They’re great!

It’s called punk in terms of the way they sing. It was pretty influential back in the day in the development of the sounds post 1970s.

I’m not sure they are being pushed by the industry - I heard them on R1s evening shows this time last year and their album came out in July. Maybe they are being pushed following this with the Sound Of etc but this is also their 2/3rd album.

Can we cancel the industry push for Royel Otis and give more of that to Geese instead pls x

I like them, but in fairness Geese do seem to be getting a huge industry push in America right now - and some of that has translated over here.

It wouldn’t work if people didn’t like the music though!

True, I didn’t feel they were pushed too much before the Sound of nomination but maybe I was oblivious to it lol, as you say the music has to be good. Jack played a song from their last album ‘Crusades’ when interviewing Joe Kerry a couple of weeks ago and it sounded fantastic!

To whomever argued with me how its done wasn't a single 🤭 does seem a bit odd only now though when its about to fall out

My only regret is that it's not What It Sounds Like.

Otherwise they can keep 'em coming!

How It's Done is sounding huge on earphones I must say.

Great production, sounds like it cost £256 million!

I have seen the film many, many times - not necessarily out of choice but there are much worse things that get on the household telly!

I remember that Fragma and Maria Rubia song on the radio at the time. Nostalgic and a bit twee. I also remember the much cooler 'Ms Jackson' on the radio too!

Dario G's cover of 'Dream To Me' was like an early 'Opera Song (Brave New World)'. The phase in popularity of operatic trance didn't last very long in chart terms sadly!

Rui da Silva, Planet Funk and Jakatta have very good dance tracks too!

As a child I was obsessed by the holiday sunny video and sound of 'Love Don't Cost A Thing'.

And some on here dislike the U2 song but I think its good and nostalgic.
