James Bay returns this week with a new single featuring Julia Michaels, should be interesting!

Please be like Pink Lemonade!

(not sure if it should be here or indie/rock/alternative)

OOOH interesting! I hope it's a step up in quality after Electric Light sad.gif

I'd be surprised if it's anything like Pink Lemonade if Julia's on it (thank goodness, I never clicked with that one)

Pink Lemonade was the only song from the album I really liked to be honest, Just for Tonight was alright.

Pink Lemonade was one of my tracks of 2018, excellent song. Looking forward to more.

Yeah I loved Pink Lemonade!

Looking forward to this... although most of what I've heard of Julia Michaels is dreary

I really hope this can get James back in the charts/back on the radio - the last era was not good for him; even though the quality of the music was great!

Both James Bay and Julia Michaels really need a hit, so hopefully this does well for them!

Is it just me or does the guitar on this sound like Ellie Goulding’s Close to Me

It's a pretty standard guitar riff, Close to Me was accused of ripping off Pixies' Where is My Mind a few months ago:

Given the success of "Paradise" by George Ezra, I really thought "Pink Lemonade" had what it takes to become a hit, with the right push. Alas it wasn’t meant to be. Really liked the album in the end after not being sure at first.

This is sounding really good - could definitely be a hit with the right promotion!

sounds promising

I was always amazed his label green-lighted album 2, I would have sent him back to write better songs

Oh this is absolutely superb wub.gif Julia's contribution (vocally) is minimal but she harmonises fantastically with James. Can see myself being quite addicted to this heart.gif
