I expect it will be out on Friday, quite intrigued to hear this as the original is pretty decent. Original: txCCYBMKdB0

She's hanging on by a thread, the public aren't warming to her, all of her songs have underperformed and she has charted worse than Steve Brookstein. With Syco's track record for dropping artists, things aren't looking great right now.

Winners single - flop (irrelevant to her career) Tears huge hit So good big hit Best behaviour - flop but could of been worse Hardly a huge flop? You can't say the public aren't warming to her either as it's only the one single that hasn't done that well.

You can't say the public aren't warming to her either as it's only the one single that hasn't done that well. Tears was fairly popular, So Good was definitely not a big hit. Most people probably couldn't even name it. She is not as well known as previous contestants have been. It is harder for newer X Factor acts to have careers

Pronouns: he/him Joined: 19 April 2011 Posts: 121,689 User: 13,530	Tears was a massive hit, "fairly popular" is a massive understatement and So Good was a top 15 hit, not as big as Tears but still a big hit. Definitely feel like there's a lot of reaching happening in this thread.

Louisa sounds great on this though, much better than she did on "Best BehaviAHH" anyway. Shame it didn't come out a month or two ago when it was picking up steam on Spotify... although I wouldn't rule out the possibility of it climbing back up.

It would be good if they properly pushed it as a stand alone single and gave it a video for a UK release. It sounds amazing on the radio, Louisa definitely adds something to it.

Really been getting into this over the past few days since this was announced, it had passed me by before

On all the comments regarding her career yes 'Tears' and 'So Good' were hits but they are 10 and 5 months old already - they will be forgotten about if/when an album appears, the performance of BB and now Weak will make Syco sh!t themselves - let's face it they have dropped acts with much bigger sales before. Louisa's career so far reminds me of Amelia Lily and Diana Vickers
