Twelve Months, Eleven Days is the second solo album released by British singer-songwriter Gary Barlow. The album was released by BMG and RCA Records on October 11, 1999.
[edit] Album information
Following the success of Barlow's debut album Open Road, expectations were high for his second solo album. However, when the album's lead single, "Stronger", a dance-ballad, was released on July 5, 1999, many fans were unsure of Barlow's change in direction, [2] and the single only peaked at #16 on the UK Singles Chart. At the time, the British press had been ridiculing Barlow for not providing the media the headlines that they craved about his private life, and that his ex-bandmate, Robbie Williams, had regularly been in the papers with his erratic behaviour and party lifestyle. In an attempt to create a hype for the album, Barlow released "For All That You Want" as the album's second single, which entered and peaked at #24 on the UK Singles Chart. When the album was released on October 11, it debuted at #35 on the UK Albums Chart, and after one week, fell out of the Top 100. This was believed to be down to poor promotion and little airplay, and the fact that he had been targeted by the press and Robbie Williams. "Lie to Me" was intended to be released as the album's third single, however, after music differences and arguments between Barlow and RCA over their involvement in his long term career the single was cancelled.
