September 23, 20177 yr Definitely wouldn't have that as high as #6, but glad it didn't bother the top 5 at all!
September 24, 20177 yr I know it’s not the “best” song in the bunch but I’d rather listen to Strip That Down than any other song on the list because it’s just fun. It’s an ear worm and it grows on you unlike most of the slow melancholy songs the other boys are putting out. It makes sense that it snuck it’s way so high in this rate in the same way that it became pretty much the most successful out of all the debuts, after Pillowtalk.

September 25, 20177 yr Author -HjpL-Ns6_A #5: Louis Tomlinson - Back to You (Feat Bebe Rexha and Digital Farm Animals) 6.64 Making it into the top 5 by the skin of is teeth (Still nothing over a 7 average!) is Louis' with his latest and most recent hit 'Back To You', which is a Skype-ringtone jam where Bebe shines arguably more than Louis himself. It was his second top 10 hit as a solo artist, peaking lower than his previous single at #8 but will probably eventually outsell that.
September 25, 20177 yr I really liked Back to You at first, but unfortunately it grew old quite fast. Bebe definitely lifts the track; if it was just Louis it really would just plod along - so definitely a smart move to collaborate. Liam’s debut was a bit of a let down for me. A listenable enough basic bop but I’m sure he’s capable of better stuff - we’ll see.
September 25, 20177 yr Adore Back to You, comfortably my second favourite of their solo singles so far!
September 25, 20177 yr Yeah, I agree with Jay that if it had just been Louis himself, the track would seem a bit lifeless. I like it, but it's by no means one of my favourites of the solo material. Thinking Harry will come out on top now... :unsure:
September 25, 20177 yr Lol at "Cruel" in the top five. I'd love for "Pillowtalk" to win but it doesn't look like there's many fans of it/Zayn's music in general judging by the reductive placings for "Like I Would" and "Still Got Time" x I think "Slow Hands" will win.
September 26, 20177 yr Author z0GKGpObgPY #4: Harry Styles - Sign of the Times 7.08 Finally a song with a 7+ average! Here we have one of this year's UK #1s, 'Sign of the Times', which as soon as it was released, created a huge buzz and excitement, everyone was curious to hear One Direction's most famous member's first solo material, with SOTT flying up to #1 on iTunes and also storming Spotify. Critically and among fans it was a fairly mixed reception, but it's clearly well liked on Buzzjack, receiving one of the highest scores.
September 26, 20177 yr Some of the scores for SOTT felt exceedingly harsh so I'm not shocked at that finish, but I'm disappointed. Deserves much better. Predicting Slow Hands to win, followed by PILLOWTALK 2nd and Cruel 3rd.
September 26, 20177 yr :o Shame about that, as Sign of the Times is brilliant. Rooting for PILLOWTALK now, but yeah think Slow Hands will edge it.
September 27, 20177 yr Author WfqDSnCkaro #3: Zayn - Cruel (Featured on Snakehips) 7.37 Snakehips and Zayn seem to have dark horse'd there way to the top 3 quite unexpectedly, no complaints though, it's a great song and I wish it'd done at least slightly better chart-wise! Maurice isn't a fan though, giving this a 1. So it's Pillowtalk V Slow Hands. Which would you prefer won?
September 27, 20177 yr I imagine Slow Hands will win as Pillowtalk got a couple of -1s if memory serves me right.
