Pleased that Shayne has held no 14 in todays update but with no more signings to add to sales I hope he doesnt drop too many places. Still hoping for a top 10 position but know thats being optimistic.

I so wanted to like this album as wasnt overly keen on last album "obsession" and happy to say "closer" is fab. Such a variety of songs and a surprise track to me Is "rendezvous". Shaynes vocals on" If you were here tonight","about you now" and" no promises" are stunning. Hoping for some sort of success as this album deserves it. He is on Wogan tomorrow on radio 2 hopefully singing a couple of songs. :)

Me too. He will need high profile promotion and of course AirPlay. Have heard it played a couple of times and believe he has a radio tour planned but weather that will be enough remains to be seen. The music business is crowded!!

Stunning vocals as usual from Shayne. :heart:

Would appear to be a 50/50 split with upbeat tracks and ballads. Shayne's voice IMO suits ballads the best. Pleased that Mike Stock has produced this album and hoping that it has some success. Wonder what sort of promo it will get!

A dreary and forgettable tune...should have had a "joyous feel " imo. Can't see it doing very well in the charts!

I agree totally with that,although I have like some of the contestants over the years. The placings in the charts are often to do with who is popular at the moment,hype of course and nothing at all to do with the song.

Shayne's management have said there is another deal in the pipeline and it will be announced shortly.

What an absolutely fantastic album this is! Have listened a couple of times now and every track is outstanding and my fave would be "lovesong " A class act that's for sure. :heart:

Will Young has another album out think may/june. He always does pretty well and am sure he will do well as always. Shayne ward's single "Obsession" out in feb. The accoustic version is fantastic but how well album version will do I'm not sure. Hopefully better than "gotta be somebody" It is a much better tune!

I was a bit nervous about this album but have to say I am pleasently surprised by it. In fact I think I like it better than "Breathless " it seems to flow better somehow! Yes his vocals are outstanding and there are some great tunes on it. "Foolish " atm sticks out for me but will probably change my mind after a few more listens. Well done Shayne.

Not heard the album yet but from some reviews its said that there are some really great tracks on there and a few "iffy" ones,but then you always get that! Such a shame as you say that GBS was chosen as lead single,so hope it won't put people off buying. He has such great vocals. He has said he will be doing accoustic sets at some stage. Hope so!

Have to agree with you..its tedious and they sound just like Westlife!

Shayne is now at no 10 :cheer:

I thought the same! Not telling me that nobody has downloaded after x/fact performance? Doesn't make sense. Hope it sorts out soon.
