LISTEN TO THE SONG HERE:fuckyahedley.tumblr.com/post/9284150721/hedley-invincible-non-rap-versionfuckyahedley.tumblr.com/post/9283755215/hedley-invincible-rap-version-ft-p-reignUniversal Music Canada – the country’s leading music company – is pleased to announce that Vancouver's chart-topping rockers, Hedley are back with a new single, "Invincible" that will be at radio on August 22nd. Fans will be able to purchase "Invincible" digitally from August 23rd.They've already shot the video, which was described as "a video portraying emotional vignettes of everyday people in the midst of life's battles." Also, they just mentioned that they worked with Desmond Child and Babyface on the new album, so that's interesting. More about the song: Our first single is a song called "Invincible". We are very proud of it and have worked super hard to deliver a song that not only lyrically means a lot to us, but sounds killer doing 80 with the windows rolled down.

Some interesting names there. I'm hoping this is less auto-tune and more pop-rock. Their last album, for me, was awful. Was too over-produced, computerized and, well, auto-tuned to death. Besides of course Perfect, which was decent.

The Show Must Go wasn't my favorite Hedley album, but I did enjoy it a lot. I agree that I would like to see the new one be a bit less overproduced, so we'll see. I'm very interested to hear it after the collaborators they mentioned.

I just heard it. I like it a lot.  It's definitely different for them, not nearly as rock sounding as I had expected/hoped, but that's okay. P. Reign is on the song.  But it's only for like 20 seconds, and I don't think he's credited in the title. |

The single is out on iTunes! I edited the title of the thread since the version with P. Reign seems to be playing on radio and will be in the music video.
The iTunes single for $1.99 has:
1. Invincible (Rap Version) [feat. P. Reign]
2. Invincible
I prefer the rapless version. I don't mind the rap, but I really like what Jake does in that part of the rapless version.

New Hedley! I must check this out....
*Buys on iTunes*
Interesting, an uplifting mid-tempo. Meh, I usually like rap parts in non-rap songs, but P. Reign does not belong there.
I agree, the non-rap version is better.

Can't believe it hasn't been uploaded to hulkshare or mediafire yet.
Checked out a radio rip on yoputube, I gotta hear it in HQ to see if I like it.

I don't mind this, but I don't love it either. Their lead singles are never my favourites though. I usually like the follow-ups much better (except for maybe "On My Own"). And I agree: P Reign doesn't belong on this.

I don't like the font they used. Should have went with something more minimalist.

I made an album thread like a couple weeks ago but no one posted in it. lol
I'm not a big fan of the cover. But I'm sure the music will be great. Here's "One Life" from the We Day event:

I really enjoyed (and actually purchased) the first two albums. I didn't like the last one, I thought it was terrible. But this one seems good so far. Have only heard about 4-5 songs and I've liked them all so far.

I like the album. I don't love it at this point, which is different than my experiences with the other albums. There are definitely some standouts for me (Bullet For Your Dreams, Stormy, Last Call) and I don't really dislike any of the songs. I'm sure I'll like it more as I listen. And I'll be seeing them live in March. |
