Welcome to the Paloma Faith singles rate!

Rules are the same as always, rate each song between 0 and 10. You may rate in fractions (.5) but please don't rate any songs -0.5 or 10.5. You may give one 11 to your absolute favourite Paloma song and one -1 to your least favourite.

Please try to rate all songs - if you haven't heard any of them, I have provided a link to a Spotify Playlist below.

"Stone Cold Sober"
"New York" (with or without Ghostface Killah)
"Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful?"
"Upside Down"
"Smoke & Mirrors"
"Picking Up the Pieces"
"30 Minute Love Affair"
"Never Tear Us Apart"
"Just Be"
"Black & Blue"
"Can't Rely on You"
"Only Love Can Hurt Like This"
"Trouble with My Baby"
"Changing" (with Sigma)

Oh good spot! It was definitely playlisted by Radio 2 at the time, but not sure if it was ever properly released.

I'm quite sure it was released, and it's listed as such on Wikipedia's A Perfect Contradiction article but not on her discography page! Strange.

Good shout! If the general consensus is yes then I'll add it in!

Plus it would give us a perfect round number of 20 tongue.gif

10 Beauty Remains
10 Crybaby
11 Guilty
06 'Til I'm Done

I'm coming across as such a loon with these scores but shes got a good discography. I definitely think album two is my least favourite in terms of singles as the rest are brilliant. Guilty, Crybaby, Beauty Remains, Leave While I'm Not Looking and New York all deserved my 11 but I've gone with Guilty as I'm hooked! wub.gif

I've added "Leave While I'm Not Looking" to the opening post - please could everyone edit their scores to include it? I will update the Spotify playlist later.

'30 Minute Love Affair' is her absolute best, and in my mind one of the most underrated songs of the decade. Some of the scores I'm seeing for it are hurting me.
