R.I.P. was a brilliant debut single - high quality and it stood out, though she's topped it loads since! I'd have put it a little lower actually, but it's still great.

'R.I.P' is just god-awful noise to me.

8 7.94 Your Song

Hot right now: Feel_The_Fever (11)
R.I.P. to the bullshit: Dobbo (0)

Rita's comeback single in 2017, co-written by Ed Sheeran of course, kicked off the Phoenix era in style. Peaking at #7 and becoming Rita's biggest selling track (of course, until later that year), Your Song proved that Rita could still achieve a hit single after Body On Me's disappointing performance over 18 months before. The track has always seemed to get a lukewarm response on Buzzjack, but obviously its fans came out to support it in this rate, receiving only 4 scores less than 7!

It wasn't my fave when it first came out, but 'Your Song' deffo grew on me so this position seems fair.

I always had a bit of a soft spot for 'Your Song'.

YS is cute. But I'm kinda bored of it now. I'd have preferred a few other tracks in the top 10 over it, personally.

EDIT: Also, Ritual still being in *.* S L A Y !!

7 8.07 Black Widow Iggy Azalea feat. Rita Ora

Hot right now: Nick F1, George.keh, Josh, Cqmerqn, JosephStyles, Calum, Jay, Cody Burnett (10)
R.I.P. to the bullshit: Feel_The_Fever, Rhoda Camel (5)

Next up is Rita's collaboration with Iggy Azalea! The release of Black Widow directly followed on from Iggy's huge US #1 hit Fancy, and thankfully the huge success continued. This hit #3 in the US, making it Rita's biggest hit there to date! The track was co-written by Katy Perry and was originally intended for her own album Prism. Its lyrical theme is regarding revenge following on from a failed relationship.

Ohhh, well that explains Black Widow sounding so similar to Dark Horse! I'm trying to imagine both of those ending up on Prism laugh.gif

6 8.18 Doing It Charli XCX feat. Rita Ora

Hot right now: ...ready for it, blacksquare (11) | Jade, Jase, George.keh, Bre, Josh!, Joe, Jay, Cremey, Rhoda Camel (10)
R.I.P. to the bullshit: Dobbo (0), LMLou (1)

Just missing out on the top 5 is Rita's first collaboration with Charli XCX, 'Doing It'. This went on to be a big top 10 hit for them, peaking at #8 and going Silver. It's a delicous slice of pop. Hooks and melodies galore. I'm surprised to research it didn't do anything in the US... I assumed it was a low BBH100 hit for them, but nope. Deserved better tbh.

J'adore wub.gif One of Charli & Rita's very best singles... I'd definitely have it within Rita's top 5 here.

It's an enjoyable bop, but I don't exactly return to it that often.

I remember at the time being glad it made the top 10 though, I wasn't sure it would with how messily the release/pre-order situation played out.
