Twenty-three years to the week since its release as the first single from Manic Street Preachers’ ‘Everything Must Go’, ‘A Design For Life’ remains every bit as potent as it did then.

Released in January 2000, Manic Street Preachers’ non-album single ‘The Masses Against The Classes’ peaked at number one on the UK singles chart.

‘This Is My Truth Tell Me Yours’ 20 Year Collectors’ Edition is out now on 3CD bookset – featuring the remastered album, a disc of demos and rehearsals and a disc featuring all the b-sides and remixes – and 2LP, featuring the remastered album.

Once again the incredible songbook of the great Roy Orbison is being given new life by The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, ‘Unchained Melodies…’ is out now.

This is a proper floor flller and no mistake.

“His songs are the yearnings of the heart.”

We asked for your stories of how the music of Roy Orbison has touched your life, how the Big O soundtracked the good times and the bad.

Here are your stories. Here’s why you love him…

He’s the singer/songwriter’s singer/songwriter, a Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Famer, founding member of the Travelling Wilburys, ‘The Big O’, America’s Maestro.

He is Roy Orbison and we want to know why you love him.

The legendary Roy Orbison has joined forces with the world-famous Royal Philharmonic to create brand new orchestral interpretations of some of the late genius’ greatest hits and most enduring rock ‘n’ roll classics.

Joining forces with The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, the late Roy Orbison releases ‘A Love So Beautiful’, a re-scored collection of classics from his inimitable songbook.  We couldn’t be prouder to name America’s Maestro our Artist of the Month.

We’re thrilled to announce that in April 2018, ‘The Hologram UK Tour’ will see a holographic Roy Orbison perform live on stage with the Royal Philharmonic throughout the UK.

Still, for many, the definitive signature tune from the Manic Street Preachers early period.

We’re thrilled to announce a very special collaboration – the soulful voice of rock ‘n’ roll backed by the world’s most preeminent orchestra.

‘Send Away The Tigers’ 10 Year Collectors’ Edition, a very special collection marking the tenth anniversary of the Manic Street Preachers eighth studio album, is out now.

“Thank Christ they exist.”
As the Manics’ tenure as our Artist of the Month come to a close, we present just a few of the comments from fans whose lives they’ve touched.
