September 4, 201410 yr I have to say I've only heard it twice and I love it! I gave Summer a 7.5 when I heard it for the first time but this gets a 9 from me!!! Whether it can challenge for next weeks number one I don't know...I love the fact it's not OA/OS and that he's letting the hype build a little before the release but there's nothing out next week that I can see making it to number one. I can see this doing 85-90k+
September 4, 201410 yr I think it will be a good bet for getting the #1 next week. I can't see Prayer In C and all the other contenders doing more than about 40-50k. Walking With Elephants is a good bet for #2 but I can't really see that doing better than Duke this week so maybe around the 50-60k mark. Surely this can do at least 60k+? It will be a very low #1 sales but at least it is something new at the top spot I suppose rather than having a #1 in the 40,000's which would be terrible.
September 4, 201410 yr Am I wrong in thinking this would have been perfectly suited for a Florence vocal? This really just has 'Sweet Nothing' 2.0 written all over it for me. No discredit to Newman tho, this is very good as per usual, maybe a little less 'generic Calvin' than 'Summer', he's been on a roll ever since 'I'm Not Alone' bar 'Drinking from the Bottle' of course. Shaping up to be another smashing record, he can do no wrong.
September 4, 201410 yr This is a great number of miles ahead of 'Summer'. Was getting so sick of Calvin so this is a pleasant surprise.
September 4, 201410 yr Official Audio HJb0VYVtaNc sounding really good :music: far better than the genericfest of Summer
September 4, 201410 yr This is fantastic. Love how its not out say in 6 weeks but this weekend! :D This will be another #1 for Calvin!
September 4, 201410 yr Author It took me a few listens to get into 'Summer' but I did like this on first listen! And I really like it now after repeated listens and that HQ official audio. :D
September 4, 201410 yr This is fantastic. Love how its not out say in 6 weeks but this weekend! :D This will be another #1 for Calvin! I really hope this will be another number one for him, love this song can't believe it's out on Sunday :cheer: Can't wait for the next album!!!!
September 4, 201410 yr Sounds great, bizarrely it's Newman who is the better half on this. Great hook, great vocal.... but that drop is way to subtle. Edited September 4, 201410 yr by ScottyEm
September 4, 201410 yr blegh. aside from Newman obviously BLEHM IT ON THE NAAA-AAAHHH-AAH-AIIGHHHHH :heart:
September 4, 201410 yr I know this is a relatively unpopular opinion but this might be my favorite Calvin single ever :heart: EVERYTHING about this works. Got goosebumps the first time I heard it.
September 6, 201410 yr Heard this today - sounds pretty good. Not sure if it will do as well as summer in terms of total sales but this is likely to be his third number one in a row. Edited September 6, 201410 yr by slowdown73
September 8, 201410 yr This is really growing on me, in a 'Sweet Nothing' kind of way as I wasn't really keen on that at first either.
September 9, 201410 yr Yeah, this has been a lot more instant than Summer for me. It's very Calvin-by-numbers but so long as the music is still good, which this very much is, then that's the main thing. I'm not usually keen on John Newman's vocals but they fit really well within this track and I'm loving the drop now which originally I found a bit quiet and restrained, but it's actually fantastic.
