According to ATRL 'Don't Let Me Be Yours' will be released as the next single from So Good. Bit weird they're doing this when 'Symphony' is beginning to slay worldwide ohmy.gif

This was one of my least favorites on the album when I first heard it but after a few more listens I guess it's ok, really a 7/10 kind of song. Releasing this when they have Sundown sitting there though

Symphony's just a feature so I'm not surprised they're pushing on with a new single from the album tbh, So Good is best swept under the rug. Not sure this would've been my top choice but it's growing on me and it has the Ed Sheeran co-write to help get it some hype too.

what an appalling album and this as a follow up single to the last forgetful piece of nothingness only highlights that...

they should sack the team that made this mess happen and start afresh with some sparkier, brighter minds

I can see why they chose this, what with Ed Sheeran co-writing and that it's comparitively calmer than the other singles so perhaps has potential to sell the album, but it's not one of my favourites at all. I can't see it growing that much either. 'Funeral' would have been a much better choice if they wanted to tick those boxes but also have something that has some oomph about it.

Why?

Symphony needs to be pushed right now and nothing else, as it is a joint Clean Bandit/Zara single.

This isn't even the best on the album anyway, coming to flop.

Poor choice, there are a couple of other potential hits on the album but...short of Ed pushing it in a big way...I don't think this is one of them.

There's really nothing worse than a superstar act releasing a bland single just because it has more prestigious writing credentials behind it than better songs they have at their disposal.

Sundown or TG4M were her best chances of a hit. What a mess.

Funeral would've been a better choice!

It's not joint, it's a feature, It's Clean Bandit's even on her album it's credited as Clean Bandit.

I do think they should have ridden out Symphony and then probably moved onto a new single/re-release as I can't see any hits on this album that haven't been released yet.

Heinous!

I'm gonna pretend this era stopped at 'I Would Like' I think.

Like Jake, I hope for better things from her next time.

Didn't know this had been written by Ed Sheeran! ohmy.gif The only way I could see it being a hit is if she somehow managed to get him to feature on the song.

It's on both Zara's album and CB's upcoming album so it may as well be a joint release.

It makes no sense to try and be pushing two songs on Zara's album at the same time, anything they try to push will be overshadowed by 'Symphony' at this stage.

So Good and now this? Did Zara piss her label off or something?

This is alright, not too bad but if it wasn't co-written by Ed it wouldn't even get a look in as single drama.gif Ridiculous really when she has Funeral, Sundown and TG4M, but I do agree none o those are really hits either. She has so much potential so hopefully this doesn't harm her career.

They are overthinking it. First So Good to try and appeal to the US market, now this as a "it was written by Ed Sheeran" single.

Because that worked out well for Matt Cardle and the likes...

Imagine if this era had gone...

01. Lush Life
02. Never Forget You
03. Ain't My Fault
04. I Would Like
05. Funeral
06. Sundown

I think 'Sundown' would be a bad choice.

Ideally they should wait for 'Symphony' to have its chart impact and then push 'TG4M' (this one has the most streams of her album tracks by a fair amount)

It's a bit of a head scratcher that Zara/her label have chosen this and So Good for single treatment to push the album. TG4M & Funeral seem like the most obvious "hit potential" songs to me!

The first mistake for this album campaign was them opting not to do a music video for I Would Like. A shame that they evidently felt that So Good was more worthy to shoot a video for.
