I've replaced Love Ballad with the original EP version on my playlist but everything else is still there. Not On Drugs is definitely the weak link but I do quite enjoy Talking Body. Timebomb, Thousands Miles and Moments are the big three for me.

Bought this album a little over 2 weeks ago, and after letting it thoroughly digest, I must say this album is f***ing amazing!

I have never really connected to an album so much in my entire life. It fits the last two years of my life, perfectly. Extremely therapeutic to me in many different ways. Going through a terrible breakup with my first love, and letting the end of that relationship turn me into a self-destructing alcoholic. Her voice reminds me of a stronger and more soothing version of Miley's vocals.

Probably my favorite album since "Blackout". ohmy.gif

I am absolutely loving this album too, took a while but with Talking Body being the new single I'm loving that and have been going back to it a lot. Habits still can't be touched (one of the best songs I've ever heard) but Thousand Miles, Timebomb, Talking Body, Not On Drugs and Love Ballad are my other faves.

Her voice on Thousand Miles is SO Selena Gomez, except as much as I adore Selena Tove has a more richer/stronger voice and emotes more.

Liam, I can totally hear the Selena comparison in 'Thousand Miles', except Tove's voice is exceptionally more capable.

Why hasn't 'Crave' been released???! That is such an obvious single choice. "Love Ballad", "Timebomb", "Thousand Miles" and "Run On Love" would be easy hits for her. "My Gun" as well with some promo performances!

Probably the best pop album I heard all of last year (no, definitely).

Saying that there aren't many incredible standout tracks alone (other than Habits), but the overall standard in general is exceptional.

I've been enjoying Like Em Young recently.

And you think that will change between now and May? I am hoping this is her having a vision of how it will play out before then, and actually pushing a single here properly. Preferably 'Timebomb' or 'Talking Body' but at this stage, anything will do.

So what are "Habits" and "Heroes"?

I hope she scraps Talking Body and releases Timebomb in the UK instead!

'Talking Body' has that simple/accessible quality, I think it could easily be a hit if it got pushed (and received some support)!

It's got a pretty good start on pop radio in the US. It's up to #28, and it's only running off the success of 'Habits'. She needs to promote it here! The window is open for her to smash here and I feel like her team is just paying it dust.

And YES to 'Run On Love' being released. Probably the most commercial thing on the album after Habits, along with 'Thousand Miles'. I also think US radio would take quite nicely to 'My Gun'.

FINALLY!

I think they're timing that so that by the time it's due for release 'Talking Body' will have made enough headway (hopefully) in the US to set it up here.

'Talking Body' up to #65 on US iTunes! Was hovering in the nineties for a while. Hopefully it will continue to rise!

Funny... when I first listened to the album, I was hoping "Timebomb" would follow "Talking Body" in a singles lineup.

'Thousand Miles' is #1467 on iTunes for some reason

Album pre-order currently #515, I hope the playlisting of 'Talking Body' propels the album pre-order in coming weeks
