I wonder if Lost In Sunshine is going to be an actual single?

I really like this shoot, so hope we see more in the album booklet.

Isn't this just splitting hairs? What is an "actual single" in the streaming age? Everything is Sweet will likely get some Radio 2 play, maybe no video but it's been released to tease the album and therefore it's... a single.

 

[Bextor75]

Is Breaking the circle played on Radio 2 ?

 

[alwaysdarkinlunapark]

I've definitely heard it on R2 and I thought it was on their playlist but maybe it's already gone

What a GORGEOUS picture that is on her Spotify profile. Eagerly waiting to see the album booklet.

(Sorry for the double post.. I'm not sure how to do quote two posts on one response anymore )

Your right. It really doesn't make a difference. I would have liked a music video for this, but unfortunately we won't get one.

I know the singles far off from being released but did she do any promo for Breaking The Circle except for the Piano Room Sessions?

 

[alwaysdarkinlunapark]

I assume there'll be more promo for the next single and the album over the next couple of months. She was touring in Europe when Breaking the Circle was released too.

That has to be the centerfold for the booklet/vinyl (assuming it's a gatefold) or I'll eat my hat.

I tried listening to the new song again last night but I still can't enjoy it, sadly.

Hi, it's me.
I take it all back.

Loving Everything Is Sweet now.
It makes sense for it not to be a proper single, but it's grown on me and "tell me that you dream about us" gets me every time.

 

[kaushik]

I take it all back.
Loving Everything Is Sweet now.

Aww! Welcome back, @ssa

Honestly, if Sigala or Calvin or whoever could just rope her in for a feature... that might do something.

If only she'd done a collaboration with Purple Disco Machine or Richard X, for this album, it would pop off.

 

[kaushik]

I'm all for a collaboration between Sophie and Purple Disco Machine. Make it happen, universe! And while you're at it, also get Jack to digitally release that duet!

I'm happy to report that 4 of my friends have really gotten into the 2 new singles.

 

[New Flame]

Both 'Breaking The Circle' and 'Everything Is Sweet' are great.

I didn't expect to be one of the few defending Ed Harcourt songs in 2023 in this place, but here we are.

I'm loving the new tracks, just had a thought - really hope the CD will be in the same vein of the book style packaging as Wanderlust and Familia.

I hope so! I’d also love a little presentation box that you could slide all three books into like collected editions often have.

Okay so I'm finally turned behind Everything is Sweet, it's absolutely lovely and I caught myself humming that melody all day. My biggest issue is still weird and cheap mixing, which is also present on Breaking The Circle.

 

[kaushik]

Not from the album, but she's a GORGEOUS babe in this photoshoot for BBC Sounds.

 

[inevitable]

Can we get another cig approved remix like we did for the lead single, or at least one ready to go after the second single is out?
