I'm loving the brand new Steps album "What The Future Holds Pt. 2". It's so catchy. It was originally intended to be just an expanded edition of their 2020 album, but they recorded so many good songs that it became a whole new studio album. Lucky us!
I'm a huge Sheena Easton fan so I'm very happy about getting her brand new collection "The Definitive Singles 1980-1987" yesterday. It consists of three remastered discs packed with hits, plus rare and unreleased songs and remixes, for example the lost 1986 tracks "Anything Can Happen" and "Sweet Talker" from 1986. I love it!
I don't buy one track CD singles anymore, but I had to make an exception for the ABBA singles "I Still Have Faith In You" and "Don't Shut Me Down". It's nice to have them in the collection. I'm so glad my childhood heroes are back! I can't wait for the "Voyage" album to be released.
Wow. I still can't believe that ABBA are back, for real. I've been a huge fan since I was a child and their music means the world to me. I was terribly bullied as a child and listening to ABBA and Agnetha's solo music was my escapism. So yesterday's news about a brand new ABBA album made me so emotional. I cried through the livestream and the new songs.
It's like a dream come true. I don't care what anyone else says, I love it. The two first singles from the album, "I Still Have Faith In You" and "Don't Shut Me Down" are out digitally now and although I love both, the latter is my personal favourite of the two. I can't wait to hear the full album.
So the brand new album "Voyage" will be released on November 5 and you can pre-order it now from ABBA Voyage and most other outlets. It's available digitally, on CD, vinyl and cassette. Check out the tracklist down below. It's interesting to finally see the unreleased ABBA tracks "Just A Notion" and "Bumblebee" released. This will be iconic

Eighties pop never dies! I really love my signed copy of the fabulous debut album by Danish pop duo Fyr Og Flamme. The duo consists of the handsome guys Jesper Groth and Laurits Emanuel. They competed in the Eurovision Song Contest 2021 with the hit single "Øve Os På Hinanden" that I fell for right away.
The whole album is great but my favourite track right now is the catchy "112" which is a tribute to the sound of Danish eighties duo Laban's classic "Love In Siberia". I highly recommend this fantastic retro album, so get it now!
New CD's in my record collection: "Free - The Columbia/Arc Recordings 1976-1988" by fabulous US singer Deniece Williams. It includes eleven remastered albums filled with amazing music from the seventies and eighties. Highly recommended!
I'm loving the new CD box set "Requiem: The London Boys Story", just released by Cherry Pop Records. It includes the dance-pop duo's first three studio albums "The Twelve Commandments Of Dance" (1988), "Sweet Soul Music" (1991) and "Love 4 Unity" (1993), plus a ton of remixes and edits, all remastered.
The duo is best known for their singles "Requiem", "London Nights" and "Harlem Desire" which are all here, including all the remixes by the amazing PWL team. The box set is a very nice tribute to the London Boys themselves, Dennis Fuller and Edem Ephraim, who sadly passed away in a car accident in 1996. May their music live on forever.
