01. Lonely Together [11/10]
02. Anywhere [10/10]
03. Let You Love Me [8/10]
04. For You (Fifty Shades Freed) [8/10]
05. Your Song [6/10]
06. Girls [4/10]

Lonely Together is one of my all time faves now, a big highlight for both artists.
Anywhere is just about as good as pop generally gets in current era too, big song!
3rd seems about right for the new single, it's a big improvement from Girls for sure. Too early to judge really but think it'll grow into an 8/10.
For You was surprisingly good considering its Liam Payne feature.
was never too fussed over Your Song, it's decent but lacking.
Girls is quite poor, the features don't help it either, no wonder that it underperformed.

1. Anywhere
2. Lonely Together
3. Girls
4. Your Song
5. For You
6. Let You Love Me

It's hard to rank cause I really love them all, and I think I could see Let You Love Me climbing up to fourth, maybe third but it's a bit too recent for me to properly judge yet. Every single song there is incredible though wub.gif

3. Your song (10/10)
4. Let you love me (9/10 atm)
5. Lonely together (5.5/10)

Anywhere easily top, one of the best songs of the past few years 😍 YS is underrated and LT is overrated

02 Lonely Together 10/10
03 Your Song 10/10
04 For You 8/10
05 Let You Love Me 7/10

I have no idea what they were thinking with Girls.

LYLM shouldn’t be leading the album either!

1. Lonely Together 11/10
2. Anywhere 10.999/10

Both of these are such huge career highlights from her for me, Lonely Together just edges Anywhere though

3. Let You Love Me 8/10
4. Your Song 7.5/10

Let You Love Me is really recent but it's sounding great to me so far, Your Song has gone down a bit over time

5. For You 4/10
6. Girls -1/10

For You is really dull tbh, the worst Fifty Shades single for me (including Ellie Screeching wink.gif). And Girls is just... nope.

This is what my order for the first five releases is in terms of my personal chart's points system:

1. [Peak: #01 | Points: 1297 - Diamond] Anywhere
2. [Peak: #03 | Points: 592 - Gold] Lonely Together
3. [Peak: #01 | Points: 468 - Gold] For You
4. [Peak: #04 | Points: 464 - Gold] Your Song
5. [Peak: #05 | Points: 186 - Uncertified] Girls

Which I think is accurate to how I feel about them currently!

I'm not too sure where I'd place Let You Love Me yet, obviously it's so new right now. I love it though! I possibly already prefer it to For You... so let's slot it between Lonely Together and For You. cool2.gif

A stan, oops. What a run of singles *.* I think LYLM could eventually get up to #3 but felt a bit premature to put it there already!

"Let You Love Me" definitely has the potential to climb up to third! wub.gif The top two are my favourite Rita songs alongside "I Will Never Let You Down".

1. Anywhere (11/10)
2. Lonely Together [Ft Avicii] (10/10}
3. Let You Love Me {8/10}
4. Your Song (8/10)
5. For You (Fifty Shades Freed) [Ft Liam Payne] (7/10}
6. Girls [Ft Cardi B, Bebe Rexha & Charli XCX] (3/10)


- 'Anywhere' = Firstly I'm so glad that all of these are gonna end up on the album, although its pretty strange that 6 singles have been released before album, but oh well, anyway this song is absolutely amazing, definitely the best thing she's ever done so far and totally unexpected as I did really enjoy the previous 2 releases and didn't expect her to top 'LT', but WOW, glad she did and have listened to this over and over again and still currently on my playlist. Her vocals are nicely controlled at the opening section against a stripped back rhythm and a catchy chorus that you can chill out too.

-'Lonely Together' = Another fantastic number that has a true sadness attached to it, considering that this was Avicii's last song before his tragic death and its upsetting that we've lost such an amazing talent, but songs like this will always live on in his memory and something that he should have been well and truly proud off.

- 'Let You Love Me' = I know this is really early to call and considering I've only heard this today, but I'm really liking this so far and ranking it this high just goes to show how great this already is. Hope this becomes another big hit for her, especially after that awful 'Girls' basically tanked.

- 'Your Song' = Found this a really good comeback for her, especially after the messy releases of stand-alone singles and no second album and was even worried that her career was on its way out, but thankfully this put her back on the map and plus it's a really catchy bop as well.

- 'For You' = I hate the Fifty Shades movies (only seen the first one and that's enough) and the soundtrack songs have mainly been hit or miss for me (liked Ellie Goulding's one, but couldn't stand Zayn/Taylor Swift's one) and at first weren't keen on this one, but it has grown on me over time and Rita's vocals do sound on this and really should have been given more of a chance to shine and that's what kinda holds it back for me. Overall a decent song though.

- 'Girls' - To be honest I would have been fine if this was left off the album, but by the looks of things, it's gonna be on there. Don't think I'm gonna like this anytime soon and find it so forgettable that I can't remember how it even goes. Not very good at all and does nothing for the vocalists involved.

01. Anywhere [10/10]
02. Let You Love Me [10/10]
03. For You (Fifty Shades Freed) [10/10]
04. Girls [8.5/10]
05. Your Song [8/10]
06. Lonely Together [7.5/10]

'Anywhere' is sfg (still behind IWNLYD & BOM as my fave Rita songs though). LMLY is sfg too. Depending on how it holds up in my affections after plays and things, could potentially overtake Anywhere.

For You is pop soundtrack perfection. Girls still disappoints me in comparison to the live version of the song (I feel the live version feels a lot less hollow) but it still bops! Your Song I bop to when it's on and go back to it occasionally, but not as much as I should for a Rita track. Same with Lonely Together except I feel that's a bit more generic and I have always had a problem with her vocal production on that song.

4. Anywhere (8/10)
5. Your Song (7/10)

Lonely Together wub.gif Girls is a bop, sorry ;o I could see Let You Love Me going up to #2 in time (maybe even #1), Anywhere is lushhhh as well! Your Song is good but not something I go back to much and was never a big fan of For You even though on paper I should've been something I loved aha.
