I actually prefer Nicky singing that to a certain guest singer who completely bombs.

I would have preferred a duet with James and Nicky on the actual album.

As I have said previously my 2 CD version arrived today, I immediatley stuck it on the CD player to listen to, got half way through, and the CD started skipping!! Took the CD out, and it is seriously scratched!! So I cannot even listen to the second half of the album!! GUTTED!! Have not had any problems with Townsend in the past, and have just emailed them to let them know!! But as I have avoided listening to any leaks until the album came out I am gutted that I now have the album, and still cannot listen to it fully!!

One of the sales guys will get to your email on Monday morning. You'll likely need to return the item to us to be checked and replaced but they'll send you all the details on how to do that. They're all sent factory sealed so any disk damage is factory error

Thank for your reply Kev, Yes, I meant to mention that its obviously not Townsend's fault that its scratched, as it was sealed. Like you say its either factory error or its somehow got damaged whilst being delivered. Appreciate your reply mate. You know how it is though, when you've been waiting for something to arrive, and it gets to you damaged! Its infuriating! Appreciate your help though Kev. Thanks.

I'd never be confident of Play's deliveries making it before or even on release date - you only have the free delivery option and usually it takes between 3-5 days for something to arrive.

At least you don't have Amazon's expected arrival date of 'October 12'. I expect my copy hopefully by Friday. By October 12, my CDs could swim across the Atlantic and I could catch up with them a week or so later when I'm in eastern Canada.

Nice to have a person from Townsend actually on the forum! Had a good service so far, looking forward to getting my album and deluxe version either tomorrow or later in the week!
