Everyone's favourite BJSC banging banger has already been a hit across Europe and is now starting to take off the US - currently #22 on US iTunes! ohmy.gif

She made her US TV debut last week on Jimmy Fallon too and was FANTASTIC!



UK next pls. I am slightly surprised this has been so successful tbh

Posted by: lewistgreen 10th February 2018, 02:09 PM

omg please cross over to the UK

Posted by: Shia LeMuffQueef 10th February 2018, 04:17 PM

I'm surprised it's a hit as it's very mid-tempo

Posted by: lewistgreen 26th February 2018, 07:27 PM

Played as part of Radio 1's Best New Pop feature this morning on the Early Breakfast show so it looks like a UK impact date is imminent *.*

Queen of promo

The UK better appreciate this banging banger *.* Such a tune.

Posted by: lewistgreen 5th March 2018, 10:15 PM

Few more spot plays on Radio 1 this week but no news of an impact date yet nocheer.gif

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 7th March 2018, 04:13 PM

Really enjoy this, hopefully it grows into the chart.

Posted by: lewistgreen 18th March 2018, 12:52 PM

Video has now been added on rotation to MTV Rocks!

Posted by: Bjork 18th March 2018, 01:46 PM

Posted by: 5 Silas Frøkner 18th March 2018, 02:16 PM

Yaaas! It really deserves to go big, it's such a fantastic track

Posted by: Tombo 21st March 2018, 02:51 AM

Omg, this is such a good song! I really like it!

Posted by: lewistgreen 24th March 2018, 03:03 PM

Posted by: Botchia 24th March 2018, 06:43 PM

They've been playing it as a future chart hit on the MTV countdowns of the top 40 this week *.*

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 25th March 2018, 11:44 AM

I like this a lot! Would like to see it be a hit.

Posted by: lewistgreen 28th March 2018, 05:24 PM

B List on Radio 2 this week! *.*

Posted by: cqmisa 3rd April 2018, 03:01 PM

Why isn’t this a hit

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 3rd April 2018, 04:30 PM

Greg James' tune of the week!

Posted by: Steve201 3rd April 2018, 08:21 PM

This sounds like a no1 hit to me!

Posted by: danG 4th April 2018, 02:00 PM

finally breaks the US chart at #100 this week! thanks to a car commercial apparently. probably a future big hit here too.

Posted by: Bjork 4th April 2018, 02:13 PM

Posted by: cqmisa 4th April 2018, 02:19 PM

Look above...

Posted by: lewistgreen 4th April 2018, 08:56 PM

Top 40 on UK iTunes as well now! So glad this is doing something

Posted by: Juan Carlos 🌴 5th April 2018, 11:11 PM

A new song of her called "Lash Out" is available now. It's her next US single and I assume it will be WW as well.

Posted by: Tombo 6th April 2018, 05:42 AM

I like the new song biggrin.gif

Posted by: gavindeejay 6th April 2018, 06:38 AM

Just took a listen to this for the first time, it's really good. Great to see it taking off!

Posted by: Botchia 6th April 2018, 08:09 AM

Lash Out is such a banger! It’s been so long for new Alice too 😭😭

Posted by: Cqmerqn 6th April 2018, 08:55 PM

Absolutely love Lash Out! So fresh.

Posted by: lewistgreen 13th April 2018, 06:24 AM

Great stuff! Hopefully increasing airplay can help it become a minor hit at least.

Posted by: Midge 13th April 2018, 09:56 AM

This is a grower. Quite a cool little song.

I think it's a future top 5, ala Portugal. The Man.

Decent music in the top 10?? I'm all for it.

Posted by: gavindeejay 13th April 2018, 04:58 PM

Top 10 would be a great result for this! Make it happen!

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 13th April 2018, 05:06 PM

98 in the charts this week!

Posted by: Dobbo 13th April 2018, 05:23 PM

Seeing this song only take off now is realllly strange.

Posted by: Bjork 13th April 2018, 05:35 PM

totally get KT Tunstall vibes from her

Posted by: Bartier Cqmerqn 13th April 2018, 05:40 PM

It's a start yahoo.gif

Posted by: Tedward 2nd May 2018, 03:58 PM

Really can't see why people like this one. It's nice to have some alternative stuff do well (I loved Feel It Still) but this is something I can imagine myself completely forgetting about in a year or so. Considering FIS didn't go to #1 I don't think this will manage it, but will probably be in the Top 10 soon. Only thing that's holding it back at the moment is that it's not on any Spotify playlists.

Posted by: pippa 7th June 2018, 06:18 PM

It took them long enough to do it.
Will this ever make the top 40.

Posted by: Dobbo 7th June 2018, 07:35 PM

Can't ever write off any song after what Feel It Still managed.

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 12th June 2018, 02:53 PM

5SOS covered this in the Live Lounge today, hopefully it can get it a bit more recognition.

The difference is though, Feel It Still is actually good

No Roots isn't bad, I just find it a bit dull to be honest. It would be great to have more indie stuff in the charts, but No Roots was something I knew would flop, even with radio and some Spotify support. Lash Out is much better though

For someone who doesn’t like it, you’re awfully obsessed by it... it’s all I’ve seen you post about recently laugh.gif

Fair one laugh.gif I think most on here like it so just wanting to make it clear that I don't!
