I really like it - just a shame CB are not being associated with it though, obviously happy to give her a track but not to have her as a feature

Whoever her photographer and stylist are need to be sacked. The artwork has been horrendous.

At the end of the day it's a song for Louise's comeback album, it's not her providing vocals for a Clean Bandit single (I doubt they're ready to start a new era yet). |

Burn up my eyes and tell me lies
This is a bop for us older than 30. |

I've listened to this twice and it kind of just washes over me.

I really like it! It's very summery/breezy & the "Oh - I wanna know - what makes you feel that you're allowed to treat me so unkindly" melody is very catchy!

i so wish the track was labelled as Clean Bandit feat Louise as it could actually chart to be fair had that been the case.

I'm sad that comeback singles 2 & 3 only peaked at 100-something at iTunes. That worries me for her whole album.
Louise's comeback makes me listen to her music again. I got all albums, enjoyed many singles, but there's one song I loved through the years: "Don't Be Shy". Does anybody remember this track from her second album? |

She doesn’t seem to have a huge gay following, the GP have mostly long forgotten her music career. By the time the album arrives in October we could have had 4/5 singles released from it! |

But I think from the beginning it has always been the plan to release 4-5 singles before the album.
I just want to see some promotion from her! Some live tv performances or something! But what are the promotion opportunists for some like Louise in 2019? Appear on Loose Women, do album signings (but Will Young for example cancelled his), some Radio 2 support... |

Whoever greenlighted a whole Louise album most have a lot of faith or is just a big fan. I'm thankful to that person because it's really nice getting new Louise music. Anyway, I hope that person won't lose his / her job if Louise albums flops.

'Stretch' was a one off imo, this and 'Small Talk' are both .... not it. This gives me second hand cringe.

I'm really enjoying Louise's comeback! I'm still pleasantly surprised that she's put effort in and recorded new material, rather than phoning it in with a covers album (which would possibly have been a safer & cheaper route to take). I'd consider her 3 songs released so far to be up there with her best 90s/00s hits... just really good, straightforward pop. I'd even say that she's improved as a vocalist in comparison to her heyday!
I'm not particularly concerned about how the album will perform commercially. I'm really just here to enjoy her comeback for however long it lasts... I'm already fully prepared for this to be a one-off moment anyway! I hope there'll be an opportunity for her to perform at some point. I hope it's the case that promotion is being saved for nearer the album release. Does Strictly It Takes Two ever have performers? If so, I could see her doing that show. Hopefully This Morning and Loose Women too. How I'd rank the songs so far: 1. Stretch 2. Small Talk 3. Lead Me On The only aspect of this comeback I'm not loving is her artwork... I struggle to believe the pictures used so far are really the very best they had. That's really just a minor niggle though. |

I kind of don't understand why this is still 3 months away. According to someone who claims they spoke to Louise they are going to release 4-5 singles before the album. I assume Lead Me On is counted as single #3 (Small Talk being a "buzz" release). I think they're kind of using her and Westlife as experiments with how to handle single releases with older type of acts that doesn't do strongly in streaming.
