Posted November 15, 20159 yr I believe this is his attempt at a comeback, in the past 5 years he's gone from despairing about not being cool enough to taking a pill in Ibiza to show Avicii that he's "cool". It bears more than a passing similarity to 'Lean On', but I'm actually really loving this!
January 4, 20169 yr I just heard this on the radio for the first time. I really instantly love it. I listened to the original version and it's so flat in comparison. The tropical House remix really makes the song come alive, and the lyrics are still strikingly poignant in parts. I'd like to see this become a hit, I know it's already doing well on streaming and has had some attention on the dance scene.

January 4, 20169 yr Out of interest, what station? I'd like to know who is supporting it. It was on Kiss listen back from last night :D
January 23, 20169 yr This is goooood <3 SeeB seems like one to watch out for, his 'Stitches' remix is great too.
January 23, 20169 yr This is a brilliant remix :music: love the Avicii shoutout too :kink: Hope it can be a fairly sizeable hit!
January 23, 20169 yr It was on Kiss listen back from last night :D Ah right, good to see it's getting some support, hopefully now it's getting more popular Capital and R1 can start hammering it :heehee: (19 days late oops)
February 20, 20169 yr Author It's ascending rapidly on iTunes, now up to #14. :o Maybe we could be looking at a future potential #1? This has completely amazed me, when I first made this thread I assumed it'd just fall by the wayside and not do anything. It even surprised me when I saw it make a small dent on iTunes and Spotify at the start of the year!
February 21, 20169 yr I heard this for the first time on Friday night at a pre-drinks and I have had it in my head ever since. I have always enjoyed Mike's vocals and thought he had potential to be big with the right material. A brilliant song, so catchy and on-trend. :music: The lyric "i'm a singer who has already blown his shot" is VERY premature.
February 21, 20169 yr I really love this, both versions but I may actually prefer the original a tad.
February 21, 20169 yr The SeeB remix is really good and it's better than the original version, despite the message of the track fits better in the latter. Anyway, I'm glad to see that it's taking off in the UK.
February 23, 20169 yr I want to like this more but it isn't happening right now, the remix doesn't do a great deal for me.
March 5, 20169 yr On MTV, he says "I Took A Plane To Ibiza" so the clean version should be called that instead of "In Ibiza"
March 12, 20169 yr Now completely changed my mind on this (sort of). I LOVE the verses in this, the only thing I'm not all that keen on is the drop but even that's growing. Just realised also how much this sounds like Major Lazer - Lean On/Yall - Hundred Miles. Lastly, that vid has already won the creepiest video of the year award.
March 19, 20169 yr Someone played this in my hostel room in early January and only two of us - me and a Canadian woman - knew what the song was! Amazing to see how quickly it's taken off since then, awesome #1 :)
