Single released by American singer Lauv back in May, is currently Top 20 in New Zealand and doing well in Australia too. This guy cowrote No Promises for Cheat Codes, All My Love for Cash Cash, and Boys for Charli XCX wub.gif I'm really liking this right now, the video is sweet too smile.gif

Quite boring tbh, seems like another of those songs that spends a while in the top 100 due to Spotify playlists but never does anything beyond that as I can't see radio getting on board.

Been a fan of this since May, it's a nice song but unfortunately it'll just carry on doing a Fresh Eyes/Please Don't Go in the sense that it'll never cross over from Spotify.

Yeah this is really good but it's a shame it won't really take off

I've liked this for a few weeks, after discovering it on Spotify (it started playing after I'd finished listening to one of my playlists). It's got a very pleasant & chilled vibe. wub.gif

There's a Cheat Codes remix of this too!

love it, one of my fav songs at the moment, wish R1 playlisted instead of the tons of useless tracks they've been adding recently

I wouldn't underestimate the crossover appeal, it's actually higher on iTunes than on Spotify in Australia now ohmy.gif

This is horrendously bland, it feels almost meticulously tailor made for Spotify :/

The remixes for this are so much better, especially Ryan Riback's!

I quite like these Ryan Riback remixes, they add something extra to the original song without changing it completely - exactly what a remix should be. Call on Me, Fresh Eyes, and now I Like Me Better. The original of this is better to me though (unlike the previous two)

When I saw the name of the artist, I thought this was just gonna be another basic pop girl but I'm glad to see it is a male artist.
I'm just checking out the song now and I quite like it smile.gif

Playlisted by Radio 1 this week! Genuinely thought this had been and gone for us :’) wonder if it can outpeak itself this time around.

Well I was wrong, but it took nearly a year for me to be proven wrong. :')

Although I still don't think that it'll be a big hit even with late radio 1 support.

Love this.

'Enemies' is also really good, I actually love his songs. I don't see it doing much due to it's Spotify exposure being over.

yeah I can't see this doing anything, but it's a great little bop, Lauv deserves some sort of hit tbh

I'd never actually heard this song until now, and I really like it. I would love for it to be a hit.
