James Bay returns this week with a new single featuring Julia Michaels, should be interesting!

Please be like Pink Lemonade!

(not sure if it should be here or indie/rock/alternative)

OOOH interesting! I hope it's a step up in quality after Electric Light

I'd be surprised if it's anything like Pink Lemonade if Julia's on it (thank goodness, I never clicked with that one)

Pink Lemonade was the only song from the album I really liked to be honest, Just for Tonight was alright.

Excited for this! *.* I loved Electric Light, but please (I don't think it will be anyway) can it be like anything but Pink Lemonade?

People liked it when it came out

they should have pushed Us with Alicia Keys from the last album,
Pink Lemonade was a 0/10

Pink Lemonade was one of my tracks of 2018, excellent song. Looking forward to more.

Yeah I loved Pink Lemonade!

Looking forward to this... although most of what I've heard of Julia Michaels is dreary

that’s because compared to other James Blegh songs, this one’s SOTY material

poor Julia but desperate times call for desperate measures

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 19th February 2019, 04:00 PM

Desperation on whose part though?

Quite like the sound of this, looking forward to it!

So album 3 is coming? Or its a random single??

Posted by: SLlewellyn 19th February 2019, 06:23 PM

I really hope this can get James back in the charts/back on the radio - the last era was not good for him; even though the quality of the music was great!

Posted by: Cqmerqn 19th February 2019, 07:13 PM

Both James Bay and Julia Michaels really need a hit, so hopefully this does well for them!

Is it just me or does the guitar on this sound like Ellie Goulding’s Close to Me

Posted by: Whoody4Paramore 20th February 2019, 02:54 PM

It's a pretty standard guitar riff, Close to Me was accused of ripping off Pixies' Where is My Mind a few months ago:

Given the success of "Paradise" by George Ezra, I really thought "Pink Lemonade" had what it takes to become a hit, with the right push. Alas it wasn’t meant to be. Really liked the album in the end after not being sure at first.

This is sounding really good - could definitely be a hit with the right promotion!

Posted by: Bjork 21st February 2019, 05:25 PM

sounds promising

I was always amazed his label green-lighted album 2, I would have sent him back to write better songs

Posted by: JosephAvery 22nd February 2019, 01:57 AM

Oh this is absolutely superb Julia's contribution (vocally) is minimal but she harmonises fantastically with James. Can see myself being quite addicted to this

meh I feel like this is gonna get annoying really quickly

Posted by: Whoody4Paramore 23rd February 2019, 05:59 PM

Fantastic track! Good idea to use Julia's voice as backing with James, they sound beautiful together.

Easily one of my fave tracks so far this year

It's all right this, not the best from him.
