1. Love In A Rainbow 2. Roll With You 3. Golden Days 4. It's Gonna Be All Right (The Panic Attack Song) 5. Amazing Grace 6. One Voice 7. If I Loved You 8. Born Free 9. Parisienne Walkways 10. I Who Have Nothing 11. The Kissing Me Song 12. Story Of A Heart 13. Can't Help Falling In Love
No big surprises and kind of like Roger's Fun On Earth more of a compilation of the last few years.
5/13 are the collected post Anthems singles -
Roll With You/Amazing Grace/One Voice/Born Free/The Kissing Me Song
1/13 - From the recent Air Guitar Album:
Parisienne Walkways
3/13 - Studio versions of songs from the acoustic shows:
I (Who Have Nothing)/If I Loved You/Can't Help Falling In Love
SO that leaves us with 4 "new" tracks...kind of.
Golden Days is obviously the Minako Honda track Brian wrote and produced a while back - he mentioned in on his twitter/soapbox at one point - so again no surprise.
That leaves the only possible new tracks as: Love In A Rainbow/It's Gonna Be All Right (The Panic Attack Song)/Story of A Heart. 2 of the "new" tracks look to be actually new as I don't see songs entitled Love in a Rainbow or The Panic Attack Song. Story of a Heart MAY be the Benny Anderson (ABBA tracks)
All in all - could still be good, but it does show how much Brian has slowed down over the years...

Good to see the doc's still busy - but it doesn't look like he's writing too many songs anymore. These are largely covers, no?

Seems like it. 5-10 and 13 are all out and out covers. 3 is a cover of a Brian song. 2 and 11 are previously released singles (as are covers 5, 6, and 8) leaving tracks 1,4, and 12 (which may be a cover). It does look like tracks 1 and 4 will be unheard and original at least. 12 possibly.

AND as the press release has shown up I can confirm that Story of a Heart is the Benny Andersson track but Love in a Rainbow is a May/Ellis piece while the Panic Attack track is solely a May composition.

And it has the most cringeworthy song of all time five tracks in.
Thank God for track skipping on CDs although I'd have preferred it if they'd stuck it on the end then I wouldn't have to get up halfway through the album to skip it it.

Ah man that has got to be the most cringeworthy sleeve ever, a picture of the 66 World Cup winners would have been nice. Big brian fan but come on man....

Not sure why but not so exciting news for me, maybe sick of the whole kerry ellis obsession, I will definitely give it a listen but damn I wish he would do a solo album or
spend some time on old queen not released material, wishful thinking.......LOL

How could you be sick of the Kerry Ellis "obsession" when there has only been one studio l.p. from over half a decade ago?! Seriously?!

Good for him, I hope she sits on his face as well.

According to the track list, it seems a weak album...
