This Brilliant Album He's Made

  • May 29, 2007
  • Popjustice

Today's Song Of The Day is the quite incred­ible new Darren Hayes single and that is 'quite incred­ible' in the 'totally amazing' sense of things.

Despite an up and down rela­tion­ship with the Top Forty, Darren Hayes is still capable – and allowed to — churn out a brilliant pop album every few years or so and his new one, 'This Delicate Thing We've Made' is probably his best to date.

It is out in August, which is prac­tic­ally Christmas, and this is any early heads-up on one of your future favourite albums of the year.

So as well as letting you listen to 'On The Verge Of Something Wonderful' here is another track from the new album. The single is a straight­for­ward piece of uplifting elec­tro­pop genius but 'Me, Myself & I' is a quirky 80s influ­enced pop track which is both similar to and every bit a good as everything Unklejam are doing at the present moment in time – and everyone loves an UnkleJam single.

Listen to 'Me Myself & I' here.

And if you didn't like this then perhaps you will prefer a picture of Darren's dog Wally instead.
