Album Description
Available in:
Right Place Right Time is the third studio album by English singer-songwriter Olly Murs, first released in the United Kingdom on 23 November 2012 by Epic Records. It became Murs's second UK number one album, with sales of 127,000 copies in its first week sale, making it the fastest selling album of 2012 by a male solo artist in the UK charts.
The lead single from the album, "Troublemaker", which features vocals from American rapper Flo Rida, was released a week prior to the album on 18 November 2012 and debuted at number one on the UK Singles Chart. Both single and album spent two weeks at the summit, the longest Murs has ever stayed there. It marked the first time Murs had ever topped the singles and albums chart at the same time. The second single released from the album was "Army of Two", which has peaked at number 12 in the UK, and the third, "Dear Darlin'", became Murs' first UK top 10 hit (aside from his number ones) since "Thinking of Me" in 2010, peaking at number 9.
The album received mostly mixed-to-positive reviews from critics, most of whom called it catchy but predictable and said that the songs were nothing memorable. The album was also criticised for sounding similar to Murs's previous album In Case You Didn't Know (2011).

User Album Review
Wherever he goes, whatever he does, Olly Murs will always be the man who finished second to Joe McElderry in X Factor 2009. However, whoever wins the short-term reality TV battle is not guaranteed to win the pop war.
And so, as McElderry drifts gently off into oblivion like a disconsolate Furby, Essex boy Murs sold-out his arena tour of 2012. His similarly sized 2013 trek will bear identical fruit.
Albums wise, he’s now on number three and he’s progressing more speedily than even his hastily convened fanbase might have predicted. How many decisions he makes for himself remains an unknown, as does how hard he works for his songwriting credits (11 from 12 songs here), but it’s all coming together.
For all its battalions of writers and producers, Right Place Right Time is a surprisingly coherent affair. Taking its cue from latter-day Take That and underpinned by military drumming, Army of Two is a pop thumper of the highest order. With a scarf-waving chorus that peak-period Bon Jovi would have sold their souls to have written, Loud & Clear runs it close in the kitchen sink productions stakes.
Flo Rida offers a brief but engaging cameo on Troublemaker, and there’s a super-sweet innocence to the impossibly happy (and chaste) first date tale “with the girl I might love” that is What a Buzz.
Elsewhere, Head to Toe is slightly more adult in content, and Murs offers a certain amount of gravitas on the dramatic, tubular-bells-assisted Dear Darlin’.
There is filler, and Hey You Beautiful could be an anthem for wolf-whistling builders the world over. But Murs hurls himself into these songs with a sure-footed touch that belies his reality show background.
Right now, the knowingly titled, impossibly bouncy and genuinely likeable Right Place Right Time is the best Olly Murs can do – but, if he keeps growing, there may be better to come.
With everything going his way, this is probably exactly how he thought being a pop star would turn out. Only the truly flint-hearted could not wish him well.
