A place to discuss The Circus...

Since there isn't a place to do so I thought I would start a new thread to discuss the new album. Favourite tracks, lyrics etc. Which songs you'd like to hear released etc etc!! Whatever you've got to discuss regarding The Circus we wanna hear about it here!!! xx

Great idea Leanne!
We haven't got to it so i'm glad you took the initiative!

Gosh, what do i think about the new album...
mmmm... i'm speechless!
And I'm being totally objective! It didn't grow on me- it was my cup of tea fro mth efirsttime listening

The abum is perfect! i don't have even one song that i dislike! All songs are fierce, very istrumental, beautiful lyrics, very soulful, all the lads sound perfect... I could go on and on...

My favorite is She Said, in case anyone hasn't heard me yet
"...boogy, everyone now boog-e-e-e-y..."

Next single is Julie, according to all the rumors going around right now.. It's a lovely song as well, i can sing the "sha-la-la i want you" by heart now

Oh yay! I was going to start a thread but I thought knowing me I'd just missed the proper one! I'm dying to know what everyones fave tracks are!!!

Mine are:

Said It All
Up All Night
Hold Up A Light (can't wait to see this in concert!!! An audience number for sure!)
How Did It Comes To This
The Garden
The Circus
She Said
and Greatest Day of course!

I want any of the top five to be singles, I would LOVE Jay to have some vocals on a single, his voice (like the others) is getting stronger with each release.

I defo think it's the best album yet! I love how they allow their fans to grow with them. Their music is so grown up now, but still really fun with that swing/cabaret/beatles/folk/pop thing. Classic TT and yet such a fresh sound. Markies influence is obvious, which makes it fresher than Gary writing all the material (even though I wouldn't have minded one more Barlow Ballad on the album) I'm so relieved coz every time a new album comes out I worry I won't adore it and my love for them will end, but they just improve every time and I genuinely love every single one. I'm soooooo happy!!! I'm in LOVE with the album!!!!

I like reading your posts, sooo fluently worded jeez))
I relate to each word, i've the same fear and each time they just outdo themselves!
their comeback has been their greatest decision so far!
A european tour would be their OTHER very smart decision

Me too! EVERY song I've ever heard has had to grow on me, but this album I loved immediately! Back For Good was one of the only songs I ever loved from the first time I heard it, most I go "not bad" and then I learn to love it as I become familiar with it and learn the lyrics. I'm going to play this one to death, I can tell. It will get me through the next ten years!!

Julie for me is one of my least faves, I love it but there's all of the above songs that I love more. I'd be a bit disappointed if it was the next single to be honest.

Hopefully, we won't have to wait a decade for the following TT album (is it too soon to start looking forward to their next masterpiece?)

Lol, thanks! I should have said I worry my love for them will fade though - not die. It will NEVER die! But I have that fear each time "What if it's genuinely not that great?! O_O" But we've not been let down yet! I love this album so much it makes me wanna cry! Seriously! I'm so proud of them!

Their comeback will go down in history, it's one of the most successful comebacks in history. Go lads! Who knows what could have happened if they'd never split, but at least we got some smashing new material after staying devoted all decade. They are greater than the sum of their parts. The four of them together are just the perfect combination.

Oh god I hope not! I'm not ready to hear any sort of 'Yes the rumors are true..." phrases at the moment. I would die. DIE. I would love some Gaz solo stuff though, then another TT album, then some more Gaz then TT... you know, I'm not picky! Just new stuff from my guys!!! Those empty years were hard.

I love

The Garden (For the fact that they ALL have their own part in the song including Jay which is something which has never been done before and I absolutely love it that they're giving Jay more opportunities to 'shine'!!)

Hello
Said It All
How Did it Come To This
Up All Night
She Said

I too have to agree with Mand that there are better single worthy tracks on the album than Julie, if it was called Leanne I might consider it more!!!

I think 'Mandy' has proven itself to be a hit worthy song title!!

A good choice of faves there! Although I would say that no matter what you put coz it's all brill! I agree, The Garden would be fantastic. Although Jay was on Never Forget his part is equal this time around and he really rises to the challenge.

I love the whole shared lyrics thing - Gaz and Mark in Said It All. I never understood why they didn't do that more!

I do agree with you in every song !!!!... Have I missed any song. Might change in a month... who knows.Not sure
Julie is ok, but not good for me to be single, Will consider if the name's Ginny.... Who wouldnt consider if its her name???

And i'd love if in some genious way Gaz could sing instead of "SHE said" - "JENNY said..."!! AS i keep saying it for quite some time but Gaz just won't listen:D
