Along with livening the photo up a bit, I thought I'd also take a stab at the cover... Made three versions. What do you think?  A)  B)  C)  D)  What's your favorite? I'd honestly like to know. What would you do different? The actual photo probably has much more space around it to work with, so the actual cover is probably better than my attempts.  -Taylor i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gif |

I like the second one. Nice using the same font as many of her actual covers!

And she is not wearing purple lipstick on Paradiso. I think the color used was supposed to contrast with her pink dress, and I think it looked pretty. What color did you expect, bright red? That wouldn't have looked as good with the dress. A lighter pink wouldn't have shown up as well. The color also went well with the rest of the makeup that she had on. It wasn't that I didn't like the look on her, to me it just seemed a tad flashy for the theme of the album. But what do I know lol -Rory Not about color contrast, obviously. LOL And um, movies are flashy, so there goes that theory. LOL |

I actually like the 2nd to last one best. That, and the first one are the only ones that look neat. On the 2nd one, the word Dreams is misaligned with her name, which I know is so it would show up on her hair. Well, I don't think it should go on top of her head, anyway, and also shouldn't be off-balance. Then, the last one, the title is crooked. And I don't really think the title will be spelled going down anyway. Another thing, that may work fine if that's actually the title of the album, but as far as we know, it's not. You know what, I think the only way for it to work is if they have a full shot of her, sitting on something, so that the shot is from farther away, and then there's more space around her for words. But then, her smiling face would be less prominent. Oh well, we'll hopefully see soon what it looks like. If it is this photo, we'll see how it works, and if it's not, then we'll be delighted to see another new photo! |

Jonathon has tweeted a link with a fuller write-up on the cast of Nights on Broadway. It also includes a "New Title" for the 2013 album
In recent months, Hayley has been working on a new album, entitled Hushabye, which is scheduled
for release in mid-June.

Although, that article had incorrect information about the Quake Aid concert at the Vector Arena. Whilst originally planned, it never went ahead.... I still like 'Dream a Little Dream' the best. As respectfully as I can put it, 'Lullaby' is a total dud name lol and at the moment, I'm sort of not at all into anything that sounds like lullabies etc etc... Even 'Hushabye'  |

Like us, they may be guessing, though you'd expect the new website to be right ('poor show' if it isn't). Dick Van Dyke-esque title, if it's right.
And, a promo photo does not an album cover make... can we post any further "album covers" as links please, or at least keep them small (EDIT: thanks for fixing them Taylor!) until the real one appears?

I also have to agree that the eye make up is a little more than I care for on her, Well, I suppose we should have expected something like that after she tweeted this http://instagram.com/p/Xt9Sf_r2oc # Martin D |

Oh and Simba, the album covers. I like the third one best I think.
The top one looks as if the title of the album is HDreams. The second it is hard to read the album title at all, needs to be more prominent I think. And I don't much like the staggered alignment on the bottom one.
I think I would also like a more distant shot, so that we can see more of her dress.

Just to repeat: the album title is still unconfirmed.
Hushabye does appear on the David Essex tour website but it does not appear in the official press release, I have raised a query about that. Dave EDIT - Latest: I'm getting no denials on Hushabye  so it looks like that is the correct album title, as per Nights On Broadway website. Who can find the track listing(s) and real album cover(s) first? |

This is getting really confusing now, I wish they would make an announcement soon! As for the album covers posted above I like B and C best. I'm with Libby that it looks better if the title goes horizontally its much easier to read, but I don't mind so much if it's off centre. I was thinking of the UK version of Oddessy as that one had a picture of Hayley that was shot closer than the international version and her eyes were more out to the front so maybe this one will be more like that. Also Katherine Jenkins' Believe album her face was really close up and that worked quite well as a cover so it is possible to do it I think, it just depends on the picture they choose.

Hi everyone, Just to add, I queried the statement on the Nights on Broadway website that Hayley's new album is called Hushabye and have been reliably informed that the website is correct! The website says: So, Hushabye it is, for release mid June in the UK. I'll alter thread titles etc. later tonight (for the final time I hope!) so now, come on everyone, let's find a track-listing! i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifCheers, Dave |

'Hushabye.' Hmm... Somewhat synonymous with 'Lullaby,' wouldn't you say? Not sure if I like it, but it's something that I can only really judge when I know the music and all, to see the whole picture

Yes, me too. I think I would prefer the "Dream" theme. Hushabye implies quietness. I want Hayley to make some noise! If the album is dreamy, that's no problem. But I hope it isn't soporific.
