Maybe one of these:

- Dreamworld DVD/BluRay
- 4th single (digital accompanying the ROH-shows)
- more Dreamworld shows in 2025
- 12" remix vinyls
- maxi-CD-boxset (Parlophone back catalogue project)
- new project "Naked" in a London theatre

Announcing Secret of happiness as a single would be a nice tie-in with hitting 70.
Woof.

As exciting as that is, fingers crossed for single #4... 🤞
E Smoove has remixed Winner and Danny Rampling is putting it in the megamix.
Now I know that I gots to get me some.

Yup, the more I think about it, the more I reckon this could be single #4. I love the song in its own right, but releasing it as a single is also a powerful statement against the "all their stuff sounds the same" nonsense. What better time for that than Neil's 70th and 40 years since the original West End girls.

Full on electronic version! It could work really well.

—So Neil, you look quite happy on your 70th anniversary.
—Well I am. The secret of happiness is our next single.

I can totally see that :lol:

It's less than one week after the previous single was released on CD. Don't you think it's too soon to reveal next single?

Yes it is, although the unofficial announcement of Bohemia happened at the Q&A which was some time before the official announcement. I'm sure it's not a single announcement. Something unexpected maybe...?
