Apparently Rita has recorded a song called Ritual with Jonas Blue would love to hear this, hope it doesn't end up as one of those unreleased songs...!

Posted by: Theonix 6th May 2019, 05:26 PM

God that is a collaboration I NEVER want to hear! Her work with Rudimental and Kygo has been reductive at best, Jonas Blue is perhaps the most basic producer around at the moment :/

his most recent single is actually his the best one yet. so hopefully this is good

Posted by: danG 27th May 2019, 04:51 PM

This is confirmed to be a collab with Jonas Blue AND Tiësto! Released on the 31st.

What an odd single cover!

Dunno if I'm here for this, Jonas Blue is trash .

Posted by: Theonix 28th May 2019, 07:49 AM

Ugh what a disappointment although if Tiësto is actually the lead artist it might not be so bad, I'm really not familiar with his work

Posted by: Wall 28th May 2019, 10:24 AM

Tiesto used to be an incredible DJ now he's pure trash and chasing trends.

Rita just doesn't stop.

Posted by: 365 28th May 2019, 10:30 AM

I really hope this is good. Carry On is good, but I'd like something a little better.

Posted by: Nick F1 30th May 2019, 06:23 PM

loove this
bop

Posted by: Cucumberella 30th May 2019, 08:42 PM

oh this is not bad!

Posted by: JosephAvery 31st May 2019, 12:24 AM

Rita sounds incredible on this!! Really love the chorus in particular

Posted by: UltraME! 31st May 2019, 12:24 AM

BOP <3

Posted by: Theonix 31st May 2019, 07:46 AM

Oh this is so good! It doesn't feel tarred by Jonas Blue at all, the production is actually quite interesting but doesn't feel too dissimilar to the disco versions of Lonely Together and Anywhere from the Phoenix tour. Definitely a step up from Carry On for me!

Posted by: Jonjo 31st May 2019, 01:46 PM

This is brilliant! I wasn't expecting the pop goodness *.* I was expecting some lazy generic dance song with a lame drop!

Loving this! Wasn't really expecting anything much, but that chorus is incredible. Probably my favourite of her many features recently.

Posted by: Defaze 31st May 2019, 08:16 PM

Oh, this is rather lovely. No idea when I became a Rita stan, but I've loved everything from 'Lonely Together' onwards ('Your Song' can still rot).

I actually prefer the verses on this. Rita's delivery is great.

Posted by: Botchia 1st June 2019, 03:28 PM

This is so much better than I was expecting! What a bop!

Posted by: Juliano 2nd June 2019, 10:35 PM

This IS a bop, I wouldn't be mad if she included this on her next album!

Posted by: (Zach) 8th June 2019, 02:15 AM

Wasn't in any big rush to give this a listen but now that I have, I have to agree with everyone else here. So good!

Posted by: Bré 11th June 2019, 02:43 PM

I'm pretty convinced that when Jonas Blue is co-credited with another DJ he literally does nothing, this and 'Back & Forth' both sound absolutely nothing like anything else he's released (which is a good thing because most of his own releases are awful).

This is pretty decent I guess xx

Posted by: danG 11th June 2019, 06:23 PM

I do wonder who actually made this song though, because it doesn't sound like Tiësto('s ghost producer) or Jonas Blue.

I'm liking it though, certainly better than Jonas Blue's most recent solo songs.

Posted by: JosephAvery 15th June 2019, 05:30 PM

Posted by: Defaze 15th June 2019, 08:47 PM

This track is ridiculously underrated, I'm slightly obsessed (so ofc it's semi-flopping ).

Posted by: Theonix 16th June 2019, 07:58 PM

Ugh this is such a bop! I just switched the TV on and randomly saw her performing it on Soccer Aid - she was a bit shaky to start with but once she got going she killed it with her energy! Hopefully it has a bit of an iTunes boost and gets picked up by radio now that Carry On is fading away

Posted by: pippa 18th June 2019, 01:37 PM

I think it is a really catchy tune and i hope it can start getting more chart success.

Posted by: Theonix 18th June 2019, 05:45 PM

Moved up Hot Hits UK and already up almost 60 places after one day! Here for this outpeaking Carry On

Posted by: pippa 18th June 2019, 08:25 PM

That is a nice rise.
I like Carry on but prefer this.

Posted by: Mack. 20th June 2019, 10:51 AM

Wonderful track. Couldn’t get it out of my head today.

Posted by: Theonix 20th June 2019, 05:07 PM

Safe to say she has a new worst video Whoever styled her needs sacking!

Only down 1 place on Spotify today from its peak of #67 yesterday so hopefully she's set for a new official peak next week

Posted by: Cucumberella 20th June 2019, 09:37 PM

omg the video is TERRIBLE! i'm actually shocked. it's a complete misfire!

Posted by: JosephAvery 20th June 2019, 09:54 PM

Guessing Tiesto's budget didn't stretch that far then :')

I mean as always, Rita does the best with what she's given, and I've seen worse videos but there's really nothing to write home about.

Posted by: 365 20th June 2019, 10:17 PM

She looks good at least

Posted by: Voodoo 28th June 2019, 03:44 PM

It's her best single since Anywhere. Yes, it is THAT good. Atlantic should have donated a few quids to help fund the video though.

