BuzzJack Music Forum _ Pop _ Lauv - I Like Me Better
Posted by: Dexton 2nd September 2017, 11:30 AM
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 
I'm really liking this right now, the video is sweet too

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.
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

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

The remixes for this are so much better, especially Ryan Riback's!
Posted by: Dexton 3rd September 2017, 01:34 PM
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)

This is only now just taking off in the US :’)
New peak of 82 over there :’)

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

Playlisted by Radio 1 this week! Genuinely thought this had been and gone for us :’) wonder if it can outpeak itself this time around.
Posted by: danG 11th August 2018, 11:59 AM
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.
Posted by: BridgeCow 11th August 2018, 12:30 PM
yeah I can't see this doing anything, but it's a great little bop, Lauv deserves some sort of hit tbh
Posted by: Bjork 11th August 2018, 03:12 PM
If the label managed to get R1 support
Im sure they’re also gonna re-push it on spotify too
Posted by: WhoOdyssey 11th August 2018, 03:16 PM
I'd never actually heard this song until now, and I really like it. I would love for it to be a hit.
Posted by: Bjork 12th August 2018, 01:25 PM
hadn't heard the track in like 1 year
heard it now, almost forgot how great the song is
hope it does well finally
