April 18, 20232 yr I got this in the post just last week!! Found it on eBay *.* Ha, how random! Had managed to erase it from my memory for 20 years but it was a fun release. We used to drink a lot of Sunny Delight :lol: I Will Find You definitely feels like the most 'cool' song on the album, although has a 90s feel to it.
April 18, 20232 yr Author This is a lovely track, though not the most essential for me. Chorus is better than verses I think!
April 18, 20232 yr This song is giving me Billie Piper album track! In terms of production/melodies, I can imagine her all over this (I guess she'd have needed a male duet partner for it though) I like it, a nice vibe :wub:
April 18, 20232 yr Never Had a Dream Come True - same comments as last week, but it does feel like it belongs more to this era to me. It felt like they went up a gear post-Natural and were unstoppable until Paul left.
April 18, 20232 yr Author As per last week, still a beauty! :lol: Worth an inclusion on another album to be fair. Shame the Spotify album is also missing the Jewels & Stone mix of Don't Stop Movin', a rare remix I really enjoy!
April 18, 20232 yr I feel like I'd filed away the trauma of the AF Idol results until now. Show Me Your Colours came last in its round too?! http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=237642
April 18, 20232 yr Never Had a Dream Come True :wub: It's Top 3 S Club for me! Like I said last week, this feels more a part of the Sunshine album for me than it does for 7, even though the single release does feel attached to the 7 era. I'm glad they ended up including it on Sunshine anyway!
April 18, 20232 yr Author Thanks all so much for taking part once again :wub: so great to revisit such an important album for me (not like I haven't loads already this year) A heads up - I'm not around next Tuesday so we're relocating the Seeing Double listening party to Sunday 23rd April 2023 at 8pm BST, just for the one week. See you then!!!
April 18, 20232 yr I do remember this heading up an ICONIC top three of No.1s, with Independent Women at No.2 and Can't Fight The Moonlight at No.3.

April 18, 20232 yr I do remember this heading up an ICONIC top three of No.1s, with Independent Women at No.2 and Can't Fight The Moonlight at No.3. What a great time in the singles chart :wub: So 'Sunshine' on streaming doesn't include Right Guy :o Really hope it's added eventually. I learned very recently that the version of Right Guy on Sunshine is different to the B Side version on Don't Stop Movin'!
April 18, 20232 yr Author My rank: 1. Don't Stop Movin' 2. Never Had a Dream Come True 3. Show Me Your Colours 4. Have You Ever 5. You 6. Stronger 7. Summertime Feeling 8. Dance Dance Dance 9. Sunshine 10. Good Times 11. It's Alright 12. I Will Find You 13. Right Guy 14. Boy Like You The quality!! Listening to Right Guy now, it doesn't stand up to many of the others but I do still really like it, Bradley's definitely missing a big moment on the streaming album after track 1 ends...!
April 18, 20232 yr Author Also the planned rarities/b-sides party won't dip into remixes so I'm gonna leave this UK bonus track here as it's a great version of an incredible song *.* -abj7RRFpUM
April 18, 20232 yr Thanks for hosting Joseph. Was just looking up the b-sides for this era. Right Guy, Lately, Dangerous and The Long and Winding Road. Right Guy was included on the vinyl release of Sunshine interestingly, that's probably the most R&B they ever went and was a really good track. Production was very similar to the Darkchild songs around at the time. Also, S Club Juniors randomly had an S Club 7 version of their song Anytime, Anywhere on the b-side to Automatic High: https://www.discogs.com/release/1058412-S-C...-Automatic-High

The original mix of Right Guy on the Don't Stop Movin' single isn't as good as the polished album version for me (like Jay, I only recently learned they were different!). The Long and Winding Road is pleasant but not really my thing, and Lately's cute but inessential leaving Dangerous as the only one I really care for. All of those (Anytime, Anywhere included) will feature in the b-sides party in 2 weeks' time! :D (this will be via a YouTube playlist!)
