I LOVE it!! :D The HQ leaked a while ago. I think it's definitely one of their stronger single releases. I hope people from the UK recognise their progress. I think the new record will be very very awesome!
Clips have surfaced as well. "Dance-Aholic" is sooooo amazing!! :D

I really like the single!
I'm just not convinced its strong enough to propel them into the UK charts.

It's a huge step up from their last single 'Goodbye To Yesterday' which sounded like lame dated 90's pop. Very 'Ace Of Base' but a lot more boredom included.
One Life has a proper hook and the production finally sounds full.
Wait until you hear the full album Tommy! :D I'll PM you when anything leaks.

Destiny is a really good album! I like the Dana Glover cover.
This looks like it'll be even better though, nice cover!

Glad that their back together. The album sampler is hot.
Is the other member still in jail?
Taller In More Ways - August 26, 2009 11:38 AM (GMT)
No she's out of prison luckily. :D
I'm really excited for this.

HEREwhat do you think of it? :D
TommyTank. - August 30, 2009 12:09 PM (GMT)
I actually quite like the sound of this!
chilln_chick2002 - August 30, 2009 10:00 PM (GMT)
I'm obsessed with Dance-aholic. It NEEDS to be a single!
Taller In More Ways - August 31, 2009 05:40 AM (GMT)
I think Up Against The Wall is my favourite so far.

I bought their album and I'm totally in love with their new sound. I think it's also their best album so far.
Taller In More Ways - September 17, 2009 03:53 PM (GMT)
Hmm, don't like it as much as DESTINY I have to admit.

For me Destiny is their second best album. But I think that Welcome To The Dance is more original, cause Destiny containes some cover versions and it was criticised for semi-plagiarism.
In addition the girls had more influence on their new album. They don't have any writing credits on Destiny. The majority of the new songs have been written for them, where Destiny only had the song Goodbye To Yesterday being exclusively written for them.
But that is just my own point of view. :)
Taller In More Ways - September 17, 2009 06:07 PM (GMT)
But they fact they didn't write anything on DESTINY doesn't necessarily mean that it doesn't sound good.
I think Welcome To The Dance lacks quality. I don't find anything particularly amazing except 'One Life' and 'Up Against The Wall' TBH. Yes, the album sounds different but f.e. Sarah Connor and Britney Spears did it better before.
Mr. Ace Reject - September 17, 2009 06:11 PM (GMT)
Well I don't think it lacks quality for the reasons I mentioned before. I don't think that Sarah Connor's Sexy As Hell is as good as Welcome To The Dance. And I won't compare Britney Spears with the No Angels, as the girls have much better voices.
I'm not trying to convince you to like their new album as much as I do. We have different opinions about it and that's absolutely okay.
I'm only not keen on Say Goodbye but love or at least like the other tracks.
Taller In More Ways - September 17, 2009 06:23 PM (GMT)
Say Goodbye is actually in my Top 5. ^^" It's definitely the second best ballad. Derailed is ahead of it though.
Mr. Ace Reject - September 17, 2009 06:29 PM (GMT)
Thunderstorm is the best ballad of the album.
Taller In More Ways - September 18, 2009 07:44 AM (GMT)
I'd definitely classify this as a midtempo.

Well then it is a midtempo ballad. I think these kind of songs exist.
Taller In More Ways - September 20, 2009 08:19 AM (GMT)
1. Up Against The Wall
2. One Life
3. Say Goodbye
4. Derailed
5. Down Boy
My ranking has slightly changed.
Taller In More Ways - September 30, 2009 01:35 PM (GMT)
I listen a lot to Thunderstorm. This track proved to be the biggest grower on the entire album.
chilln_chick2002 - September 30, 2009 02:54 PM (GMT)
Their next single will be Derailed B).
Definitely one of the best songs on the album.
