My copy arrived this morning :D So many tracks to listen to and even though I have the original release I can see already the wonderful work Richard has done in making these recordings of Matt truly come alive. Hearing 'I Will Wait For You', a song that has a really special meaning for my partner an...

I've asked in a couple of my local WH Smith's but all I get is the shake of a head. I hope the stock arrives soon, as I'm really looking forward to hearing Matt sing 'The Last Farewell'. I have not heard this track before but imagining him singing it I think it will really suit his voice. #For you a...

Hello everyone I had an email from HMV yesterday morning to say my order has been posted. I can't wait to play the cd's full blast in the car on the way to work, and see for myself what Richard has achieved this time with his magic touch. I'm sure Matt will sound fantastic, but then he always does! ...

Hi everyone

I had an email from HMV this afternoon to say my order is in the post....

#So spread sunshine all over the place
Just put on a happy face#

Yes, I have pre-ordered from HMV too & can't wait until the postie brings it to me!

#I’m wishing every hour away
And every chance I get I pray
That soon I’ll hear the doorbell ringing#

Thank you Richard for the info... I'll be ordering my copy later today.

#Nobody else ever warmed like this
You captured me from the start
And the love that you bring
Is a beautiful thing
Fills my empty heart#

Hello everyone Just listened to Matt singing 'The Precious Moments', a favourite track of mine and it got me thinking it would make an excellent title for compilation of his lesser known recordings... so here is my personal selection a few of Matt's tracks which don't get so much airplay as others.....

Hello everyone I've just heard Matt's recording for the first time and once again this man's vocal has made this 40+ guy have tears in his eyes.... a wonderful recording, Matt's unique sound gets to me every time...I just wish Matt had taken the time to record it a second time in English... #It's fr...

More like 'precious moments' i'd say...

#Yes, these are the moments we all should recall
Moments and memories of dreams great and small
Guess we were lucky to know them at all
Yes, we were lucky to know them at all#

I received an email from play.com to say my copy had been dispatched... hopefully it will arrive today!

Hello everyone Yes, I requested 'From Russia With Love' and Sir Terry read out my name along with my partner Clintons after he played the song. I know from what Terry always says after he plays anything by our Matt that he is a fan, so you can safely say if you get in early enough we usually get to ...

My guess is 1970

Cheers,
