Also The Weeknd's 'Save Your Tears' should have been pushed instead of 'In Your Eyes' and I'm pretty confident it would have been a bigger hit, I don't know why it's been so ignored by him, not even getting a music video in an era where he's made videos for a whole bunch of much less obvious tracks.


Is there a chance he is holding back pushing and promoting SYT? It seems too obvious to release it at some point. BL, IYE, AH and SYT are without a doubt the big songs from the album.

Save Your Tears is getting a MV tomorrow if I’ve inferred correctly from Abel’s latest social media post.

Great news! I hope it does well for him in the charts although judging by the underperformances of IYE and AH I won't hold my breath. sad.gif

it's up to the label, they haven't pushed anything on Spotify playlists since BL

the lack of love for Raye is worrisome, it's like no one cares for her solo material even some of her solo singles were track #1 on NMF but missed the top 200 :/ same for Ella Henderson or Becky Hill...

Becky looked like she was on the edge of breaking through after the success of BOWY... she's been bubbling under all these years - at least she can maintain a decent level of success even if it isn't smash territory.

Raye being ignored is just unacceptable. She's grown a lot since the days of 'Decline' and 'Cigarette' but it's like her ship has sailed as far as her solo material is concerned. sad.gif She's a great songwriter though so I think there will always be a chance for her to find that elusive solo hit.

I thought this would do a lot better than it did! Although I'm not sure it's a huge loss that it didn't...

true about Sia's Lets Love, easily the flop that most sounded like a hit on 1st listen this year

Lol the timing of my post followed by 'Save Your Tears' finally getting a music video one day later laugh.gif

I really hope there's a chance it can still be a hit now then but I won't hold my breath either, it'll be harder for it to break through now than if it had been the song getting the big push fresh off the album release like 'In Your Eyes'.
