LOVE 'My Gun', shame it's missed the top 10 (I definitely gave it more than a 5 tongue.gif ).

'This Time Around' is mediocre.

10: Love Ballad
Average:7.92


They’re just in love; Liаm (10), Nelly. S (10)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; barbaric_dan (3)

‘Love Ballad’ kicks off the top 10. I really love this song and would have loved to have seen it go top 10, but what can you do? The best thing about ‘Love Ballad’ is that it’s not a ballad. I’ve never seen Tove Lo live, but when I eventually do, I’d love to hear this live.

9: Got Love
Average: 8


They’re just in love; dhwe (11), Cody Slayberry (10), Hurricane (10),

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; NONE

Taking the averages up to an 8 is ‘Got Love’, another absolutely fantastic moment on the album. This is, I believe, strong enough for single material - much more than ‘Timebomb’, anyway.

I would have given my 11 to the demo version of Love Ballad from a few years back, the album version just sounds a bit less vibrant in comparison.

I can't believe "Like 'Em Young' was the first to leave. Absolutely NOT the worst song in the album. God, guys!

'My Gun' could have been top 10, it's good.

'Got Love' definitely should be higher than #9, what a shame!

I'm glad "Timebomb" is gone, though. What an awful track.

8: Stay High - Habits Remix (Hippie Sabotage)
Average: 8.2


They’re just in love; Spadam (11), Nick F1 (11), barbaric_dan (10), Nelly. S (10)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen; J▼hnkm (6), dandystar (6)

Tove Lo’s biggest hit of the UK comes in at #8. Usually, a remix would be lumped together with the original but, in this case because the two versions are so different, it’s impossible to rate them in the same way. ‘Stay High’ cuts out a lot of the original song, and replaces it with extra ‘oh ohs’. And Buzzjack has chosen the original as their preferred version.

7: Not On Drugs
Average: 8.33


They’re just in love; Joe (10)

Not the prettiest that they’ve ever seen;NONE

We’re getting to the really high quality Tove Lo, now. ‘Not on Drugs’ is a personal favourite of mine, though I do prefer ‘Talking Body’ as a single now. This one has a belter of a chorus and if it was successful as a single I can imagine it being quite a moment if this ever came on in a club-like situation.

6: Out Of Mind
Average: 8.4


They’re just in love; Liаm (10), Nelly (10), dandystar (10)

The highest bonus track here, ‘Out of Mind’ falls just outside the top 5. I for one love this track, and am glad it made it this high. heart.gif

In celebration that I just bought tickets to see her, here's some results.

5: Run On Love
Average: 8.42


They’re just in love; barbaric_dan (10), Liаm (10), Nelly. S (10)

Kicking off the top 5 is the Lucas Nord produced ‘Run on Love’. Not my favourite track, I don’t quite see how this has gotten to the top 5, but it’s not up to me, Buzzjack has spoken.


4: Habits (Stay High)
Average: 8.7


They’re just in love; Cody Slayberry (10), Hurricane (10), Liаm (11), dandystar (11), toxic_air (11)

Bringing up the average a bit is the original version of Habits, which, while not doing much in the UK, is Tove Lo’s biggest song, worldwide being a 3x certificated hit in America, and Buzzjack chose this as the more superior of the two versions. But they didn’t like it enough for it to be top 3.

The original Stay High is nice but still prefer the remix.

3: Moments
Average: 8.9


They’re just in love; Ultraviolence1989 (11), Joe (11), dhwe (10), Cody Slayberry (10), Nelly. S (10)

My personal favourite Tove Lo single here. I think, lyrically, it’s just stunning, and there’s a really melancholic tone to the song which strikes a chord with me. This is the next single, I hear - Where’s the video?!

Glad that's 3rd, the other two are leagues ahead of it!

I like both pretty much equally but would like a 'Thousand Miles' win. wub.gif

2: Thousand Miles
Average: 9.17


They’re just in love; Nelly (11), Mr_aly (11), J▼hnkm (11), Cody Slayberry (10), dandystar (10), Hurricane (10), Liam (10),

bringing us into the 9 averages for the top 2 is the huge tune that is Thousand Miles. This should be number 1 everywhere, forever.

...

1: Talking Body
Average: 9.3


They’re just in love; JosephStyles (11), Cody Slayberry (11), Hurricane (11), Ultraviolence1989 (10), Joe, Liam (10), Mr_aly (10), Nick F1 (10),

And there we have it! The recent hit 'Talking Body' takes the Queen of The Clouds rate crown. 'Talking Body' is a song that was steadily blowing up in America (now 2x Platinum there), and was somewhat of a sleeper hit over here, which after a rocky start has stayed very stable in the top 100, and will soon by Tove Lo's second certificated single over here (3rd including 'Heroes'). 'Talking Body' is a huge anthem and the UK top 40 is LUCKY to have had Tove Lo Grace her presence with this track at all tongue.gif. She's got a perfect song.

Habits is in my all time top 40 to be honest, anything else feels like a disappointing winner laugh.gif I'd put TB below Habits, Thousand Miles and probably Out Of Mind but it's a great track anyway of course.


Love Ballad only 10th though?! :/
