November 20, 20186 yr I know it's a lot more basic than 'Strip', but I can't help find this a massive bop. The 'I do... think about you' part in the verses is massively infectious. Hope it smashes.
November 20, 20186 yr Author Think About Us is a very safe choice, I can see why it was chosen. There's very little chance that'll flop, though I can't see it being some top 3 smash - it feels very Glory Days Platinum Edition leftover. I'm a little disappointed Strip won't get a full push, because I feel like the fact it was so risky was quite exciting and it had a real chance to be some sort of huge surprise smash, but it's safe to say that it wouldn't be a huge album seller. X Factor on the 2nd, followed by Strictly on the 7th and then Norton the weekend after is some heavy promo, I'm impressed. I wonder if they'll do Think About Us on all 3?
November 20, 20186 yr I think people will get bored of it - 3 weekends in a row. They'll prob do a mix of songs for strictly
November 20, 20186 yr They should 'hopefully' have the video ready for this then. Hope it's big budget like WLM
November 20, 20186 yr I feel like this 'Strip' could have potentially completely derailed the campaign, so this is a more sensible choice.
November 20, 20186 yr Think About Us is nice but it’s generic and so faceless I would much prefer Strip as a single as apart from being a bop it has a good message it’s full of personality and it’s different and not the norm for them .
November 20, 20186 yr nooooooooooo Strip deserved to be the 2nd single :angry: but this is obviously going to smash......
November 20, 20186 yr Oh... really? :( 'Think About Us' is one of the worst songs on the album for me. 'LM5' has pleasingly thrown up quite a lot of exciting moments but this one was totally faceless and throwaway for me, the drop in particular adds nothing. Meh, I was getting on board with 'Strip' as a single choice as well - I'm with Joe in thinking that it would've been exciting to follow its progress as it was a risky choice, plus it's a better song for me anyway. Well... at least there's lots of impending promo to be excited about.
November 20, 20186 yr This is about 5th or 6th on the album for me, it's like a lesser Touch. Undeniably a great pop song but it just doesn't wow me nor does it stand out on the album, would've preferred Strip to have a chance.
November 20, 20186 yr Amazing news! This song is incredible. It has been my favorite one since I first heard the snippets, and the only one that I really love so far on LM5. Really hoping it will be huge and that the video will be as great as the song is!
November 20, 20186 yr This reminds me of a more uptempo No More Sad Songs. :wub: I absolutely ADORE it. It's a great song. Generic? Hell yeah. But I'm really here for this :heart:
November 21, 20186 yr This is a safe choice as the second single but in my opinion they should have gone with Strip, Wasabi, Joan of arc, or the Cure as the next single.
November 21, 20186 yr Glad I'm not the only one who doesn't find this as fantastic as it probably should be. I do really like it, don't get me wrong, but I feel like it's a song we should go crazy for and it's just a little "heard it before but better". I too had come around to the idea of 'Strip' being a single. Really like that one now and it was quite exciting to see them about to push something that wouldn't just be a guaranteed hit. Can see it just remaining a promo single now but maybe they'll push something like 'Joan of Arc' or 'Wasabi' as third or fourth single, you know, after they've had two successful songs and have shifted plenty of albums over Christmas and can afford to be a bit risky.
November 27, 20186 yr Author I wonder when this will be added to Hot Hits...Imagine they didn't put it on before Graham :lol: It would be nice if it had a couple of weeks of climbing on streaming before the performance.
November 27, 20186 yr I hope the video's good. It could help the song greatly, I'm not that fond of it. I mean, I like it, but I don't love it. It's been done before (by them) better.
