Hey guys,
To help promote Hayley's upcoming RAF tour, I will be conducting a second interview with Hayley for my website.
It won't be the epic interview it was last time, as obviously, I have already interviewed once, so don't want to cover ground that has already been covered. Also, I mainly want to focus on the tour (as that is what it's for) and perhaps her second album.
I'll conduct the interview and then give fan questions at the end so feel free to submit questions you want to ask Hayley (I will say who's asking them) but avoid questions about the tour as I will be asking those! Obviously, I won't include them all because I don't want to monopolise her time (I took 30 minutes from her last time - far too long! She's a busy lady!)

Hi Nicola I think this is something we all want to know so perhaps you could ask something like this .... "Quite a few of your fans have asked if there are going to be any self penned tracks on your new album - we all love the songs you have written yourself. Can you confirm that there will be and perhaps give an indication of how many?" Thanks Nicola - enjoy the interview  Best wishes Grant |

Oh, I'll be truly looking forward to this interview, Nicola. May I add a question, even when I am not sure if Hayley will be able to reply? The question is:
"Will your new album be promoted and made available through Europe wider than the previous ones? And ever thought of making a wide European tour?"
Also, I am sure some of us would find interesting to know this other question:
"Will your new album be intended to enter the UK Classical charts or not necessarily?"

Hi Nicola,
Great you get to interview her again! You could ask her if she has any idea (roughly) when her next album is likely to be released. I don't expect an exact date, after all the release date of Winter Magic was changed at the last moment, but a month or even a quarter would be good.

I have 2 questions. I hope you can include at least one; both are very important to me. Feel free to edit as you wish (i.e., the part where I'll die if she doesn't come to B.C.):
1. In your last interview with Nicola, you mentioned that you would like to perform in Canada. How likely is this to happen in the near future, and how extensive might your tour of Canada be? And please come to British Columbia while you're there, or I'll die!
2. In your book "The World at Her Feet", you listed Josh Groban as an artist you'd one day like to collaborate/duet with. Are you still interested in singing with Josh, and do you think a duet with him is possible anytime soon? You're both amazing singers, and songwriters, too! It would be an excellent way to increase your popularity in the U.S.

Hi Nicola,
I know I have had one go, but here's another just in case. I admire you as a songwriter (and it goes without sayinfg as a singer first of all), I think you have a real and increasing talent for it. How do you go about writing a song? Where does the inspiration come from? Do you struggle to think of an idea, or do they just seem to come to you and pour out of you, as if inspired from outside yourself.
Or something like that.

I think my main question for Hayley would be: "Do you know if Hayley Sings Japanese Songs 2 will ever be available for sale in Britain?" A matter of considerable interest to me personally |

Hello Nicola!  "https://i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifo you know if Hayley Sings Japanese Songs 2 will ever be available for sale in Britain?" Could you make that HSJS 1 and 2, please? Richard |

HI Elliot and Richard,
Both HSJS and HSJS2 are available new (standard edition) from Amazon U.K. at £11.99 and £16.99 respectively. They are obviously imports and would surely sell better if released officially with some promotion.
I don't know if they are available elsewhere in the U.K.

I think it is unlkely that HSJS 1 and 2 will be released here any time soon, if ever. There seems to be some sort of legal problem with releasing Japanese songs worlwide.
I once asked Hayley that very question (this was round about the time she was recording HSJS2) and she said that it was outside her control, and we would have to get the new one (HSJS2) from Japan just as we did the first one.
I understand that you can also get copies from Earthquake.

Here's my question for Hayley:
"Which of your albums so far do you think best represents you?"
Looking forward to your interview, Nicola!

Richard, it's Elliot's question.  Martin, I like your second question better. Of course everyone wants to know when her album will be out, but we'll all find out eventually. I'm far more interested in seeing her answer about the songwriting. I think it's a great question. |
