Ella is ending up on quite an odd position.
Quite a lot of dance music success (although she isn’t ‘cool’), but naturally drawn, gifted re melancholic ballads and Soul, RnB. Her best chance of longevity remains I think following an Adele 2 type approach. But for that she needs very strong songs. And she probably has to realise her own songwriting isn’t good enough on its own. A tough self realisation. |

She did write the Glorious EP (which is her ‘real’ music) and it wasn’t great... But what would be great would be to establish a longer term close relationship with another writer. |

I think an acoustic version of this would be quite good.
Hopefully we get one. |

I think the Adele approach is good, pair up with other top songwriters to write songs, it does work

Pairing with good strong song writers would be of huge benefit to get her career to a new level.

QUOTE(ManicKangaroo @ Jul 2 2020, 11:16 PM) out today Just checked Apple Music, thanks. I like it, it’s just not what I was hoping for. I think this would work well as a piano ballad, like Yours or Missed. Still move though. |

Def would be better as piano but this version plus radio play may help her into the top 40 next friday.

Added to Radio 1 B list!
(Spotify is still a major problem with this going top 40). Ps. That isn’t really ‘acoustic’ is it!? It’s a pleasant enough stripped down version, but has synth on it. Guess we’ll get a remix soon as well.. This post has been edited by Marty: Jul 3 2020, 08:39 AM |

Back up to 55 in todays mids so a 5th week top 75 looks safe

Top 40 looks unlikely at any point.

I think she should be happy enough with the performance of this.
It’s has decent radio support and been in the iTunes top 20 for approaching 3 weeks. Just missing Spotify Hot Hits to make it into the top 40. Her next move, when and what, is an interesting one. She probably needs a 6 to 8 week pause then release her EP with another strong single. To me it needs to be an upbeat pop song, not dance or a ballad.... |

at the end of the day it's the label's fault this is under-performing
they send a big check to Apple Music to have the song as track #1 on their playlist but they do nothing for Spotify... that's a useless tactic... |
