NO remains her best for me, what an absolute anthem
 This is pretty solid, I think I'll be revisiting it a lot and I'm delighted she's got instant support!

She actually looks amazing! She’s looking so good!
This is actually pretty good, I just don’t ever think she will ever reach the heights that her label want her too though, she needs to have that moment where she looks like an A GAME popstar and her presence always seems to let her down. Kindly Calm Me Down to make this album plz |

How is she going to perform All About That Bass in the future though when she's skinny? Didn't think that one through

this might need a couple more listens as it's not hitting me straight away. good to see she's still releasing her usual pop sounding songs tho.

People moaning about the length of this just goes to show how people will go to any extent to moan!
First listen it’s very enjoyable as it’s all very “Hair Down” - infectious

Why does length matter though? Lots of artists have intros and interludes which are short but doesn't make them any less enjoyable than tracks which are longer?

2 and a half minutes is unusually short for a lead pop single though. People just want to enjoy it for longer I guess. It's not really moaning more than just wishing it had an extra verse or middle 8 or something to give it a longer running time and enjoying it more
It's a common theme with songs that are shorter than your typical 3 and a half/4 minute pop songs you enjoy to wish they were a little longer so you could enjoy more of it. But honestly, it's not really an issue It's just I don't think it's fair to say people are moaning just coz they wish it was longer

I like the song but for a comeback and a lead single for a popstar who's meant to be one of the most notiable female popstars, I just think it's a bit weak and it's nowhere near the level of standard she should be at. The chorus could have been a bit longer but in general it's not a song that sounds like it's going to be a smash, 'No' and 'Me Too' are miles ahead of this and I think this is my least favourite single by her. It's good, just not good enough. It's not strong enough to lead the album which has a release date of June but it's performance on iTunes isn't really encouraging either.
SHE LOOKS AMAZING THOUGH. |

Length doesn't matter.
But ... the song is not great. |

There are posts in this thread which critique over length who didn't like the track so I don't think they'd want it to be longer would they? I just feel with Meghan (and I'd classify myself as a casual fan) that anything she puts her name to or does, will instantly receive a majority criticism in the similar way Jessie J does. |

It's not a big unknown reaction for someone to be disappointed that a song is shorter than they'd like. It doesn't mean the song can't still be good.

It isn't but I don't understand how it can be suggested that you can dislike the song and it's length and then want it to be longer so you can enjoy it? It doesn't make sense. QUOTE(cqmerqn @ Mar 2 2018, 10:07 PM) This is already falling on iTunes... couldn’t even go top 50 despite R1, R2 and Capital support It's been out less than 24 hours and just because it's got support in that time doesn't mean it's going to be an instant hit and it's currently 48 on iTunes.

I've just gone through to see who was "moaning" about length, coz honestly, I couldn't remember seeing anyone say they hated the song and wanted it to be longer.
QUOTE(UltraReputation @ Mar 1 2018, 01:02 PM) This is SO GOOD. What a bop ���� It's so short though, only two and a half minutes! QUOTE(Jack @ Mar 1 2018, 01:25 PM) This is SO good and so instant. Only criticism is that the song is a little bit too short but I really love it. Excited for more QUOTE(jjake @ Mar 1 2018, 04:40 PM) this is f***ing terrible...2m30 for a lead single? could she not be arsed to construct a proper song?! That's literally it? (when it's not been a part of this discussion)jjake's issue is perfectly valid, I thought? He's not saying he wants it longer coz he hates it

I’m happy it’s so short because that means it won’t drag on as much during the chart show
