2 singles have been released from Radical Optimism era so far. Which do you prefer? Hitdini or Stable Season? And why?

Houdini by a mile, I don't love either though.

Houdini for me. A classic! So much replay value. The synths breakdown at the bridge gets me every time

Both are great but 'Houdini' does have more replay value like Kath says!

I really enjoy 'Training Season' but 'Houdini' does have slightly more replay value for me and the production is better imo

Training season has grown on me a lot since the brit performance so I voted for it

I've been hooked on 'Houdini' from the moment I heard it and it's not gotten slightly old. I think it has an nteresting structure and there's no let up from start to finish, and it builds towards two great parts towards the end (the synth bit and the funky guitar bit)

'Training Season' is fab and it has a belter of a pop chorus (and it's an ear worm), but it doesn't quite have the same lasting replay value for me. To be a bit critical, I feel like the verses could be a bit more refined and they go on a bit too long.

They're both good but Houdini is just on another level for me - it's up there with her biggest hits from Future Nostalgia and still sounds so fresh.

Houdini grew on me so that for now. Though I think if TS had been the lead that might be different

Houdini all the way.

I must say that TS single version is much weaker compared to the Grammy’s performance. I think the intro at Grammy’s gives the song much more energy and substance compared to the single version.
