September 14, 20177 yr Author 07. Begging - 7.94 10 ~ MrLoverboy 06 ~ blacksquare, Dexton, THEO. -sf44_qbdmo With a pretty solid average of just under 8 it's the final album track which hasn't been released as a single! Begging is an absolute banger and has in fact grown on me even more since doing the rate to become an absolute fave from the album. In hindsight I'd have given it that extra point for a 10. I'd be more than happy to see this become her next single and smash the charts as New Rules has <3 It very surprisingly received just one 10 but got a huge number of 9s - hence it's made it this high!
September 16, 20177 yr Author 06. Scared To Be Lonely - 8.50 11 ~ BridgeCow, Tyler 02 ~ MrLoverboy e2vBLd5Egnk It's quite a score jump up to "Scared To Be Lonely" from "Begging", as it becomes the song with the best 'highest' scores so far of two 11s as well as a raft of 10s. It's so far only the second song to receive an 11 on the countdown! Her huge Martin Garrix collab was a big worldwide hit and deservedly so. It's certainly one of his best, if not his best and did a great job of exposing Dua to the general public across the world. Dua sounds incredible on it and it's easy to see why it's such a fave with so many people! It's also officially now Buzzjack's favourite of the three Dua collabs.
September 16, 20177 yr I can't, I'm done. "Scared" should be top TWO. If "Blow Your Mind" finishes top three, ugh.
September 17, 20177 yr I can't stand 'Scared to be Lonely', but mainly because I vehemently despise that type of music. Dua herself did fine on it.
September 17, 20177 yr Author 05. Blow Your Mind (Mwah) - 8.85 11 ~ PeteFromLeeds, JosephStyles 04 ~ Jade 1nydxbGhgv8 Another jump up in average into the top 5 with Dua's 4th single! This poor flop deserved so much better in the charts - it's easily up here in her best few tracks and it still feels sore that the general public snubbed it. Really glad to see it in the top 5 on here in what is a very solid top 5 too and not far off a 9 average! In spite of its underwhelming chart performance, it's racked up a solid 88m views on YouTube. Truly the queen of streaming!
September 17, 20177 yr Ohhhhh, a bop! Really like this, I feel if she's release it post-New Rules/Be The One since she became a bigger name, it would have been a much bigger hit.
September 17, 20177 yr Good. It's a nice song but it feels far too much like a song designed for a makeup advert and feels like a much lesser "Hotter Than Hell". Please: 1. "New Rules" 2. "Hotter Than Hell" 3. "Be The One" 4. "Last Dance" Thank you, THEO. x
September 18, 20177 yr I'd switch Hotter than Hell and BTO and that'd be my preferred order but really with averages close to or over 9 it doesn't make TOO much difference. Obv New Rules should and will slay tho
September 18, 20177 yr Want: New Rules Be The One Hotter Than Hell Last Dance all amazing. I think 2 and 3 will be switched though.
September 18, 20177 yr I want: 1) New Rules 2) Be The One 3) Hotter Than Hell 4) Last Dance I think: 1) New Rules 2) Hotter Than Hell 3) Be The One 4) Last Dance
September 18, 20177 yr There's no way New Rules won't be #1 :wub: Probably with an average of like 10.75 or something too :lol:
September 18, 20177 yr Author 04. Last Dance - 8.88 11 ~ Jade, John-James, Juan Carlos 04 ~ Mr Loverboy lwZqbQL4H4Q Marginally finishing ahead of "Blow Your Mind (Mwah)" is Dua's third single "Last Dance"! Poor "Last Dance" really flopped hard as it was released before her breakthrough with "Hotter Than Hell" and it's a firm favourite on the forum with the majority of members wanting it re-released as the next single in the Single 8 poll (although it looks like that isn't happening). I really love Last Dance and would welcome a re-release to see it gain its rightful success it deserves. As overall Dua faves go, the remaining three are all better so it's the right time for it to go out!
