2School4Cool 6,449 Posted September 18, 2020 Share Posted September 18, 2020 I’m so excited! I’ve been waiting for an announcement since To Die For was postponed. I love the new cover and song, I can’t wait for the album! See The Best In Everyone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tracks that were previously released for To Die For are all included as bonus tracks (except for their cover of I Feel Love which isn’t on Love Goes at all). I’m not sure how many of the other songs were originally intended to be on To Die For but I do believe they’ve been writing and recording during the pandemic, and there are more tracks on this album so we’re getting a longer album .

I'm hoping it is just to follow the trend and the album will have a different sound 'cause I really like the ex-singles What if tomorrow I see you again? Should I say that I used to love you?

But honeslty, what’s with artists putting 2+ years old singles on their new album? It gets the album more streams and also gives those singles a physical release if they didn't already have one.

thatfoxyfeeling 13,019 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I really can’t get into it, I’ve loved their first two albums but this sounds like two projects combined and is a bit of a mess. I think they/their label made the mistake of not releasing an album last year with the singles Promises, How Do You Sleep? and Dancing With A Stranger.

RockCandySweet 175 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I haven’t heard the whole album yet and I wasn‘t a fan of Sam Smith before, but I really liked Diamonds, Dancing with a Stranger, How Do You Sleep?, To Die For, Fire on Fire and Promises. I‘m so excited to her the rest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightadieu 4,531 Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 People who don't like an artist evolving and trying out some new sounds will be disappointed – I, for my part, really liked the album, it is well produced and contains a good mix of the songs you would expect to hear and some that are out of their comfort zone. Some songs are stripped down ballads, some songs further explore the dance genre that they've stepped into last year, some songs have no instrumental at all while others end with a bang. Some songs will make you wanna dance while others make you wanna cry. This album really is an experience from start to finish if you're open for it.

bluemonkey 639 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 I love the album! I wouldn’t say it’s perfect but it’s enjoyable and he’s breaking out of his shell. Love this merch, thinking if I should get the signed copy or not.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damon 10,904 Posted November 1, 2020 Share Posted November 1, 2020 i hare how basic they become, they used to be really interesting and nostalgic but now it's like they just chase the trending sounds ... and now i just sit in silence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
