Looks like this is pretty much confirmed now! They were spotted in the studio together a while back ago, Rita has hinted she had a track on the album and she also just posted a picture with Liam on instagram with #fiftyshadesfreed

So hyped for this, hopefully it's as good as LMLYD/IDWLF <3

From target deluxe to main soundtrack in one movie!!! The power of her revival *.*

Although can we pls boot Liam Payne :/

Posted by: dancember 20th December 2017, 09:25 PM

Rita Ora

Liam Payne

Coming soon as the single for Fifty Shades Freed, confirmed on social media!! (unsure of what the credit will be but I'll edit when we know more)

Posted by: Sqntq Clqus 20th December 2017, 09:27 PM

Hype!

Posted by: Juan Carlos 🌴 20th December 2017, 09:36 PM

I think it's a joint release. Liam posted the same pic with the same hashtag on Instagram.

Posted by: Mistletheo 20th December 2017, 10:03 PM

I would be more hyped for this with a better guest/joint lead vocalist on the song. I can't imagine Rita on one of Fifty Shades's soppy 21st century 'power' ballads' tho...

Posted by: lewistgreen 20th December 2017, 10:16 PM

Nice that she's doing a song for the film considering her appearances in the series are very minor

Posted by: CodySleighBell-y 20th December 2017, 10:24 PM

I’m pretty sure it will be in the same order as I Don’t Wanna Live Forever

Posted by: TMD_24Quavo 21st December 2017, 10:57 AM

Co-written by Andrew Watt.

Posted by: Juan Carlos 🌴 21st December 2017, 09:34 PM

It's called "For You" and it will be released in January.

The credits (Liam Payne & Rita Ora) are correct.

Posted by: ►▲NT▲ CL▲ 21st December 2017, 09:36 PM

Liam Payne credited first so no doubt he'll get most of the song, dammit.

Posted by: JosephCarey 21st December 2017, 09:45 PM

I'd expect it to be more of a duet tbh, equally shared!

Posted by: Court 21st December 2017, 11:38 PM

Liam is probably credited first because he’s the bigger artist in the movies primary artist or just because it’s alphabetical or just because they thought it sounded better, who knows. The snippet sounds kind of epic. Obviously it’s just a little clip but Andrew Watt has had a pretty good year writing hits so I’m looking forward to it.

Posted by: ChristmasTreeCow 22nd December 2017, 07:22 PM

I want to be excited for this but Liam????

Posted by: Theo. 3rd January 2018, 06:57 PM

So this is apparently coming out on Friday! Pls can this thread be moved back to Pop where it will generate more discussion with general pop fans? x

Posted by: Rooney 3rd January 2018, 07:24 PM

There should be two topics - one here and one in the general forums.

Posted by: JosephStyles 3rd January 2018, 07:53 PM

^ the pop forum thread was moved here, I assume that was a decision made by the pop mods. I'll post advertising it in the pinned thread they have so people know where to come. The Zayn/Taylor thread was here (before Taylor got her forum of course) so it makes sense for consistency too.

Excited to hear this, I hope it's better than IDWLF was!

Posted by: UltraReputation 3rd January 2018, 07:58 PM

We didn't move the thread here so I'm not sure who did then cos we wanted a thread of this in pop! 😂❤️

Posted by: Court 3rd January 2018, 08:15 PM

Snippet just posted on twitter. Sounds like a huge bop.

That sounds incredible!! Ready for this <3

Posted by: Theo. 3rd January 2018, 08:33 PM

Yeah the clip that Rita posted makes it sound like much more of a banger than I could have ever imagined! Glad the Fifty Shades brand have gone for something different for them.

Posted by: lotita's #1 stan 4th January 2018, 08:34 AM

Omg it sounds like a song you’d hear at a Year 6 disco.

Posted by: UltraReputation 4th January 2018, 06:10 PM

This is incredible!! <3 love the chorus and both Rita and Liam sound fab on this *.*

I'm surprised Rita isn't credited first though, she's on it a lot more than Liam is!

Posted by: lotita. 4th January 2018, 06:13 PM

this is a BOP

Posted by: Court 4th January 2018, 06:20 PM

Yeah, this is incredible. Hoping it can challenge for #1 at some point cause it deserves.

Posted by: Cameron 4th January 2018, 08:34 PM

Mess, I moved the thread here because it is what I've always done if a lead artist has an AF

HOWEVER

f***. Me, Up. this is gold.

Posted by: burbe 4th January 2018, 08:55 PM

This is AMAZING! Rita is churning out smash after smash atm!!!

Posted by: mdh 4th January 2018, 08:59 PM

where are we finding this sm1 link me xx

Posted by: Jonjo 4th January 2018, 09:54 PM

Love love L O V E this.

Posted by: JosephStyles 4th January 2018, 10:05 PM

First impressions are v positive, Rita obviously steals the show but they work very well together, much better than IDWLF!

Posted by: Atonement 5th January 2018, 09:21 AM

Oh wow I really don't like this .

Posted by: Cremey 5th January 2018, 09:32 AM

Liam’s voice is so pathetically thin on this. Rita sounds great as always though.
Not mad on it on first listen, it’s alright 🤷🏼‍♂️

Posted by: JosephStyles 5th January 2018, 06:05 PM

#2 on iTunes!

Posted by: Jay ☆ 6th January 2018, 08:40 PM

This is great, I'm so pleased to see it at #1 on UK iTunes! Liam's contribution is rather minimal though.

Posted by: JosephStyles 10th January 2018, 10:14 PM

Doesn't look like it's coming for a top 10 debut this week annoyingly, down to #10 in the mids today

Posted by: Court 10th January 2018, 11:15 PM

It still seems to me like there’s some iTunes data missing. But if not, it’s a shame especially since it was topping iTunes for half the week and almost certainly would’ve had the streams to stay Top 10, maybe even Top 5, had it been immediately added to Hot Hits UK like the other new releases. I’m sure it will make the top 10 eventually though.

Posted by: JosephSivan 14th January 2018, 01:20 AM

An #11 debut, how annoying! It'll go top 10 eventually anyway but I was hoping for a rare top 10 debut. Ah well, still Liam's second highest peaking track to date!

Posted by: lewistgreen 26th January 2018, 10:02 PM

Posted by: JosephSivan 28th January 2018, 05:02 PM

Approaching the top 10 again on iTunes, a good effect!!

Posted by: JosephSivan 8th February 2018, 11:04 AM

Steady in the iTunes top 10 again, it just needs streaming to pick up Hopefully the soundtrack + film release will catapult it up!

Posted by: Court 8th February 2018, 08:38 PM

It’s up to #3 on WW iTunes now. The release of the music video really helped and now that the movie is nearing closer it seems to have really picked up, especially in Europe. I’m really hoping for a UK iTunes discount tonight to help make up for the low streaming (although it is at least picking up a little bit, still situated down near the middle of Hot Hits UK).

Posted by: JosephSprayberry 9th February 2018, 10:47 PM

#3 on UK iTunes and #1 on worldwide iTunes!!

Posted by: JosephSprayberry 10th February 2018, 10:11 PM

This has a CD single out in Germany! Capital Letters by Hailee is the b-side

Posted by: JosephSprayberry 19th February 2018, 09:35 PM

Liam's confirmed to be performing with Rita at the BRITs on Wednesday, so it's guaranteed this will be performed!

Posted by: Court 19th February 2018, 11:19 PM

Hopefully the Brits can boost the song into the Top 5
