Re: 2024: An exciting year ahead
Something Techoish would be good ,I really hope the album is dancey with the odd ballad hopefully something sounding upbeat but have a feeling it's going to be sombre, they are really at their best when doing dance with a orchestra

However i hope it will be much better and more techno than just a simple happy song.Choliux wrote: Sun 28 Jan 2024, 4:45 pm I think it should be a song that capitalizes on the momentum they have from the Dreamworld tour. Definitely an upbeat song with pop-y lyrics and plenty of keyboards, rather than a slower song like Home and Dry or Before.
I think the same.
With the colour lights in the background I don't think is going to be a ballad.

The new single will be the first of a new era.
It must be liked by people who discovered the band with the old hits.
A song that is released for a 40 years anniversary.
A song that cannot be too much electro after the price trilogy, but petheads will complain if it's a ballad.
If it's an electro stomper, they will complain about the numerous ballads and say that the first single was the best.
It must represent the album too. It cannot sound the same as the previous one but must not be too different, burning the heather could have been on the new album.

This picture from the new video (we should guess for the lead single) doesn't seem too ballady or downtempo tbh. I'm guessing a midtempo like Flamboyant or Did you see me coming. Not a banger but classic PSB.

Re: 2024: An exciting year ahead
And there it is for all you debaters, yesterday I finally got excited over the prospect of soon getting to hear the new single. I'm sorry it took so long.
I can't believe it will be a slow song. I'm hoping for something political.