Sad that this is destined to flop.

Posted by: Jαsє 28th June 2019, 10:47 PM

Wtf is that video

Posted by: JosephAvery 8th July 2019, 07:52 PM

#18 on UK iTunes not sure why it's climbed so much today but I'm here for it!!

Posted by: pippa 8th July 2019, 08:04 PM

Wonderful to see this climb.
An official Top 20 placement would be great if it can get there.

Posted by: Theonix 12th July 2019, 05:21 PM

Omg this has a new peak of #41 officially! *.* top 40 next week?!

Posted by: pippa 12th July 2019, 06:45 PM

So close to making it to Top 40 status this week

Posted by: JosephAvery 12th July 2019, 07:23 PM

I am crossing EVERYTHING that it goes top 40 next week!!

Posted by: pippa 12th July 2019, 07:44 PM

Me too, this does deserve to be a big hit.

Posted by: Cqmerqn 12th July 2019, 09:01 PM

Haha flop

Posted by: pippa 19th July 2019, 03:46 PM

New Peak of Number 40 this week.
Another top 40 credit for Rita in the process.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 19th July 2019, 05:06 PM

It deserves so much better but thankful it went top 40

Posted by: Sailor Steve 19th July 2019, 05:09 PM

It's ABOUT TIME

Posted by: pippa 19th July 2019, 06:07 PM

It took a while and i thought it wouldn't get there but it has.

Posted by: gavindeejay 19th July 2019, 07:25 PM

Really hope this can climb, really enjoying it at the moment!

Posted by: pippa 19th July 2019, 07:57 PM

It is hard to predict if it will go much further.
Chart success aside, it is a great song.

Posted by: Voodoo 20th July 2019, 01:33 PM

Posted by: George.keh 20th July 2019, 02:34 PM

Top 50 on Spotify has it been before?

Posted by: Cqmerqn 20th July 2019, 02:56 PM

It’s now top 50

Posted by: Jay ☆ 20th July 2019, 03:34 PM

This definitely deserves soooo much more, but I'm glad it's finally scraped into the Top 40.

Posted by: lewistgreen 21st July 2019, 01:04 PM

I quite prefer that sped up mix Radio 1 played on Friday

Posted by: Sailor Steve 21st July 2019, 02:35 PM

I hated it oops

Up to #40 on Spotify today!!

Posted by: dobbo 21st July 2019, 03:07 PM

Very nice track, I was late to get round to hearing this but it was worth the wait!

Posted by: Mack. 22nd July 2019, 01:14 PM

Worth the wait for it to go Top 40.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 22nd July 2019, 01:54 PM

I liked this anyway, but it's growing in my affections more. The vocal melody in the chorus part before the drop is really quite nice.

Posted by: pippa 22nd July 2019, 01:58 PM

If Phoenix gets a new version released this must be included.

Posted by: Theonix 25th July 2019, 12:23 PM

Posted by: Voodoo 26th July 2019, 12:10 PM

Posted by: Nick F1 26th July 2019, 06:55 PM

up to no.28 in UK this week

Posted by: Jαsє 28th July 2019, 11:53 AM

#48 on Spotify and back up to #12 on iTunes. I really hope this can continue climbing. Such a tune!

Posted by: Jαsє 29th July 2019, 04:46 PM

Up to #11 on iTunes! Holding up so well

Posted by: pippa 31st July 2019, 01:44 PM

It is climbing gradually.

Posted by: pippa 1st August 2019, 12:36 PM

Number 26 in the midweek information released today.

Posted by: Jonjo 1st August 2019, 01:18 PM

So glad this is becoming a little bit of a hit. Such a good song

Posted by: pippa 1st August 2019, 02:14 PM

For a period i thought the song would not make it into the top 40 and it did.
Making its way to the Top 30 and hopefully Top 25 is an added bonus.

Posted by: gavindeejay 1st August 2019, 03:22 PM

I wonder how much further it can go? Will Radio 1 add it? They love Rita and Jonas Blue and normally Tiesto so don't see why they're snubbing it.

Posted by: Theonix 2nd August 2019, 07:25 AM

This has FINALLY been added to Radio 1's playlist!

Posted by: pippa 2nd August 2019, 12:26 PM

That may help its chances further of making its way into the Top 20.

Posted by: JosephAvery 2nd August 2019, 12:42 PM

It's about time!

Posted by: pippa 2nd August 2019, 12:59 PM

Better late than never

Posted by: pippa 5th August 2019, 06:07 PM

Ritual is sitting at Number 27 in the midweek information released today.

Posted by: Jordan Lee 7th August 2019, 02:10 PM

Just what does this have to do to go top 20!

I can just see it being yet another #22 peak though.

Posted by: pippa 7th August 2019, 03:13 PM

I thought it would be a safe Top 25 this week.

Posted by: pippa 19th August 2019, 03:03 PM

Top 30 once again but that helps build sales.
Should bow out with at least 250k to his credit.

Posted by: pippa 19th August 2019, 06:03 PM

Number 22 in the midweek information today.
It is holding firmly in the Top 30 region.

Posted by: pippa 20th August 2019, 07:22 PM

Number 23 in the midweek information today.
I would be so delighted if this can get a Top 25 peak this week.
