It’s great, much better than Bad Habits so surely another big No.1 incoming.

The chorus is like something a big pop band would have put out 20 years ago, I know he gets a lot of stick on here but as long as he keeps producing high quality, well produced, catchy pop music I will continue to enjoy it.

I like it! Even better than Bad Habits that I didn't mind at all. It' bop that would have been a cute #15 for Little Mix or Rita Ora. He's done such a great job of transitioning from MOR/Real Music into bubblegum pop but while still being seen as marketable as the former to the general public.

If Ed Sheeran track is good, it will probably not go #1 tongue.gif

Definitely going straight to No 1 but at least this time it'll be on merit rather than because it's Ed like Bad Habits.

This is really good and much more instant than ‘Bad Habits’ which took me a few listens to get into. I can see why this was originally planned as the lead single.

It's not that different to Bad Habits at all but a bit better song I'd say.

It definitely does feel like a lead single!

It makes Bad Habits sound rather empty and bland in comparison. I like that track but an 11-week No.1 it does not feel like, this sounds much bigger but probably won’t be just because Q4 is way more competitive.

That's 3/3 for me now. I never would have imagined that before this era began!

I think this is his 'Sorry' to 'Bad Habits' 'What Do You Mean'.

On first listen... I prefer Bad Habits.

Shivers is good though - maybe it'll grow on me more smile.gif

YES THIS IS MORE LIKE IT!!! His vocals are so much better on this than on 'Bad Habits' where I feel like he sounds like he's being forced to hit certain notes at times etc.. Great song. wub.gif

This is so much better than Bad Habits - agree with a lot of the comments here, it is a quality pop song.

I liked Bad Habits to begin with, but I tired with it very quickly. This is a lot more interesting.

That's probably because it doesn't go anywhere after the first chorus.

A Navos Remix already exists and will be available in the near future. Maybe that'll perk my interest haha

Is Q4 really more competitive in the singles market?

Not as instant as ‘Bad Habits’ for me but only listened once!

When Xmas songs arrive at least.

But why this isn't number 1 on iTunes?

In theory it should be with all the big artists releasing, but maybe in the last few years not as much to be fair. It’s certainly hard to envisage this stretching a run at No.1 into mid-November, but who knows.

Was literally just about to say this. Not getting the 'woah, this is more like it' that other people are getting from this...

Call me a basic bitch, but I was shocked at how much I loved Bad Habits. This is already up amongst his few brilliant tracks though (more than I like to admit, actually... It's only really his slushy ballads I despise, tbf).

Still Bad Habits > this
