James annoys me more and more each day - it is like he is obssesed with Matt. Why mock his 3rd album when you can't even compare? He released his album independently so it is a whole different game for him - he wasn't backed by major promo and Syco's pat on the back. Plus, when James mentioned about going head to head with Eminem - well, Matt went head to head with Noel Gallagher so that was also a huger deal. Why does he always sound like such a prick, Matt even said he wished him well. Who knows if he will get to the 3rd album, his ego is off the scale - he and Kanye West should be best friends. James has talent, but he rubs people the wrong way, no wonder why many actually truly hate him.

I wasn't very keen on their debut, it was very over the place because they were obviously findind their sound. However, this album is really great, I am listening to it a lot. I hear RnB as well as pop - I don't know Queenderella finds that funny. It certainly has RnB. By the way, Perrie's vocals towards the end of About A Boy are WOW, seriously! The only song that I find good, but is my least favorite is Towers, but maybe it'll grow on me - I prefer upbeat songs from them.

He is no.1 in Singapore, Shane tweeted it: Just heard more good news! My album is No1 in Singapore on official Amped chart! #YouAndMeSingapore Thank you all! By the way, his single ended up at #54 in the UK - considering he hasn't even mentioned it once on social networks it is out, the result is good. Here are the sales: 5 The Overtones 19,198 6 Shane Filan 18,451 as you can see, VERY close to no. 5 Also, an interesting report on Haven: Had Shane Filan debuted at number one this week he, and not Eminem, would have had more number one albums in the 21st century than any other act but the 34 year old former Westlife star has to settle for a number six entry (18,451 sales) for his solo debut set, You & Me. Filan's debut solo single, Everything To Me, and follow-up About You - which debuts this week at number 54 (4,599 sales) - are both on the album. That would have been cool but this is also great. Besides, had he released it in July, he would have been no.1 as I remember Thicke went to no.1 with only 20K sold.

Shane tweeted this: My Debut Album is No6 in UK chart !!! Thankyou u all so much guys !! Celebrating in Singapore !!!!! This is amazing result for him, especially considering how big competition was and how very little he promoted it without appearing on important shows.

It is #60 - but that is totally expected as no one bothered to promote it - the single was simply sacrificed for the sake of the album.

He is still at no.5 in the midweeks today, I wasn't expecting that. He is officially #3 in Ireland.

Midweeks: 1 Eminem 73k * 2 James Arthur 37,6k * 3 Tinie Tempah 17k * 4 Andre Rieu 14,1k * 5 Shane Filan 11,4k * I'm happy to see him at no.5. Considering everything, I think sales are not that bad - Eminem is huge while James had a huge media promo and everything. Am I right? I mean, the album sales have been dreadful all year. This is slightly off topic, but I have to say I am very glad to finally see very high sales (Eminem) in the album chart - he could easily reach 130K if he keeps it up. I would love to see Shane pass 20K.

Here is Shane on Late Late Show: I hate the fact that he talked about the bankruptcy for 10 minutes and just 2 minutes about the album. I know that this is interesting to journalists, but wasn't this about the album promo? They ask him the same questions over and over again, I'm sure he is sick of that, just as I am. His album is out, ask him about that :angry:

I understand why this was done. I don't even have to look at comments, I'm sure most are "OMG Harry is SO PERFECT gazing up at his mom and Zayn is SO SWEET hugging his sister" - but the concept doesn't make any sense and the whole promo is very misleading, people behind it are trying to make bigger deal out of this which is nothing more than decent love song. They are singing about failed relationships, not their family, or should I say stories of their lives :D

If that is not great quality then I don't know what is perfect in your eyes :D Nice concept of the video, but it has nothing to do with the song. This is a love song and the promo was made like it is about their life and childhood - bit weird to have that kind of promo and the video with this song. If this was a personal song or about life, it would all make sense, but this doesn't. But the one thing I noticed about the video, they almost completely ignored Louis in the video, he has very little screen time, I guess he isn't the popular one. I have to agree with Bree though, the lyrics are confusing at times, it is all very jumbled.

