Needs You!
