One Day I'm Going to Soar is a 2012 album by Dexys, the band formerly known as Dexys Midnight Runners. It was the band's fourth studio album, but its first in 27 years. The album features, alongside Dexys' lead singer (and leader) Kevin Rowland, 1980s Dexys members Big "Jim" Paterson, Pete Williams and Mick Talbot, new recruits Neil Hubbard, Tim Cansfield and Lucy Morgan, and guest vocalist Madeleine Hyland, who duets with Rowland on several songs.

The latter saw him briefly flirt with transvestism on the highly under-rated 'My Beauty' album. One Day I'm Going to Soar is an autobiographical narrative that centres around romantic dysfunction and social alienation. A concept album describing it's narrator's self-defeating, untrustworthy self. It's also as good a soul album as you'll hear this year. Opening track 'Now' starts with as a ballad but ends an upbeat funky stomp, full of the the Irish folk influence which is found throughout this record. There's plenty here for both new and long time Dexys fans, although the biggest crime is that some will merely dismiss this as just another comeback album from yet more rock has-beens with nothing better to do. On reflection, they're the very people who don't deserve such a record. Rispondi Avvertimi 1 Helpful.

In the 27 years since Dexy's Midnight Runners' last studio album, frontman Kevin Rowland has become more renowned for his financial problems, drug addiction, and of course, his bizarre drag makeover on 1999's career-suicide My Beauty than the wondrous blend of blue-eyed soul, post-punk, and folk-pop that he conquered the charts with in the early '80s. Attack!" while elsewhere, there are solid forays into '70s string-soaked disco ("I'm Always Going to Love You"), lounge bar jazz-soul ("Me"), and best of all, seductive Al Green-esque funk ("She Got a Wiggle").

Me. She Got a Wiggle. You. I'm Thinking of You. I'm Always Going to Love You. Incapable of Love. this site: One Day I'm Going to Soar.

You might even cry. One Day I’m Going To Soar is an album about manhood in all its predatory, childish glory. It’s also, of course, an album about Kevin Rowland and his enduring anti-love affair with an amorphous beast called Dexys Midnight Runners, now Dexys for short, who may always feature completely different members, but without whom he can’t make good records, as 1988’s bland The Wanderer and 1999’s bizarre covers album My Beauty readily attest

Could the return of Dexys - no longer Midnight Runners - possibly be a good thing? It’s the same, but it’s not the same, says Kevin Rowland of Dexys’ fourth album, and he’s right. You are currently logged out.

The first two minutes of the first track of the album was uploaded to YouTube on February 8th, 2012. Speaking on the 6music show, Kevin Rowland explained the 27-year gap between albums "I wanted to have material that I felt confident enough about. I’ve got high standards, and that’s a blessing and a curse A single, "She Got a Wiggle", preceded the album, being released on 28 May 2012.

Dexys Midnight Runners. Kevin Rowland hasn't written mere songs for his Dexys comeback; rather a West End musical. To call it a concept album underestimates its high-camp, red-velvet theatricality.

Review from The Sound Project - 10/06/13It's been 27 years since Dexy's Midnight Runners last album, 'Don't Stand Me Down', hit the shelves. In that time the enigmatic frontman Kevin Rowland has spent years in social isolation, endured an addiction to cocaine and launched a less than successful solo career. The latter saw him briefly flirt with transvestism on the highly under-rated 'My Beauty' album.One Day I'm Going to Soar is an autobiographical narrative that centres around romantic dysfunction and social alienation. A concept album describing it's narrator's self-defeating, untrustworthy self. It's also as good a soul album as you'll hear this year.Opening track 'Now' starts with as a ballad but ends an upbeat funky stomp, full of the the Irish folk influence which is found throughout this record. The string laden sound number 'Lost' centres on the singer's self over-analysis of the past, declaring "I am so lost" in one of Rowland's best vocals on the album.'Me' sounds like it was lifted straight out of a smoky piano bar, a tale of believing everyone is against you and the paranoia it creates. 'She Got a Wiggle', released as a single at the end of May, is a sexy number following the story of lust almost to the point of obsession. The lust boils over into 'You' and by the time we get to 'Thinking About You' it's almost at infatuation. By the time we reach 'I'm Always Going To Love You', a duet with Madeleine Hyland, Kevin's finally got his girl. However, as the title of the following track 'Incapable of Love' indicates things haven't gone quite to plan. The former breaks off for a mid-song dialogue between the Rowland and Hyland going through the motions of falling in and out of love.'Nowhere is Home for Me' is a reflection on thoughts of roots and subsequent lack of national identity. It's a song that finds Rowland pondering his almost nomadic existence and that there's more to life than cheap identity: 'take your Irish stereotype and shove it up your arse'.Kevin Rowland in drag for 1999's My BeautyThe Northern Soul of 'Free', is one of the most positive moments of the record, a declaration of new found independence. The album really does save it's best moment for the glorious finale 'It's Alright John Joe', a piano-led genuinely moving monologue. Rowland talks about how he music uses music to mask the real him: "I don’t show much of myself in life, but in my music I tend to put it all in – it’s like I’ve got a need to get it all out of me". That's not to say that he's completely given up on love, "I still believe in love, I just don’t know what it is".'One Day I'm Going to Soar' is an absolute gem of an album. There's plenty here for both new and long time Dexys fans, although the biggest crime is that some will merely dismiss this as just another comeback album from yet more rock has-beens with nothing better to do. On reflection, they're the very people who don't deserve such a record.
