Union J - Album 2 Discussion (inc. singles)

Lander · Aug 31, 2014

They seemed quite aware of their need to step up and create their own identity between their first album and this one but it's all talk at this point.

I don't understand why they even got given this single?
Anyone with a brain could see that they were doomed from the start.

Jeffo · Aug 31, 2014

I'm not sure how anyone at the label thought this was the hit single they needed.

Robsolete · Aug 31, 2014

It sounds like more of a hit than any of their other singles, but it's still not great.

That drop in the charts is ridiculous. It's a shame as they're nice guys, but they're surely going to be dropped now.

Save The Last Dance is still the "hit" (=single that stays in the top 40 for more than a week) that wasn't.

Lander · Aug 31, 2014

Yaaay, Luigi.

Only if there was a single edit that cut out that terrible held-out last note.

Agree with all the points here - they need to distance themselves from the 1D sound - no one wants a 2nd rate 1D they need their own identity. The thing is, if the whole 2nd album is similar to 'Tonight' then it aint gonna work and they'd be better going back to the drawing board unless they've got a smash waiting to happen - wasn't there a ryan tedder song? surely having that 'tag' will help. I'm really rooting for them but seems unlikely they can turn it around.

I can't get over how much Tonight has tanked. They need to get it together if they are gonna get another album out.

Union J are supporting The Vamps on their tour next year - the dream is officially over!

AcerBenII · Sep 11, 2014

I assumed that they were going to be marketed as the new Westlife and mainly do ballads. But perhaps that wouldn't work in 2014. I dunno.

I so want to go to this now. It's not good news for Union J but I'll love it at least. I hate the idea of them becoming a new Westlife. I can see the album being pushed back until next year at this rate.

idratherjack · Sep 11, 2014

I can see the album never getting released at all...

Zamin · Oct 4, 2014

I really liked the lead single, what happened next?

It obviously looks like Union J are pretty much over, but why does them opening for The Vamps have anything to do with it?

MYCAL · Oct 4, 2014

It's just not working is it.

Robsolete · Oct 4, 2014

Considering it's worked for Nick Jonas, maybe it's time one of them flashed a bit of D. JJ or Josh, please.

Rasterax · Oct 5, 2014

It would be a shame if they went out without at least one gratitious skin shoot.

Just did a bit of rummaging through their Twitter feed and it looks like a new single is "coming soon." They've already filmed a music video.
