Re: The fifth single

Just got a notification from Australia post to say Online Stores has notified them they’re preparing the parcel 📦 & it should be with Aus Post within 3 business days! :D Sweet! I hope that bodes well for the US store, but I won't hold my breath. Honestly, I want to give the US store a chance, but I ...

Re: Hypothetical Nonetheless Extras album

Honestly, all these playlists sound like they've been put together by a bunch of lawyers. :lol:

Re: The fifth single

Greetings, Thanks Retro 😃 I’m waiting for my 2 CD’s of ATYD Which was due to release on 15th November. I got an email from Fan merch to say they didn’t expect stock until probably end of November. I haven’t heard anything further. What are you waiting for? Same thing. I figured it was getting pretty ...

Re: Who is Chris Burscough?

Aw, that’s nice. Didn’t Chris say something about visiting friends in Preston when he was interviewed about Party in the Park? Maybe these are the friends.

Re: "Covers": a big dilemma for PSB

When you’re a prolific songwriting duo who can produce 90-95% of your own songs, why would you bother doing so many covers? Many of the songs they have covered came out of projects, didn’t they? Always on my mind was for the Elvis tribute. What keeps mankind alive was for the Threepenny Opera ann ...

Re: Nonetheless - Expanded Edition

Late to the party on this, but, ‘kin hell: The dark end of the street is a blinder, isn’t it?, harks back to Always on my mind levels of making an old tune their own -an old soul classic given that synth n stringy amyl-NRG rush. It might give me a massive headache in a bit, but I can’t get enough of ...

Re: What's your opinion about Parlophone's strategy?, do you expect something more?

Just because a song uses the word "Christmas" doesn't make it a Christmas song. Schlager Hit Parade is all about using seasonal jollity to cover up past atrocities. Yeah! Let's dance to THAT around the ol' Tannenbaum!

Re: Exposure and success

Hatchet-burying duet with Taylor Swift and/or Drake?

Joking aside, you can't force a viral moment. It's a perfect storm of circumstances.

Re: PSB open Strictly Come Dancing 16/11/24

Is this the first time that PSB have played the Tower Ballroom? (Not counting Chris's little escapade with the Wurlitzer for A Life In Pop). I know they've played the Empress Ballroom, Winter Gardens and Funny Girls - is this a sweep of all the big Blackpool venues now?? :lol: I'd love to know what ...

It has the best front cover though. :D

Re: Am I in a time warp.

Just ask yourself this: Can you bend over and touch your toes without throwing your back out?

If so, yes, you are in a time warp. If not, welcome to 2024 with the rest of us! :lol:
