Between the release of Nick’s new album last week and “The Perfect Fan” demo dropping yesterday, May has been a great month for BSB fans, especially us Frick & Frack girlies! I’m loving all this new (and old) music! “Storms” is my current favorite track on Nick’s album. It’s such a beautiful song, both musically and lyrically, and it’s both poignant and deeply personal. Sometimes I listen to songs and immediately think, This will inspire a story someday. “Storms” is definitely one of those. I’m also enjoying the all-Brian version of “The Perfect Fan.” I know the fandom has mixed feelings about Brian and this song, but I’ve always loved both. To have this previously unheard recording of Brian’s beautiful voice in its prime is such a precious gift! I appreciate every note of it.
In other news, my school year is winding down, and I’m already getting into summer mode with my writing. I had an amazingly productive writing weekend last weekend and am finally getting ahead of myself with The World Will Be Waiting again. Chapter 72 has been posted! This chapter revolves around the recording of one of my favorite BSB singles, “In a World Like This.” I drew inspiration from one of the deleted scenes from the documentary. Enjoy!
I know about Nicks new album, and he re-recorded Hlep Me from his first solo work. I’m not sure how I feel about the new version. I’ll have to go and relisten to it again. I’ll have to give Stomes a listen.
I didn’t know that the song ‘The Perfect Fan demo dropped. Going to download that song to my apple music right now.
I may be in the minority, but I like the re-recorded version of Help Me! Not better than the original, by any means, but the upbeat 80s sound gives it a fresh, fun vibe. Definitely listen to Storms! It’s so beautiful but also heartbreaking. Enjoy The Perfect Fan demo, too!
Yes, the Perfect Fan demo is amazing!!! You can tell with the album version that they used parts of the demo for that record. I can’t wait for Millennium 2.0 to drop in July!!! I wish BSB would releast more things on vinyl records.
And there song ‘What Hurts the Most is really good too.
