Another boyband.
Union J - Carry You was written by hitmaker Steve Mac.

Not Steve's best cut to be honest but I guess it will chart high in the UK.
Started out promising, but ouch, that chorus is weak. I feel for them a little bit being an X-Factor boyband, they're always going to be compared to One Direction and will most likely get lost amongst the myriad of emerging groups, most of them from singing competitions.

wikipedia says there are at least 2 dr luke/bonnie songs on the album so watch out.
Yes, the main problem with Carry You is that chorus... but the verses are strong.
One of these guys just came out of the closet and he's the best singer on the band.
"Beautiful Life" is the new single and it's quite good.
Typical boyband stuff, but a bit more mature than expected.

Listened to the album, this isn't bad but not overwhelming.
What I enjoyed besides the singles:
Last goodbye (pure bubble-gum pop)
The covers "Amaze me" (Original by No Angels) and Skyscraper are just good songs and it's nice to hear male versions of the songs. These guys have quite good voices.

Nice and poppy.
Union J - Tonight (We Live Forever)
Quote"We've had an absolute blast recording new material - working with some of the world's best songwriters and producers has been a dream come true and we can't wait for people to hear what we've done."
QuoteThe band have been writing and recording new material both in the UK and the States working with songwriters such as Jamie Scott (One Direction, The Vamps and 5SOS, Jessie), Jessie Shatkin (Kylie Minogue, Sia) and Red Triangle (Little Mix, One Direction) along with music heavyweights such as Ryan Tedder and Diane Warren.

Aww sweety that's absolutely no problem. :-*
Me neither, so we got that in common! We're still fully accepted members of this community though. :D
So just for the future - don't want you to be confused no more:
The word "
he" describes a
male person, whilst "
they" describes a
group of 2 or more people.
("
She" describes a
female person.)

im sick and tired of these boybandz
I'm sick of you talking about your "club bangerz" for Ellie Goulding and Taylor Swift.
And... I don't these kids neither.
"Last Goodbye" is SO good from their debut. Still love it.
They are back, new single:
