Posted February 9, 201510 yr Finally Ella Henderson's fantastic song 'Empire' is getting a single release as the third single in Australia and New Zealand. This will coincide with the song being used in a TV advert over there for Downton Abbey according to this source. It's definitely the strongest track on the album not yet a single so I'm glad it is becoming one. Hopefully it is a sign it will be the 5th UK single, hopefully coinciding with a Britain's Got Talent performance in May/June! PuGX3tArKxQ
February 10, 201510 yr As always super excited to see what the music video will be like! :D ( Please don't do a Paloma and don't have one :( )
February 10, 201510 yr Pleased for this. Empire was the critics favourite from her first Showcase, and a fans favourite since, a mystery why they didn't go with it earlier. No mention of video for it, so I guess for now it's just going off the back of the Downton promo...

I think "Yours" had a more winter-esque and seasonal feel to it so by the time single three was ready it was the most suitable option :P
February 10, 201510 yr I think "Yours" had a more winter-esque and seasonal feel to it so by the time single three was ready it was the most suitable option :P Yep don't disagree with that. But I would have gone with Empire for single #4 in the UK. But at this point they seem pretty chilled about releases, I guess they feel the album has done its job. The next big release IMHO is likely to be a collab, maybe with Pharrell if the hype is to be believed! Edited February 10, 201510 yr by JimmyT

Hes obsessed with Glow so re-release with him featuring so the song can actually do as well as it should have. #JusticeForGlow :wub:
February 10, 201510 yr Great choice, really like the singles she's picked so far, although Glow hasn't quite grown on me yet, but Empire is great and also upcoming single Mirror Man should hopefully do well and go top 10.
February 11, 201510 yr HAs this actually been confirmed anywhere else? How reliable is that site? the fact they are able to name every australian record label accurately in connedction / the featured vocalist on that avicii track / have nothing to gain through posting lies as they are a reputable australian radio station
February 11, 201510 yr HAs this actually been confirmed anywhere else? How reliable is that site? Its was added to Australian radio last week! Its been floating around #60 on itunes the past 4/5 days. I do know Ella was filming a video at the start of this month for something.. it may have been for Empire.. it may not :P Ella's Insta > http://instagram.com/p/ym_ILnE5ia/?modal=true A guy stumbled across filming > https://twitter.com/JonathanKirkby/status/562377507408990208 i guess we shall wait and see...
February 11, 201510 yr oh so that is why there were all those trucks full of wire and beige nobody ppl everywhere a week or so ago; normally it's mr selfridge filming! :kink:
February 12, 201510 yr I just played this for the first time and instantly it struck me as by far her best song since Ghost. They're idiots for sitting on it this long and releasing that insipid crap Yours instead.
February 12, 201510 yr #44 so far in Australia solely off the back of the Downton adverts... She'll get pressure to go over there soon..as well as Mirror Man UK and the U.S. TV she's booked on, busy Lady... Oh and the Brits for some light relief.. Tho she won't win anything...
