Bananarama are back with their brand new single Feel The Love.
The track is the first to be lifted from the duo’s forthcoming 40th anniversary LP ‘Glorious: The Ultimate Collection’, featuring tracks from the past four decades.
It’s one of two new songs on the collection, which spans their Top 5 breakthrough Really Saying Something to the duo’s most-recent LP, ‘Masquerade’ (2022).
Listen to Feel The Love below.
“We wanted this to be a unique collection, a celebration of all the twists and turns in our career,” says Sara Dallin of the set. “We compiled endless lists of songs, album tracks and hit singles and whittled it down to forty: our favourite tracks from the past four decades.
“Leafing through my early lyric books transported me back to that teenage girl writing poems and scribbles that would eventually be turned into songs. Each track … is a piece of the jigsaw and a connection to me. Together they create the bigger picture, the story of us as artists. It has been one almighty journey.”
Keren Woodward adds: “At times we have maybe felt that we haven’t received the credit, respect, and recognition we deserve, certainly sometimes purely down to the fact we were born female.
“I feel the collection of songs we have amassed over the last four decades hopefully speak for themselves, so I don’t have to. Putting the music together for this project… made me realise how much we have achieved and how determined, tenacious, and hardworking we are.”
In addition, they’ll play a special London Palladium show to mark the release on April 3, 2024.
‘Glorious – The Ultimate Collection’ is available to pre-order now. Tickets for the Palladium gig go on sale Wednesday (October 25).
