I went for 'Birthday', it'd start getting a push around May time, I assume, just leading into summer and I think it'd be perfect for that sort of time. It's all fun and joyous and probably my favourite of the non-singles left now.
Walking On Air is perfect for the summer with Legendary Lovers as the 5th single
Walking on Air, though I think International Smile would make a great summer single.
I fail to see why people suggest 'Legendary Lovers', it has nothing catchy about it at all.

Well imo it's very good and i've seen lots of love for it in other places

'Legendary Lovers' really does need to be the next single (although just being *a* single would be good enough) :wub:

 

I can see her plumping for the obvious choice and selecting 'Walking on Air' though.

Surely 'Birthday' would be the obvious choice given it's the most similar to what we had in the last two eras? (and i'm sure i've seen that it's already a single in places :unsure:)

 

'Walking On Air' is a delight, slightly different to what she's done in the past and radio would eat it up like crazy.

YES, I would take anything except this. To my ears it doesn't sound as 'obvious hit' as some of the others.

 

Voted for "Birthday".

Walking On Air is a smash waiting to happen. Birthday will be unconditionally part 2 chart wise

I think it could go either way, it's definitely not as immediately catchy as a Katy Perry song would normally be, but I do think it's distinctive enough that it would catch people's attention.

 

I want 'Birthday' for the 4th single (I may have mentioned that once or 50 times before in this forum), although 'This Is How We Do' would probably do quite well as a summer single too. I still maintain 'Walking on Air' would be a bad choice -- for one thing, pop-dance has pretty much gone out of fashion (although sonically WOA is maybe closer to traditional house than the Flo Rida-style electropop monstrosities of the past few years), it has that plain lazy chorus of repeating the same line over and over again, and no discernible subject matter of any kind. Her songs are never lyrical masterpieces by any means, but atleast they're usually vaguely about something!

Completely agree about 'Legendary Lovers'. But with 'Walking On Air' i wouldn't say it's in the same vein as any pop-dance of the past few years, at least none that immediately comes to mind. It throws back to much earlier 90's dance which makes for a refreshing listen now.

 

It's the most feel-good & joyous song on the album, and certainly doesn't need to be lyrically complex to achieve that. Sometimes less is more.

I'd say 'Walking On Air' is about something, the lyrics are clearly dirty and sexual. I know what she's talking about when I'm listening to it anyway. :lol:

 

I didn't like it at first but it is so so catchy, and a potential huge anthem in the waiting. I love the 90s vibe of it.

'Birthday' next and then 'Walking On Air' at the end of summer please.

'Walking On Air' or nothing please!

 

STILL not getting why people think 'Birthday' would be a hit though. But meh, she can make anything that isn't a ballad work well for her, so who knows! :lol:

TBH I think "Unconditionally" would work as a single. I mean it was painfully obvious from the initial release of "Dark Horse" as a promo single that it should've been single two, but I think her label made the same mistake that RCA did with Christina during "Back To Basics" and pushing for a ballad single in the holiday season rather than a legit hit single. I reckon "Unconditionally" would fare better if re-released.

 

PS "Walking On Air" HAS to be a single at some point however if "Legendary Lovers" is going to be a single, and "Birthday" looks likely to be the next single, so...

Walking On Air for sure, followed by Double Rainbow/By The Grace of God for the fifth or final single
