I like the song, but if 'Don't Say Love' or 'My Love' couldn't be hits I sadly don't see what could for her.

The video is just what happens when a label slashes your budget. She can say it is artistic but really it is just cheap.

Tbh for all the impact that it will have she might have well have saved the money and not bothered with a video but I think having one is more about saving face. An EP not an album and a single with no physical or video would scream this is not viable.

It kinda begs the question why all of the girls shouted from the rooftops about their albums in the first place, when no such thing was guaranteed. Jade has played it well by not promising anything so far. It then makes them look a fool if what they promised and promoted never ends up materialising.

I really didn't expect Leigh to repeat some of the mistakes Jesy made with her solo career if I'm honest.

This makes no sense?

Surely it'd make sense to promote this EP and the songs and videos she's making for it, otherwise what's the point?

How's she supposed to get a new audience if it's not promoted. To me it seems the label do not want to put in the funds for a big video/promo due to the underperformance of the other two singles. It's just so weird…

Leigh-Anne would love to promote this stuff. It makes it sound like she doesn't like the previous singles to what will be on the EP and that the promo will come with a more conventional song she doesn't like as much that she'll then promote? I think she's just saying anything to save face at the moment.

What she's saying makes no sense, how are you going to get new fans/reach a new audience with no promo? But she'll promote a song in 4 months after the EP? weird.

Have the label given up on her totally? The visibility of this single has been zero to the point I didn’t even realize she had released anything new until today!

I think I prefer the sound of this one to My Love which was a bit repetitive.

Really her career has not been handled well though. I feel like Jesy and Leigh both made the mistake of being overconfident or having too high expectations instead of working to establish themselves first.

How should they have worked to establish themselves?

I think unfortunately Leigh-Anne was just destined not to make it big as a solo artist, and that probably also goes for all 4 of them.

I can potentially see that being the case in the long-term. Maybe a little buzz single that gets a Top 40 finish but after that it would be a struggle to maintain any success as solo artists.

Could Little Mix be reunited sooner than expected perhaps?

I am still obsessed with this song tbh. It's gorgeous. I think it's actually my favourite of hers to date.

As much as i'd love a Little Mix comeback, i'd rather wait a while, I'm really interested to see what they all do individually.

We haven't even heard Jade or Perrie's stuff yet, I feel like they have the most potential as they were the most popular within the group.

I want all four to thrive in whatever they end up doing and being happy.

It's usually an uphill task to achieve solo success coming from a band. The first single usually has the best chance, then the downward spiral starts. I like all three songs; I mean, I still prefer them to a lot of what makes the top 10 these days.
It does seem like she expected more though, and that's the problem.
