"Genesis" is still great to date, as well as "Room For 2". I fell in love with the acoustic version of the former when she performed it at the See In Blue documentary and I was looking forward to the studio version. "Lost In Your Light" is good, but I agree that it wasn't the best choice to launch the album.

13. Begging - 7.42
10.0 ~ botchia
5.0 ~ Mike Sugafan






One of the highlights tracks from the album, which could have been properly pushed as a single.

12. Blow Your Mind (Mwah) - 7.47
10.0 ~ JosephAvery, Wall, Klaus, Jack
-1.0 ~ Jade






This was the fifth overall song to be out prior the release of the album and it was also her first US single replacing "Hotter Than Hell" to coincide with its WW release in August of 2016. I like the track, although it's not one of my favourites from her.

Room for 2 higher than Genesis and Garden is homophobia!

It's time to reveal the Top 10.

10. Bad Together - 7.94
11.0 ~ Mike Sugafan
6.0 ~ Chapman, Tawdry Hepburn






"Bad Together" is one of the few songs from her which was performed live before the release of the album, hence the reason why it was meant to be included in the standard edition of the album if there weren't any pushbacks. This is also one of my favourites from her.

8. Scared To Be Lonely - 8.06 (tie)
11.0 ~ Wall
-1.0 ~ Tawdry Hepburn






8. Kiss And Make Up - 8.06 (tie)
11.0 ~ JosephAvery
5.0 ~ Mike Sugafan






This is the last tie and both of them are collaborations. "Scared To Be Lonely" is a song with Martin Garrix, while "Kiss And Make Up" is a track with BLACKPINK. The former was released back in early 2017 and both of them are included in the complete edition of the album. It also should be noted that the latter (in its original form) was meant to be included in the standard edition of the album after it was teased in the music video of "Blow Your Mind (Mwah)", but it wasn't because there were new recordings.

'Bad Together' is probably my favourite non-single from her, I find it quite underrated!

7. Hotter Than Hell - 8.67
11.0 ~ Jack
5.0 ~ Tawdry Hepburn






"Hotter Than Hell" was the fourth release from her self-titled debut album, peaking at #15 in the UK, becoming her first Top 20 there and her highest peaking song at that time. The track was also meant to be pushed as the lead single in the US after she promoted the song in The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in early August of 2016, making her US television debut, but this was scrapped in favour of "Blow Your Mind (Mwah)", which was came out later that month.

Anyway, I still like this track, as well as tropical vibe that it has.

I always found that song really quite mediocre and generic.

6. IDGAF - 8.81
11.0 ~ 365, botchia
4.0 ~ Jade






"IDGAF" was released as the last single from her self-titled debut album early last year, reaching at #3 in the UK. I really like the music video, although the song isn't one of my favourites from her.

Hotter than Hell is actually incredible, I know it's not her debut single but it really is such a good introduction to Dua as an artist, it's a shame that it's kind of forgotten amongst her bigger hits now

Both fab!

I'd have expected both to be higher, I'm struggling to think what has placed above these aside from a couple, without looking at a list.

Songs like 'One Kiss' and 'New Rules' have had their times as my favourite from Dua but 'Be the One' always comes back and I'd probably rank it as my top fave again.
