May 3, 20187 yr This to me feels like she's trying to prove something. Like, attempting the kind of 'arty' urban a lot of current artists are doing. It doesn't seem mainstream at all to me - just look at the reaction on here. This is so different for her - my point was if she wants to try something more 'arty' with 808s then she can. She doesn't have much to lose. Edited May 3, 20187 yr by blacksquare
May 3, 20187 yr Flopping in the UK already. Single version is only #81 on iTunes. Album version at #42 but likely only down to preorders of the album.

Album pre-orders have no impact on the songs chart. I've only had one play of this so far and it was a total mess. I didn't really have any expectations after the last era was pretty bland beyond a couple of tracks but I had hoped she could at least bring something better :( I'll stick with it and hope it grows.
May 3, 20187 yr In love with the song and the video :wub: she looks really good and the album cover is so beautiful :heart:
May 3, 20187 yr waiT this is the LEAD single and they didn't even bother to fly 2 Chainz and Ty Dolla in for the video? At least Ty Dolla he made a 5 second appearance in Ashanti's new video, which for some reason also had a much bigger budget than THIS. Song is kinda lit tho. edit: it's actually REALLY lit. lemme stream. Edited May 3, 20187 yr by Atonement

May 4, 20187 yr I hope this is a campaign again!! Bionic and Lotus well weren’t bad albums by any means for me but the campaigns both ended so prematurely which is why their chart runs were so quick. The interviews sound promising for this so far any UK promo will do for me! Hopefully a top ten peaking album too or Is that too optimistic :unsure:
May 4, 20187 yr Hard to know what I think about this! :lol: I do like the song, although I can see why others have issues with it and I can definitely understand criticisms of the visual and vibe she's trying to go for. I think it would go down better if she was a new artist and we didn't have a discography full of songs that have the Christina stamp we know and love. I agree with blacksquare that it's exciting when artists have passed their mainstream success and are able to experiment a bit more, but I think this might be too much of a change for people to take, idk.
May 4, 20187 yr Accelerate has grown on me so much, it deserves to be a hit for her! I guess R1 won't touch it though
May 4, 20187 yr So I think Xtina and Louisa Johnson are on the same wavelength right now. This is 100x better than YES.
May 4, 20187 yr Why is music so awful atm? Worst it's been since the trifecta of SHET of 2013 and when everyone wanted to be Adele. Omg Screech always releases when music is awful. She is drawn to it like a banshee!!!

She is drawn to it like a banshee!!! Pink released in 2012 and 2017 though. So typical of you to attempt to make any thread one about her though, keep up the obsession. This is pretty crappy though. The video is cringe and she seems to lack any self awareness. It’s such a shame because she was so untouchable 2002-2007. I was watching videos for Ain’t No Other Man and Candyman yesterday and she really was owning everything back then.

So Screech's eponymous Screech wasn't released in 2013 then with Whine by Whinealake and When I was Your Adele by Bruno Wannabeadeleonmars?? I joined in 13, soooo :lol: She is harbinger of bad music like a banshee. But yah this is also awful Neither Britney nor Christina had the staying power after all. Madonna was right all along even way back then
May 4, 20187 yr I read that every week she'll release a video and Accelerate wasn't the first single it's something just to build hype , anyway I love Accelerate :music:
May 4, 20187 yr The video she posted today ‘Wheres Maria?’ sounded promising. She mentioned that when you start to get comfortable you have to then start again from scratch. Im hoping she’s re establishing herself as a Popstar now especially as she said she wants to show her kids what she does. Please UK promo would just be amazing! :yahoo: She sounds like she wants this album to be a success and she’s the most confident I’ve seen her since Back to Basics.
