August 13, 20159 yr Glow killed the entire era. To follow up a huge #1 with a just-top 10 and its a weak song.
August 13, 20159 yr Author I don't know, I'm not sure any song could've avoided being overshadowed by Ghost. Glow was a strong enough single for me, I don't think anything else would've done a better job except maybe Empire.
August 13, 20159 yr Glow killed the entire era. To follow up a huge #1 with a just-top 10 and its a weak song. Ghost was a once in a career hit, it's pretty hard to follow that up! I think Glow did really well as it did (considering Ghost was still pretty big when it was released).
August 13, 20159 yr She should have performed Missed on the X Factor live shows. Bringing it right back to where she started but now with full stardom & because it's a fantastic ballad that would have translated so well with a big production.
August 13, 20159 yr Honestly I think Dan is right here, it says a *lot* that 'Yours' outsold 'Glow'. But it's a question of whether she had anything better than 'Glow' to launch the album with really.
August 13, 20159 yr Empire was the most obvious single choice and it has remained unreleased, which is quite surprising.
August 14, 20159 yr I guess Empire is quite similar to Ghost... but TBH Ghost was still pretty huge when Glow came out, so they could have just launched the album on Yours and made it a late August/early Summer release... or Missed. I dunno.
August 14, 20159 yr They did something right seeing as she's one of the most successful acts from X Factor in years. Outselling the winner from her year and the year after with this era. Some missed singles but I like when albums have those in a way. Even if there are 2 blatant hits on this one. Can't wait for more from her.
August 14, 20159 yr Empire definitely should've been released. I didn't think it was this well liked on Buzzjack.
August 15, 20159 yr Empire was the logical second single, I wouldn't have even minded Rockets or Pieces instead of Glow, I think both would have done better. Glow is so meh to me. EDIT: Missed as third single? Haha! Edited August 15, 20159 yr by Juliano
August 15, 20159 yr Missed would've served better as a promotional single than an actual one. I don't think it would've done anything chart-wise. I think the single choices were all on point (except that Empire should've been released as the final single but it's understandable why they decided to end the campaign a little early with the whole underperformance of Mirror Man).
October 27, 20159 yr Empire, Missed & Pieces should have all been singles. Two nights in London is very exciting :wub:
