Posted by: BigMixer 30th March 2017, 06:21 PM



this better be for Power!!

Posted by: Juliano 30th March 2017, 06:24 PM

Okay definitely Power, this one is going to make a statement!

Posted by: Jonjo 30th March 2017, 06:29 PM

Hopefully 'Power'.

But it could just as easily be 'You Gotta Not'!

Dover is only up the road, I'll jump off a cliff.

Posted by: Electro Paradise 30th March 2017, 06:57 PM

Please be power.

SOTME, Touch, NMSS & Power would make the most amazing singles run.

Posted by: TMD_24 30th March 2017, 07:10 PM

Moving on quickly then? Hopefully they give NMSS a few more weeks before moving on.

Posted by: lewistgreen 30th March 2017, 07:10 PM

I so want it to be You Gotta Not but Power would be a great choice too

No. We still won't get the announcement weeks.

Echoing the calls for 'Power'!

Posted by: Jonjo 30th March 2017, 07:20 PM

This won't be for a while yet. They'll probs shoot majority of it whilst they're still in the US, just so they have the locations, instead of going back over and filming. Then they'll probably end up doing some reshoots or whatever in the UK.

I imagine Single 4 will be premiered and performed on Britain's Got Talent? When do those live shows start? June?

Posted by: Defaze 31st March 2017, 12:15 AM

I can't see it being 'You Gotta Not' -- they seem quite tuned in with what the fans want this era e.g. releasing NMSS over 'Oops', which looked almost certain for the single treatment. I fully expect it to be 'Power'. The girls themselves seem really fond of it.

SOTME > Touch > NMSS > Power tho. What a singles campaign (and not a ballad in sight!). I actually hope there isn't a 5th single, because nothing else comes close to the quality of those four.

Posted by: MrLoverboy 31st March 2017, 12:16 AM

We just got a video from their new singles which was shot MONTHS ago and yall think this will premiere quickly? lol
I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't properly for a music video, I don't know.

Totally agree. The holy quadrinity.

YES MUST BE FOR POWER YES YES YES YES perfect singles run and looks like it'll be a great video.

Time to change the title of this thread to Power, since we received multiple confirmations now :

LM's moms will be in the video :

Are they going to re-release Glory Days? We're literally only 5 months in and they're already filming their 4th single.

Posted by: Jonjo 2nd April 2017, 12:57 PM

They're capitalising whilst they're still in the US. We won't be seeing official confirmation until about mid-May I imagine, with a video sometime in June to coincide with their Summer tour/BGT (I assume - well we said this last year...)

Probably!

I don't think we'll get an announcement for this for ages though, don't forget - it's just a very 'in advance' shoot. They had access to Warner Bros studios when in L.A, so wanted to take advantage. I'd say they'll kick off this May, with a BGT performance at the end of May. Then that's perfect timing for a single for the re-release in September.

Posted by: Matt1989 5th April 2017, 10:38 AM

Wouldn't surprise me if they re-release Glory Days with the MGK version of NMSS added. If as seems likely it is Power that they have chosen as the 4th single then this is by far their best singles run to date

And the Touch remix or an acoustic SOTME.

FLAWLESS ERA

This song has always been incredible, so glad they're taking a chance on it. <3

Posted by: Andrew♀ 9th April 2017, 06:22 PM

Ok I actually hated this when I first heard it but now it's MAJORLY hit me *.* I don't know if it'll be a big hit but it's the 4th single from an already huge album so it doesn't really matter. Loving the LGBT themes too <3

Posted by: Tinasha 9th April 2017, 06:43 PM

Heard it in a club last night. So much fun.

Posted by: mr_pmt 10th April 2017, 06:50 AM

Are we absolutely certain this is the 4th single?

I'm delighted if so.

Yeah. There were a couple of videos posted of the video shoot with this being played in the background!

Rumoured to have a big LGBTQ message!

Posted by: Tinasha 10th April 2017, 12:15 PM

Yeah, they used Warner Brothers studios to film the Power video, so I don't see why they'd spend all the money on a promo video.

