The Script are back. After taking a pandemic induced break, the Irish trio is back with a new single “I Want It All”, a greatest hits album “Tales From The Script” and are set to tour the UK and Europe in 2022.
Celebrating a journey that has included five UK #1 albums, six billion streams, and over two million ticket sales, the band will release the career-spanning greatest hits album ‘Tales From The Script’ on October 1st.
‘Tales From The Script’ compiles all of the biggest hits and fan favourites from their six albums so far. It highlights the classic cuts from the trio’s catalogue, taking in the likes of the #1 smash ‘Hall of Fame’ (featuring will.i.am) and the Top 10 hits ‘The Man Who Can’t Be Moved’, ‘For The First Time’ and ‘Superheroes’. It also includes landmark moments and staples of their live show including ‘Breakeven’, their debut single ‘We Cry’ and ‘Rain’.

The collection honours everything that the trio – Danny O’Donoghue, Glen Power and Mark Sheehan – have achieved together since forming fourteen years ago.
“The ‘Tales From The Script’ album is a springboard to our next chapter, but it’s also our story so far,” says Danny.“We’re so excited to be taking it on the road. I know I’m gonna lose it on stage, night after night.”
Glen adds, “We’re taking all the best songs and playing them all together in one place. It will turn it into a celebration that we’ve survived and we’ve all got through to this moment together.”
It’s completed by the brand new song ‘I Want It All’, which Mark says, “delivers all the ingredients everyone knows and loves”, and the immensely popular ‘Acoustic Sessions’ version of ‘Never Seen Anything “Quite Like You”’.
