Hello Andrews, Yes, Odsysey was the only thing that got me through my final exams (results which are coming out next week, and i am dying of nervesII) these exams determine my university entrance. Prayer, in particular, was the song i listened to before each exam. It just relaxed my mind and it's also a very spiritual song. No, i don't think anyone will find you selfish...someone had to win it! Anyway, we will all be getting the same CD soon anyway, only with more tracks on it!! Dori

...I hope you will give us a review of the five tracks, please! Best Wishes from London, Richard I brief overview would be most welcome but I wouldn't give too much away by describing it in detail. We don't want to spoil the element of surprise for everyone when they get the album. Roger

Hi Andrew & everyone (Andrew said:) Andrew, of course I am very pleased for you and yes, as you say, at least a member of HWI secured it , which is really great. There is another one of these albums for sale but I expect I will come up against some tough bidding again if I decide to go for it. I am sure that it is something you will always "treasure" and maybe Hayley could sign it for you next time you meet !! Very well done. All the best and hope to meet you soon Mark.

Hi Andrew
Congratulations on winning the first "new" promo!!
I didn't bid because I guessed it would go for a good price which you were obviosly prepared to pay for the privilege of owning the first one.
It will be interesting to see how much the next one goes for but I guess there'll be a few more offered in the weeks to come.
Best of luck with your exams.
Grant

Yes, well done, Andrew, congratulations. At least an HWIer got hold of it. If you had to place your bet as ahead of the final circus, I wonder how close or far the second highest bidder bid? Could it have been just a twenty?

What intrigues me, Andrew, is why £72? £70 I could understand and £75. How did you arrive at £72--to pip anyone going for £70 but not wanting to be pushed to £75? What was your thinking?

Just thought I would clarify things for Peter. When you place a bit ebay only use a part of it to keep you ahead if your bid is sufficient. The maximum a person is prepared to go to is only known by the bidder. May I add my congratulations to Andrew on winning the cd,it will be interesting to see who gets the second one.

Hi All, I'll give you one guess as to what I've just received through the mail... Yes... it's the 5-track promotional CD of Hayley's new material... and let me tell you this REALLY IS SOMETHING ELSE!!!WOW..... You are all going to be RAPTUROUS when you hear this on 'Treasure'... The sound is fantastic- quite different to 'Odyssey'... I was struck by the "even purer" quality of Hayley's vocals (is that possible? Well just wait until you hear this...) The musical accompaniment adds an incredible depth too! I'm playing the CD at a very high volume at the moment though my Bose multi speaker system!!! I'm flying... The new music from Hayley takes her into a new dimension and there's a touch of a celtic flavour there too. I'm very excited because this surely is going to be really BIG... . What a fantastic result Hayley! This is by far the best material I have ever heard from Hayley!!! I can see why she has entitled her new album 'Treasure'... Gosh, I've got those goose pimples/ goose bumps again... Hayley thank you for shining such a brilliant light on us all...God Bless You. Here are some new scanned images from the CD cover: My powers of observation tell me that the original photograph would have looked like the image below... If you look at the way Hayley's hair is parted (it is more commonly parted on the left). ... and yes, if you look closely I think we've seen this picture before! (on one of the proposed covers for 'Treasure'). Regards, Andrew

Your comments don't really surprise me Andrew.
I expected we would be experiencing a "new" Hayley and now I'm even more excited about hearing the new album.
At least this time I'll be prepared! When I first heard Odyssey I didn't like it at all, but then I was expecting a repeat of Pure which it certainly wasn't!!
Didn't take me long to realise though!
Best wishes
Grant

Andrew,
Is One Fine Day the version that Katherine Jenkins sang?

Andrew, Is One Fine Day the version that Katherine Jenkins sang? Hi Meagan, I don't know... 'One Fine Day' must be on 'Living a Dream' (which I didn't buy! ) It certainly isn't on 'Premiere' or 'Second Nature'. I'm sure Hayley's version of 'One Fine Day' will "blow all the others out of the water!!!" Regards, Andrew