I am too, but I hope they wait till the end of May at least. Thankfully it'll be starting from a much stronger position than NMSS, with both it and 'Touch' dying down now. Here's hoping it catches on with the public a little better -- it's certainly more memorable. laugh.gif

Posted by: DiamondHeart 5th May 2017, 08:01 PM

Think NMSS should be allowed to die down first and at least get to 300k sales and then be performed on one of the semi-finals or final of BGT, with the video released around the same time for maximum chances of reaching the top 10.

Posted by: robbiesglory 8th May 2017, 03:45 PM

Apparently there is a casting call for a music video featuring Stormzy. Although not sure if it is for Power.

Posted by: Juliano 9th May 2017, 01:01 AM

I'm pretty sure the Power video has already been shot.

Posted by: Joe. 9th May 2017, 07:39 AM

They've been added to the Capital Summertime Ball line up, which means radio support for 'Power' will be a lot more instant than it was for NMSS.

BGT semi-finals are on:
29th (Girls in Swiz)
30th (Italy)
31st (Germany)
1st (N/A)
2nd (Belgium)
--finals--
3rd &/or 4th (Girls in Amsterdam on the 3rd)

A BGT performance is looking very unlikely, unless they can pre-record something, but I don't know when they'd have time for rehearsal.

Because as I was doing my tour of Northern California, I blasted it with the windows down... and then everyone heard and thought, WHAT THE HECK IS THAT AMAZING SONG?!? Then shazamed it.

Posted by: Joe. 16th May 2017, 08:56 AM

When do we think they'll announce this? The more I think about it, the more I think we're getting a Stormzy radio edit.

Posted by: caseclosed 16th May 2017, 01:37 PM

Ugh, it ruins the whole purpose of the song.

Posted by: Liаm 16th May 2017, 02:06 PM

I like Stormzy but I'd be fuming at a remix with him, it definitely does defeat the purpose but the signs do point towards it :/ I don't mind rap features when it works like in No More Sad Songs but this is definitely a song that does NOT need it.

Posted by: robbiesglory 18th May 2017, 03:55 PM

The girls are announcing something big tomorrow? Could be an announcement for this.

Posted by: Liаm 18th May 2017, 04:11 PM

Oh lord it's going to be Stormzy remix isn't it? laugh.gif

Posted by: robbiesglory 18th May 2017, 04:14 PM

I'm having second doubts they never really hype up a single announcement and they made a playlist with a message saying "We are so excited its time to share something big with you but wait for it its on the way we love you xo the girls"

Posted by: Karl. 18th May 2017, 04:16 PM

I lowkey think that it'll be the Asian leg of the Glory Days Tour.. I mean they randomly retweeted that tweet.

Posted by: Defaze 18th May 2017, 04:19 PM

I wouldn't be huuugely opposed to a Stormzy feature on 'Power', but the roles being reversed sounds so much more exciting.

Each to their own I guess, but I'm a big fan of a lot of his output. A lot more tolerable than MGK at least (even if his rap was pretty decent in the end).

Posted by: Joe. 18th May 2017, 06:40 PM

As far as rappers go Stomzy is one of the best they could go for I'd say.

It's not that it's Stormzy, I like him too, but it just ruins the message of a song to have a male rapper feature and it really doesn't need it.

I'd agree here.

Personally, I think with a BGT performance and a really strong video it would have been a big hit. I think they should have used Stormzy on No More Sad Songs and made that a smash, instead of that nobody rapper.

MGK's rap is brilliant (one of the best musical moments of the year so far imo), and I know plenty of people on here did enjoy the rap more than other rent-a-rapper features.

They're posting lots of pics from the shoot on IG randomly, and the stan in me noticed a comment by Tinashe, with Leigh-Anne replying... it's too much for me to take at the thought of them working together! Lmao.

Plus, I think Tinashe would fit the message of 'Power' so much better than Stormzy. I want the Stormzy collab to be a seperate release. Maybe re-working of 'Blinded By Your Grace (Part 2)' or something.

Ahhhh! So excited to see what it is either way. Tinashe won't be collabing with them I don't think, but literally R.I.P me if they did. Lmao.

What the hell? That kind of negative PR won't do them any good. Don't forget Little Mix are a GLOBAL act whereas Stormzy is very much UK-known, also people who aren't acquianted with grime may not know him. He is kinda known to a lot of people but LM are the bigger act

I must echo what Aly says, I'm not here for him musically at ALL but I do admire him as a person actually. Hopefully he slots in quite nicely on this. Remaining open minded cause I'm not a lil rude shit cool2.gif

Posted by: Liаm 19th May 2017, 10:42 PM

This isn't really about global, it's the fourth single so will probably only really do anything in the UK. In terms of the UK Stormzy is a genius choice, one of the biggest names in music atm and will open up the song to an audience who might not bat an eyelid at the girls otherwise. I'm coming round to it a bit more, I expect the lyrics will still be you go girl just by a man.

Posted by: Davidson 19th May 2017, 10:46 PM

I think it's definitely a good idea as 'Power', although the chorus is fabulous, it is a messy as hell song.

Having a Stormzy feature might mean they tidy it up a lot and they might get rid of those awful "motorbike motorbike zooms" from the radio version. We can all hope and pray.

I'm all here for the artwork and video this Friday, coinciding for me leaving college! Yes! But they need to stop with the features, I quite like Stormzy so I would of rather they left NMSS off Machine Gun Kelly, I always listen to the album version anyway and Stormzy is far more well known in the UK at least than Machine Gun Kelly, who just comes off as cringe most of the time. They could of achieved the same chart position without him but what's done is done, here for the video and think the snippet sounds better than expected!

Can we talk about this please? Specifically the drop at 2.50.

The choreo if fantastic and the GP needs to see this on TV, it would be huge for them with or without a feature.

Posted by: Cremey 22nd May 2017, 06:05 PM

Can't wait for this to smash 😍
And yeah, we'd better get some amazing tv performances with full choreography.

OMG that live peformance of Power was insane it really goes off live !

Posted by: Jonjo 22nd May 2017, 10:37 PM

HOLY. f***. YES.

I AM READY FOR THIS TO BE A HIT! It better be. Seems to be a great crowd pleaser and it's nice they have a starting song which isn't 'Salute'! laugh.gif

Posted by: shindymindy 23rd May 2017, 09:04 AM

I've watched that performance about 20 times already!

The song is HUGE - it was always a massive song but seeing it being performed is incredible.
Can't wait to see how it does - I think it will be massive. What a great choice.

Hopefully they get a slot on BGT and completely kill the performance.

Posted by: Jonjo 25th May 2017, 11:27 AM

Not long to go now!

They posted an image of each of them on the set of the video! Looks so vibrant! *.*

Don't be fooled, I got you wrapped up
In the arms of an animal
Got you thinking that I'm all innocent
But wait 'till I get you home
If you don't baby you should know
I'm the one who's in control
Motorbike, motorbike, motorbike, motorbike
Bike, bike, bike, bike
Bike, bike, bike, bike, bike, bike, whoop

You're the man
But I got the, I got the, I got the power
You make rain
But I'll make it, I'll make it, I'll make it shower
You should know, I'm the one who's in control
I'll let you come take the wheel, long as you don't forget

All of this is gone, it's picks up when the "you're the man" is repeated and tempo picks up.

Posted by: Jonjo 25th May 2017, 03:28 PM

Oh. The beginning of the verse seems disjointed, but towards the end I think it really blends well! Going to take some getting used to, but it's actually a decent feature.

How come Little Mix can get the features verses right, whilst other pop acts seem to not be able to? laugh.gif

Missy Elliott, Sean Paul, Machine Gun Kelly and now Stormzy all bring a new lease of life to the songs to some extent! The only one I don't bother with is the Kid Ink feature.

Posted by: Defaze 25th May 2017, 05:53 PM

I'm on the fence about this. I don't think it's terrible by any means, but the first half of the rap is a bit clunky, and they definitely cut out some of the best parts of the original. I'd probably rank it above only Kid Ink in terms of remixes, which is a shame because I do think Stormzy is brilliant.

The song remains a bop regardless.

Posted by: Ryan. 25th May 2017, 07:09 PM

I still find the song itself only "good" at best, it's definitely one of their weakest singles. But the album to me only had three big smashes on and they've released them all already. I'd have liked Your Love for summer but this is one of the best remaining choices but it is still fairly average with or without Stormzy.

Surely a re-release or new album is coming after this, can't see them releasing anything else after Power.

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 25th May 2017, 07:44 PM

I think it's easily the best song on the album.

Posted by: Jonjo 25th May 2017, 08:44 PM

FFS. Now I'm gonna have to watch it!!

But really excited about that! wub.gif

I feel like the first half of Stormzy's verse could've been the intro, leading into Perrie's part, with the 2nd half being used right where it is (I really love the transition into the final big chorus from his verse <3)

Posted by: Joe. 25th May 2017, 11:21 PM

This isn't featured on iTunes at all. (It's on Hot Songs, but too far back to have an effect)

Posted by: tomwright123 25th May 2017, 11:23 PM

On the whole, I think the feature fits in well. I don't really think it was essential as the song is a banger without out, but if it materializes into a top 10 hit for the girls I won't be complaining. I am intrigued to see how the public responds to this though, the iTunes position tomorrow will be very interesting, I hope they connect with it more than NMSS

Posted by: liamk97 25th May 2017, 11:25 PM

Disappointed to say that I don't find Stormzy's verse is a natural fit at all. I was hoping this remix would clean the song up a bit but everything about it just sounds so clunky.

Posted by: Cremey 25th May 2017, 11:27 PM

I wasn't sure about the feature on first listen but I'm really liking it now.
I'd rather they'd collaborated on a brand new song, but if it helps to make this song the hit it deserves to be I won't be complaining :')

Not playlisted on R1 sad.gif 3rd on New My Friday on Spotify though.

Posted by: ~josh~ 26th May 2017, 06:12 AM

Aww, really not keen on this as a single sad.gif Power has always been one of my least favourite tracks on Glory Days as it is an absolute clunky mess tbh sad.gif I'm glad they cut out the motorbike bits but then they ended up being in it right at the end and they kept the equally awkward 'HOLD UP' anyway so it still sounds cheesy. Stormzy has the best bit of the track to be honest...

I've absolutely adored all of Little Mix's singles since Black Magic (in a every song is a 10/10 track way) but this is their first proper dud for me. I'm glad you guys seems to be liking it though, hopefully they can get another decent sized hit from it.

Posted by: BigMixer 26th May 2017, 08:11 AM

#22 on iTunes already, coming for top 10!

Posted by: Joe. 26th May 2017, 08:50 AM

I can't see the Jade thing being true at all, who ever said it sounded like fan fic I agree. I do think they need a break though.

Surprising that it's not 50 on Spotfiy today! (53). I thought being #3 on NMF playlist would have helped it more with Stormzy's name.

Up to #6 on iTunes though!

Yas. Their last performance was epic -- hard to believe it's been three years! Bit unexpected though, considering two of them are their exes! I wonder if Stormzy will join them?

Edit: On another note, I've come around to Stormzy's verse already. It does disrupt the momentum a little, but the final chorus and the chants still sound euphoric. I've heard it a couple of times on Capital today alone -- it really pops off when driving.

Posted by: shindymindy 27th May 2017, 09:04 PM

Going to be huge. Video will prob either be out by then already or come out straight afterwards.

They're not playing with this one

Posted by: robbiesglory 27th May 2017, 09:25 PM

Diversity aren't performing with the girls at the final. I think they forgot to edit the page when the last performed with them but it is now changed.

It will still be big just not as big as usual.

EDIT:

Manchester concert - 18:00 - 21:00
BGT: 19:30 - 22:00

Not sure when LM will perform but it is usually towards the end before the results no?
They could actually perform after the concert has finished.

Looking at the timings, the TV guide says One Love is 6 - 9, whereas BGT is 7;30 - 10, so it might not actually overlap it at all.

Tbh, I can see them actually still doing something, which is why they probably haven't said anything about cancelling. If they were to have been cancelled, then I'm sure they would have said something by now.

Why? If all you had to do to get a top ten is perform it once on television, then every popstar in the land would be doing it.

Why does a comment need to be referenced to The Saturdays? Glory Days has been huge for them, it could have been even bigger had they bothered to promote! The last single they promoted the hell out of was Black Magic!

They were in a scary position with Black Magic. They went literally everywhere that would have them and performed the song. But that's not what big artists do. They do the shows that give big boosts.

Posted by: HausofSZA 2nd June 2017, 12:25 PM

Over-promoting DOES NOT WORK. People get sick and tired of seeing the same acts over and over again. Little Mix have got their promotion/release strategies down perfectly and I am baffled at people that complain about it.

Sure a few more spots would be nice but they are doing fantastically in a music scene that is changing with streaming etc and they are staying so relevant.

Also they're 4 young girls working their asses off day after day, doing high octane dance routines, touring the world etc... getting these promo spots seem like easy work but it must be EXHAUSTING to always be in the limelight so let them have their breathing space before they burn out!

I cannot fault their release strategies one iota.

Posted by: shindymindy 2nd June 2017, 01:51 PM

They just confirmed via twitter that they are not 'attending' BGT tomorrow.

Am i reading too much into it? Attending!

Posted by: MrLoverboy 2nd June 2017, 01:58 PM

So upsetting cry.gif A huge performance by them was needed and Power totally deserves it.

Posted by: Klaus 2nd June 2017, 02:09 PM

It won't be on the same peformance levels but surely they'll be performing this at the One Love concert?

Posted by: Defaze 2nd June 2017, 02:29 PM

That sucks -- 'Power' really could've done with the performance, but it can't be helped. The Manchester concert is for an amazing cause, and I'm glad it took precedence.

(Keeping fans in the dark for a couple of days is really shitty though).

Yeah that's my biggest complaint about all this. Laying low for days letting people speculate whether they'd do it or not just to come up and say one day before the show and say "yeah we won't do it bye" is pretty shit.

Posted by: shindymindy 2nd June 2017, 02:49 PM

I'm really happy they're doing the concert in Manchester but I can't lie - I'm super disappointed about BGT. Just imagine the performance we would have gotten. It would have been iconic!

Posted by: DiamondHeart 2nd June 2017, 03:25 PM

Surely they could of pre-recorded the performance and then done the Manchester gig. I'm not going to lie I am slightly disappointed about them missing BGT but I think it makes more sense for them to take the Manchester gig! Power has placed in the top 40 today at 27. Making it their 17th single to reach the top 40, yet their lowest charting single so far.

It is a huge shame, because I imagine their entire release strategy was centered around the BGT performance. I still think it'll outperform NMSS though, especially if it also receives a discount.

Tbf, we don't know what was happening behind the scenes. Maybe they were trying to figure out a way that the performance could still go ahead, until they realised they wouldn't have much rehearsal time etc..?

Very fun. They ALL completely SLAY.

My criticism would be... LACK OF CHOREOGRAPHY!? WTH? It looked like they were building to that for the final chorus, but we got nothing sad.gif A big choreography scene or two could've elevated it from a "very good" video to "great" video, imo! sad.gif

BUT, as I said. It's a very fun, camp and enjoyable video. Repeatibility is there, which is what let 'No More Sad Songs' down, for me.

Posted by: Cameron 8th June 2017, 11:12 PM

oh my god, I am having to watch it over and over to see all the solo scenes and stuff! A jammed pack video which is definitely not boring!

Their best video by far for me! But I do agree with Jonjo -- a bit of choreography would have been welcomed. Still, it definitely has better replayability than NMSS.

Posted by: liamk97 8th June 2017, 11:19 PM

True, it's a shame there was no dance routine, but that's probably my favourite video from them this era.

So vibrant and full of attitude and I loved all the little elements of empowerment and embracement.

Posted by: Joe. 8th June 2017, 11:26 PM

Easily the best video of the era. The only thing is Stormzy. I really like his rap but his inclusion in the 'story' here doesn't feel organic at all, it's quite jarring.

He was added after they filmed the solo version though, so there's not much they could do.

The colours and styling is great. Leigh Anne looks fantastic.

Posted by: BigMixer 8th June 2017, 11:26 PM

I actually really enjoyed Stormzy's scenes; admittedly it did feel a little shoehorned in, but I liked the set-up, and the part with the stylists dancing behind him is adorable. I agree re Stormzy's verse in general though, I've come around to it massively.

Agreed. I've learned to expect featured rappers to be shoehorned into videos, much like they are on the actual song, but I did really his scenes in this vid.

Ah, that video is amazing! They all look like they're having so much fun and they look gorgeous too. My favourite looks were Perrie (slaying the indie look!!) and Leigh-Anne's amazing hair *-*

The song just still isn't clicking with me though, the first half just sounds so messy. It picks up in the second half for me though with Stormzy's verse and then the amazing final chorus with all the ad libs wub.gif I just find it hard to sit through the rest of the song to be honest and I'm not going back to it much at all (I've been putting it in my Spotify playlists but just keep skipping over it because I don't really want to listen to it sad.gif).

I'm disappointed in the lack of a dance routine but there was a lot of others things going on. Video is definitely their best this era and is a big improvement on the first two videos.

I love the video, especially Jade with the DR Queens and Leigh-Anne's boots, I want some biggrin.gif probably my second favourite from them after SOTME, I agree I wish there was more of a dance routine but I love the shot with their mums! So cute and miles ahead of NMSS visually and in direction! At first I wasn't sure about Stormzy, but I've come to love his feature, nearly as much as the original!

Also their Capital Summertime Ball performance was miles ahead of their Big Weekend performance of the song and the crowd were so much better! I'm unsure of this reaching the top 10, unless they discount it and do promo in the same week, but if that recent Spotify update is anything to go by and it remains stable on iTunes, I reckon it has a strong chance of outpeaking NMSS! Can see it having a new peak this Friday, even if it doesn't reach the top 20! So proud, I love this song/video and these girls! Days like these are heaven, especially compared to the days of stanning The Saturdays, as much as I loved them. A girlband single done RIGHT!!! Happy to see this being so well-recieved

Posted by: Defaze 11th June 2017, 04:52 PM

I'm properly obsessed with this after the 1-2 punch of the video and the Summertime Ball performance. I think it would've been massive if BGT had went ahead as planned, but I still think it has a good chance of being a big hit for them. I reckon they'll discount it if it's on the cusp of the top 10; they seemed pretty intent on getting NMSS there.

The constant dark green updates are great to see though, this is really starting to take off which I am SO happy to see. When they didn't get the BGT performance, I was slightly worried this could be their first to miss top 20 which would've been so upsetting for one of their strongest singles in my eyes, but I'm thinking it should do better than No More Sad Songs now. Hopefully, anyway, if it can keep this momentum for a little longer.

Probably, yes.

Power is 16 in the mids FYI.

Posted by: pippa 12th June 2017, 01:49 PM

Power should safely become the 4th top 20 single for them from Glory Days. The question is can it do enough to help them achieve a third top 10 hit from the era. Power, i am hopeful can really increase interest in the album again. Not that interest is faded in the album, i just feel it would be so good if it can push its way over 700,000 sales.

We were talking more about Touch's video because at first a lot of people had mixed feelings about it and over time it grew on them since it has a great replay value. Pretty much everyone said Power's video is amazing right away so there's not that much to talk about it. And as for the general public, the video is still trending on Youtube, being prasied, and of course gaining views fast.

And as for the general public, the video is still trending on Youtube, being prasied, and of course gaining views fast.


Agreed - I feel that Power is a much bigger 'moment' for LM then Touch was.
I can see this video being one of their most played ones.

Posted by: RobBob 12th June 2017, 04:10 PM

People just tend to stick videos on for songs they love though and there's no doubting Touch will have a much bigger continued impact than Power on that front. This video really does have such a replayable factor though, I can't take my eyes off Leigh-Anne. *.*

Posted by: Jonjo 13th June 2017, 10:10 AM

I think premiering the video during Pride month was an amazing move tbh. I can see this being at the top of party playlists. People absolutely LOVE this message (after all it's what made The Spice Girls so popular) so it's being received positively and majorly.

So happy with how this is doing. If it can hold up over the "weekend effect" then that will determine whether it's gonna be a top 10 hit eventually or not I think.

NMSS is my second fav after Touch, while I'll take any success, NMSS deserved a lot better.

NMSS did deserve much better but it will end up being a gold selling single in a few months.

I had thought if it was going to make a top 10 position it would be this week. That said, i will be disappointed if its not top 15 this week and up on its midweek chart position of number 16.

No, streaming will hold it back this week but if it continues picking up like it has done this week then top 10 next week is guaranteed.

I can't believe it's 04 on iTunes!!! Even without the version that's floating outside the top 100! Also the only DG update in the top 15! It's taken over the new Guetta track, I don't think it'll take over One Last Time (just because the difference is so big and Grande has a second version in the top 40) but I do think it has the potential to overtake Niall's track considering it's jumps! It's only had one red up date in the last 29 hours. I think it can still climb on Spotify too, happy to see it nearly 20 places higher in the midweek update!

I don't think they should discount it just yet, maybe wait until Friday the 23rd (at the least) because if Radio 1 A/B-List it, Power has a good chance at top 10, maybe top 5 if streams and sales continue to improve and stabilize.

That's true. I didnt think of that, I always kinda split little mix between pre Black Magic and Post Black Magic because that's when their imperial phase started.

Posted by: burbe 13th June 2017, 08:44 PM

Little Mix are on a roll, another great single! The Stormzy section into the final chorus is such a great moment. I didn't particularly like Shout Out To My Ex but since Touch, I've loved all three singles! Easily their three best ever.

I can't see them trying for the US next era after this year. They won't decline TV appearances if invited, but they should give up. It really doesn't pay off.

Posted by: Jade 14th June 2017, 04:10 AM

Just watched this video for the first time and I agree that it was CRYING out for a dance routine for the final chorus! It's nice enough though, my second favourite video of the era behind the one for 'Shout Out To My Ex'. The song itself is such an exciting and explosive ride wub.gif It also ranks second for me this era in terms of song quality just behind 'Touch'. I am getting used to the Stormzy version now and the main positive is that I feel like it builds up to the final chorus more! Just as Stormzy's part is coming to an end, it fades so effectively with the LM vocals intertwining with his and it's a total "here it comes! *.*" moment when you just know this final chorus is around the corner. It sounds great when it hits - like they have saved the best bit until last and are throwing everything at you! Shocked but ecstatic that this is making impressive progress at the moment sans BGT performance! I thought it may be loved by the fans but a bit too risky and exciting for the current chart climate (reminds me a bit of some Girls Aloud singles in that respect, I am so here for this kind of risky, bold and slick girlgroup sound!), so hallelujah for that. Top 10 hit please!

Cannot wait to see them perform this in November on tour heart.gif

It always has felt like the track that casual fans were aware of and loved. It's an obvious stand out from listen 1, from the brash intro to Jesy's motorbikes so it's hard to ignore. Absolute pop gold and I'm delighted they took a chance on this because I really never saw any risk sad.gif Also getting very used to the Stormzy version myself and I agree about how it makes the final chorus hit harder even if I do miss Jesy's first "motorbikes" a bit.

Not only does he give the song a further "cool" factor, but he is a god on streaming too. The respect for the GP have for him cancel out the martmite feeling some get for some of the more "out there" lyrics.

It's a great combination of a fantastic video (That wasn't horribly delayed like SLS, Touch and NMSS), well chosen feature and a quite unique banger at the core.


Also, the mids were from yesterday, my mistake. And for the record, it was outselling 15,14,13 on Monday.

Oddly enough, they're still hammering NMSS instead, just as they were doing with 'Touch' back in March. I don't understand their inability to give two LM songs high rotation. They certainly have no qualms spamming multiple Ed Sheeran tracks.

Depends how much it falls on iTunes over the weekend. If it falls as low as 7/8 then probably not, if it can stay top 5 it has a slight chance if streaming increases a bit.

I really thought it'd be kept on the front of Hot Songs given it only got half a week.

...and up 22 places on the official chart, outpeaking NMSS like I expected. I reckon it has a great chance of top 10 next week! Even though there are new releases from Calvin Harris and DJ Khaled/Rihanna, I reckon it can easily overtake Niall, Shawn and Charlie and possibly two of the JB tracks. The Behind the Scenes is a great, quick piece of promotion, but is there any more promo lined up? They could do a Facebook livestream Q&A or something just to help the track (not that it needs it), just I want this to reach as high as possible! Probably my favourite LM single of all time.

Touch and go. It needs to rise a couple more spaces on spotify fast, as even though they're top 5 on iTunes they aren't that far ahead.

The charity single is going to edge them out, isn't it? laugh.gif Either that, or Rita. I do hope it gets discounted on Friday, because it really deserves top 10 after the BGT cancellation.

Clyde 1 have been spinning the album version of this. I do appreciate Stormzy's verse, but the middle 8 in the original sounds incredible on the radio.

I imagine it'll climb now that the weekend's over. Quite odd that it reached the top 20 quickly and then stalled entirely though.

I'm hoping this'll be top 10 in today's midweeks.

Really want this to crack top 15 on Spotify, it looked like it was edging closer at 17 for two days but then dropped back down to 18 (which is good because it's stable but I want this to be a top 10!

To be fair, it only fell to #18 because of 'Wild Thoughts', which was always going to go top 10 easily.

It'll be close for sure. I can see it being between them and Charlie Puth/Rita Ora for the #10 spot, although they're still pulling away from the latter despite her discount.

Posted by: Defaze 19th June 2017, 04:59 PM

I wasn't expecting them to be ahead of Niall. 'I'm the One' will probably overtake since it was deleted on Saturday, but I hope they can hold on to #9 or #10.

Still #8. Just got the mids and it's looking good for the girls this week.

Dj K is going to push them down to #9, but it doesn't look like they'll be lower than that as nothing else below them has outsold them. So #9 is probable, #10 if the charity track takes of in a major way.

Posted by: Kye 20th June 2017, 01:09 PM

Yes, the holding of the number 8 position in the latest update indicates they will manage a third top 10 hit from Glory Days which is just wonderful for them.

There's loads of lists but the main three that have a chart effect is A, H And S. a list. Hits list and Superhits list. All of their singles since Black Magic have managed at least as couple of weeks on S.

Neither can I, hopefully Rita's video release is too late, but yeah #11 is looking somewhat likely, and I can't see any way for them to increase next week either as the video's out and they have no promotion - They also appear to have stalled on Spotify now. Blah at another #11.

Posted by: BigMixer 22nd June 2017, 10:30 AM

Everybody is buying the charity single and that's why everything else pretty much stalled.

4
Liam Payne - Strip That Down (feat. Quavo)
0.0239
5
Ariana Grande - One Last Time
0.0223
6
Rita Ora - Your Song
0.0204
7
Niall Horan - Slow Hands
0.0182
8
Little Mix - Power (feat. Stormzy)
0.0176


These are all super close, so there is still hope they'll be #10 tomorrow.

I said last week they should discount it on iTunes whilst the iron was still hot. Bloody Rita seems to have timed it perfectly with the discount and video in the same week. If 'Power' peaks at #11 I'm going to flip... laugh.gif

It's so hard to say because we didn't have mids on Thursday. But I feel given Rita's streaming will be upweighed against them and they collapsed a bit on iTunes they could end up at 11 because of DJ K and Artists for Grenfall which will 100% be ahead (Sorry Shindymindy, they just didn't have a huge lead over 11). There's a possibility that they could just hang onto #10 though. Let's all keep our fingers crossed.
