  • Boy and Union Street

    I have just been flicking through Amazon.co.uk, as I like to do occasionally to see if there are lots of goodies that I want to buy. Did you know that Acorn Antiques the Musical is now avalable on DVD? I wanted to see this in London but it was totally booked up for when I could go. I think the DVD will be just as good though, according to the reviews.

    And then I noticed that Erasure have released a single. It is called Boy and was released on Monday. When I looked into it further I noticed there is a new album on the way. Called 'Union Street' (named after the infamous road in Plymouth??) and here are the tracks:
    1 Boy
    2 Piano Song
    3 Stay With Me
    4 Spiralling
    5 Home
    6 Tenderest Moments
    7 Alien
    8 Blues Away
    9 How Many Times?
    10 Love Affair
    11 Rock Me Gently

    So it looks like it's gonna be a compilation as all these are tracks from previous albums.

    The Circus: Spiralling
    Wild!: Piano Song, How Many Times?
    Chorus: Home
    I Say I Say I Say: Blues Away
    Run To The Sun (B-Side): Tenderest Moments
    Erasure: Stay With Me, Rock Me Gently
    Cowboy: Boy, Love Affair
    Loveboat: Alien

    So is it worth getting? There are some lovely tracks there, especially Rock me gently, which I dont think was released here. They are obviously going for a slow and emotive pace this time. And nice to have them all on one disc, so I probably will! So a definite thumbs up from me!