I have seen this: Nevermind the Buzzcocks Celebrity Juice Loose Women QVCUK and in Ireland the Late Late show. He is no.6 in Ireland, this is good. Plus, we have to keep in mind that probably many of the fansbought it from his webstore with signed editions and everything. I got the mail today that the CD was dispatched today :) I'm really looking forward in seeing the documentary. Tell me what you think once you listen to the album ;)

His album leaked yesterday. it is great that it didn't earlier than that. I definitely can't wait until my album arrives (I live in Croatia, who knows when it will come ), so I listened to it whole day yesterday. I think it is a very good debut album - I would describe it as a fun feelgood album. However, I am not expecting anything huge for him chartwise or saleswise - I mean, the album sales are truly dreadful this year, you can get no.1 with selling just 50K oppose to 130K which was the norm before. It would be great if Shane gets in Top 10, even Top 15.

The chorus does resemble the line Everybody in Love, go put your hands up from JLS. t definitely has a Mumfurd and Sons vibe, just as Gary's new song. Finally something more mature - I don't like them, but at least this song doesn't make me cringe as it is a more mature decent pop song.

I already know I'll really enjoy the album, it is so positive and sweet. I'm glad he is happy, I can hear it through these songs, it is his way of dealing with hard times. Coming Home sounds beautiful and I really love the sound of In The End and Everything's Gonna be Alright. Also, Baby Let's Dance sounds so much better than the acoustic version.

Here is Shane's interview and performance of Once: He always looks so humble and bad when he talks about the bankruptcy, it is very obvious he is feeling guily of the damage he has caused to the people - that is why I feel bad when people are dissing him saying nasty things when this could have happened to anyone, and it actually did happen to a lot of people. It is not like he wasted everything on drugs, alcohol or gambling.

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage...um-you-me.html Has anybody already joined Sun + so he/she could mybe rip the songs and send it to me? I already bought the Deluxe edition so I won't harm him :)

Shane has done a live stream answering many fan questions about the album and the tour: I am really happy with how the record company seems to take care of Shane's career - we are talking about 12-18 months of promoting it with lots of singles, tv appearances and traveling worldwide. Plus, it will be great to see how well he will get on in USA. By the way he keeps going on and on about All You Need To Know, I just can't wait to hear it already.

I love the song, very catchy and very country - I can just imagine the music video with him singing it in a little bar with band playing while people are dancing and drinking around him - maybe even a bar fight can happen in the end :D

yeah, I agree on that - I mean, they haven't even put the single on iTunes. They should have definitely released it earlier than the album and make a decent promo, instead of solely pushing the album. I bet they are not even expecting anything out of About You.

Here is the tracklisting for the Dic 2 of Deluxe Edition: 1. Just The Way You Love Me 2. Once 3. Today's Not Yesterday 4. About You (Acoustic) 5. All You Need To Know (Acoustic) 6. Everytime (Acoustic) 7. Everything To Me (Acoustic) 8. Amazed (Acoustic)

yep, I have seen that, but you know what? I actually managed to order the deluxe 2CD/DVD version via his website by using debit card instead of the credit card :D

The video of Shane being in Nashville was posted on Facebook and he also sang Baby Lets Dance - I presume this is the part from the documentary he filmed. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?v=622972184421045 I really like the song.

he posted all the song titles on his Facebook, but they aren't in the right order: Baby Let's Dance About You Coming Home In The End All You Need To Know When I Met You Knee Deep In My Heart One Of Those Days Always Tomorrow Everything's Gonna Be Alright Everytime Everything To Me You and Me Of course, this is only the standard edition, the Deluxe will have 2CDs so we can expect more songs. He also revealed he recorded the acoustic version of What About Now when he was in Manila, so maybe he will release a few more Westlife tracks for the Deluxe edition.

Yes, that would actually maybe be better :) I mean, just having new photos is such a cheap way to guarantee bigger success. But if you ask me, I would ban the whole thing - just one standard and one deluxe edition is enough - try to be successful with the songs, not with photos.

I know it is nothing different, I'm saying it annoys me everytime, when 1D and JLS done that. At least have extra song or something, not just photos - this is just a desperate way to earn more money from diehard fans.
