Posted September 29, 20231 yr Siobhan’s first album is 20 years old!!!! And London records are teasing some form of release, maybe we might get a vinyl 👀
September 29, 20231 yr Happy birthday to this great album! Even if I only discovered it I. 2006. I remember back in 2006/7 contacting Siobhan on MySpace and asking her to put Man Without Friends on her page so I could make it my profile page song. She happily obliged.
September 29, 20231 yr She’s posted about it a few times today! Twist of Fate is such a tuuuuune and the album was such high quality. Always such a shame the buying public ignored it (& the criminally underrated Ghosts ofc)
October 1, 20231 yr She’s posted about it a few times today! Twist of Fate is such a tuuuuune and the album was such high quality. Always such a shame the buying public ignored it (& the criminally underrated Ghosts ofc) The bloody cheek of London records.... hey we dropped you but since you're famous again we might re-release it. I'll totally be buying that vinyl though. Lol. I only discovered it after Ghosts which is superior IMHO but they are quite different and I still really like it. I don't think its the strongest track on there but twist of fate had single written all over it. Was very Natalie Imbruglia of that era and criminally overlooked it should have been huge. I have the CDS :-)
October 2, 20231 yr Author London records were/still are super supportive of One Touch. I guess 20+ years later they see just how special that record was. I really took to XY a few years ago, this is the weakest album Siobhan has vocals on for me, but there’s still quite a few highlights. But yeah ghosts is the one I need more urgently. Thats a masterpiece

I have the CDS :-) The London Records from today is very different to the one that signed the group in the 90s. The version that has re-released One Touch and Revolution in Me is a renamed version of Warner Records 90, which specializes in re-releases of their catalogue. Their focus is basically getting the most money they can out of the music they already own, like putting on streaming songs that were unreleased or exclusive to physical formats.
October 20, 20231 yr Man Without Friends and Iodine are definitely the highlights of the album. I still keep on repeating
October 20, 20231 yr Omg a ghost vinyl is a MUST! Hopefully with some gorgeous artwork on the disc too like a lace design or something! Such a criminally underrated era, I can’t quite understand how it flopped as everyone I know who heard the first two singles loved them?!?
October 24, 20231 yr 20th anniversary edition up for pre-order on Apple (though the release date is listed as September 2003 so not sure when this is out), guessing the vinyl release announcement must be soon (and I hope we get a CD too)! https://music.apple.com/nz/album/revolution...tion/1713265795 Disc 1 is the original album Disc 2 1 Pop Illusion 2 Fickle 3 Instances 4 Those Anythings 5 Thus Far 6 Don't Know Why 7 I'm Glad You're Mine 8 Twist of Fate (Alternative Mix) 9 Nothing But Song (Alternative Mix) 10 Dialect (Alternative Mix) 11 Instances (Alternative Mix) 12 Man Without Friends (Alternative Mix) 13 Overrated (Single Version) 14 Twist of Fate (Radio Edit) 15 Overrated (Radio Edit) 16 Pop Illusion (Luke Mornay Great Escape Mix) Pop Illusion is out at midnight tonight as an instant grat! Am I right in thinking this is previously unreleased?
October 24, 20231 yr Author Yes!! It is an unreleased track Makes me a little hopeful that we might get something for Ghosts in the coming years as well Her solo material is strong, Ghosts in particular is a masterpiece, and it deserves a chance at its moment in the sun
October 24, 20231 yr Author Interesting choice of colour but tbh I couldn’t care less about what colour it is as long as it exists
October 25, 20231 yr Author Shiv has her own official store: https://siobhandonaghy.tmstor.es/ 🥹 Vinyl and 2CD up for pre-order!!
