Yeah it seems to be received very well among people more broadly - they may have missed a trick by not releasing it as a physical copy - but not sure it’ll chart with the way it’s all calculated on streams these days

Probably to hype it up for next week. It is already climbing very fast on iTunes - 14 now. If it goes top 10 and manages to maintain it throughout the whole of next week, it could be a hit.
I can see it doing very well internationally, especially in Mexico and Brazil.
Fingers crossed for a great chart position next Friday. Hope they have promo lined up for next week.

It's a good song but Gary is long past getting hit singles that's why it's released on a Wednesday as it's all about album sales. Then again the way 2020 has been going Gary Barlow and Michael Buble getting a hit single wouldn't shock me.

I love reggae but don't like reggaeton like this. A little bit strange don't see Ricky Martin in this project smile.gif

Anyway, my respect to Mr. Barlow to touch new style.

I don”t hear the reggaeton in Elita. To me, it sounds closer to salsa.

Awesome!! It is a definite grower. I really like it and in front of a live band, it’ll be great.

Wonder what the promo will be like for the album...that’s the biggest unknown - i assume strictly and bgt

I imagine Strictly is quite likely, especially with there probably being some big band songs there.

Not sure about BGT though, as there's only the final to go (the last semi has already been recorded)

Strictly would love this, i have listened to this a couple of time today and its catchy and not what you would expect at all from a Gary Barlow release.

I liked it on first listen, but it definitely grew on me the more I hear it.

Still bummed they released it on a Wednesday though. Would've liked to see it (maybe) chart on the singles.

Im not a fan of Wednesday/Thursday releases at all, acts like Gary need all the sales counted in the one week for it to chart, i do rattle on about the same thing when Kylie releases singles on Thursdays but as many other posters say acts like Gary and Kylie wont be chasing singles success the focus will be on having a successful album which is important but id still like to see him get as high on the singles chart as possible.

My thoughts exactly. It doesn't matter if they're not chasing single success but at least it's worth a shot!

My sentiments too.
Give it a shot at the least, I would have welcomed the release delayed until midnight tonight.
Albums don't get released midweek and the same should apply for singles.

It's all about whether they care about the chart, Gary has no need to now.

Other artists that don't care about the charts at all, like Fleet Foxes recently, who released their new album midweek.

I suspect it might have been on the first day when both the versions were high up, if combined.

I like the new track. A very fresh and different style but it works. I’ve preordered the album too.
