Love me again is a fantastic song, it deserved better. And John seemed destined to big things but suddenly he faded a bit (even in UK their following singles didn't catch the hype)
And i liked all Calvin's USA singles with the exception of Thinking about you, so i expect to like this

Just saw Columbia promo newsletter and they used the "Summer" single cover on "Blame" Anyway, I'm expecting the radio premiere (I guess it will have one in the UK) soon.

When is BBC Radio 1 premiering this song?????? No idea, although it wasn't confirmed at all that BBC Radio 1 was going to premiere it. As I said before, I assume it's going to have a radio premiere in the UK, but there's still no words from Calvin or his management about it.
In other news, the digital release has been pushed back worldwide to September 7, with the exception of the UK and Ireland where the iTunes pre-order has been pulled out I really don't know what happened and I hope it's a glitch on those markets.

So, "Blame" is still not back on iTunes UK and Ireland, but the release date has been pushed forward to September 7 too, according to Amazon UK. Personally, this is a rare move if it's considered that the UK tends to have a delayed release to build up the momentum for a song with the radio plays and the music video. However, I just realized the following. Calvin is headlining the London iTunes Festival that day, so it could mean that he will premiere the track on his DJ set since the festival is available to stream and he/his label may (want to) pull a sort of OA/OS release. Being said that, if that actually happens, I hope John Newman makes a guest appearance and it could help with the sales.

It's a shame that we will have to wait another month or so for it, but I fully expect this to be worth the wait.

Calvin hasn't disappointed me yet. Although, I'm relatively easy on him, critically, because I adore him. But still.

Holy shit! Artwork:The length of the track is 3:34 and it's up again on iTunes UK and Ireland with "C.U.B.A" as a pre-order only. Also, it's confirmed that the digital release will be WW on September 7.

This sounds catchy; it also sounds very 2010 in terms of production.

Ugh! I hate when he uploads previews while I'm at work. Well, I could listen to it and I like it. I will be waiting to listen to the whole song, but John's vocals sounds really good so far.
Anyway, the question remains now if "Blame" will receive a radio premiere before its official release if it's considered that it will be released worldwide on September 7 or if he will premiere, as I said before, on his DJ set performance in the London iTunes Festival that day.
The announcement. Finally!

ETA: Still at work, but I could listen to it. As Glove Slap said, it seems like the intro and it's better than the first one.

Second clip > first clip, although the verse sounds lifted right out of "Love Me Again."

How long did he wait between premering Summer and putting it out in the UK? Wasn't it short as well?
It's crazy how despite not always singing on his songs, he can just drop a song and it'll be smashing on the UK charts just 2-3 weeks later.

Premiering on September 4, according to this week's Columbia promo newsletter. Yay! Although I was expecting him to make a WW debut in his iTunes Festival performance that day. Anyway, I just saw Columbia promo newsletter and I'm wondering where will he debut the track, since it's not mentioned. I guess it will be in the UK, although I would find very interesting if it's in the US actually. However, why did they keep using the same artwork for "Summer" to promote this? How long did he wait between premiering Summer and putting it out in the UK? Wasn't it short as well? Actually, it wasn't short because it followed the same pattern that the UK releases usually have. I mean, "Summer" was premiered on March 14 on Capital FM and it was put immediately as a pre-order, being out there on April 27.
