It was just announced on BBC2 that her new single will be out on February 22nd! :wub:

 

COME ON BUNTON, WE'RE READY :cheer: :funky: :yahoo: :w00t:

 

Omg, I can't wait! That's less than a month away! :w00t:

Yes! This is the best news. I wonder what it will be.

 

Hoping for an upbeat bossa nova number. A little bit 'Breathing', a little bit 'Take Me To Another Town'.

Zoe said Emma would be on Radio 2 on 27th February, but I didn’t hear a release date of 22nd mentioned? Does that info come from elsewhere?

 

Excited for her to begin this era!

wow before the tour

wow before the tour

 

 

They know she's unlikely to have hit singles, so they'll likely focus on getting it as high as possible in the first week then hope that the tour and further singles released to garner Radio 2 airplay will sell it.

I think for the new album a bonus greatest hits CD could help,bit like what olly murs done with his latest album.

This release will be genuinely interesting in how it fairs. Of the 4 Spice Girls likely to release music I feel Emma is best placed to have success. Her post music career has been based around being very likeable and appealing to your 40 or 50 year old mum type figure, they are one if the few people who still buy albums. She is a spice girl though and a certain gay following will always be there too.

 

I think the single and album should be aimed at the the 2 different demographs, the single should have a vinyl release with a b-sides and a CD single with remixes sold through a website and the download be 59p. She should definitely go the Kylie route of appealing to collectors and try to make some impact that way. Also do G.A.Y, attitude mag etc.

 

The album should be aimed at Asda mums, go chat on Loose Women about feeling how at 40 something she thought I'm not doomed or dead and still want to follow my passion of music etc.

 

As for the music it needs to bridge those 2 demographs though which is the tough thing. I think keeping a retro 60s feel is the best bet tbh. The younger gays love that 60s aesthetic whilst it makes the Asda mums nostalgic.

This is also her chance to do some solo gigs !!

Is the February 22 release date only for certain countries and only in digital form?

 

Does anyone know if her fourth album will be available to buy on mp3million.com?

I'm not holding my breath for physical formats for the single, unfortunately. Even Kylie didn't release a CD single here, only the 7" for Dancing and that was it. I don't think any other BMG artists even got a 7" single. It still surprises me that BMG doesn't concentrate on physicals for singles.

 

Hopefully there'll be a lot of album formats at least! Standard CD / Deluxe CD / 12" Vinyl / 12" Picture Disc / Cassette were released for Rick Astley and Kylie... but then Gabrielle only had a CD and Vinyl. Hopefully BMG realise that Emma has loyal Spice fans who'd be happy to buy a range of physical products.

That would be fantastic :wub: I wonder if she could play some Academy venues.

February 22nd isn't confirmed (as far as I'm aware), but whenever it is released it should be a worldwide release - downloads/streaming platforms everywhere, and fans should be able to order physicals from her (not yet launched) online store.

 

Not sure about mp3million.com, I hadn't heard of it before... time will tell!

Basically everything Jay says.

 

I WOULD KILL FOR A VINYL RELEASE OF THE ALBUM :wub:

I wonder what direction she's going for this time ?

 

 

Btw she was just shooting something .

She looks so beautiful :cheer:

Yeah stunning :heart-old:

Well one way or another, it looks like we'll definitely be hearing it two weeks from tomorrow: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0002s58

YYAYAYAYYAYAYAYAYA

OMG I can't believe it

It sounds silly but I was trying to listen to the music in the background of the Insta video Emma posted when she was doing the shoot. It sounded like her a little bit, but I couldn't work it out.
