This is ridiculous amounts of fun. Ugh. I lowkey hate that I love this as much as I do coz I was so prepared for the opposite (and I would have been fine coz it'd prove that I could be unbiased! Lol)

 

Edit:

 

#5 on iTunes

#1 NMF (until Taylor drops her song I assume)

Instant Hot Hits add

I assume Capital and Radio 1 support right off the bat too...

 

I DON'T WANNA JINX IT BUT THIS LABEL MOVE.. OH MY.

 

They have indeed went to #1 on iTunes much quicker than usual but that's mainly just because sales to get to #1 on iTunes are getting smaller and smaller which is making it much easier for acts with a massive fanbase to get to #1.

 

Everything that you've stated, Syco managed to do that for them too but Syco wouldn't release such basic trash, this is something that would have been an album track during 'DNA' days, I truly hope this underperforms because this is the worst thing by a mile that they've released as a single and I don't see myself having any sort of turn around, it's forgettable and like I previously stated it's such a huge step back in terms of progression.

I genuinely think this is one of their worst singles. Just sounds a bit trashy

It’s not instant like some of their others but it does get better after a few listens.

 

It will do well with the GP

Added to Radio 1 A list

So... Drake is apparently releasing 2 songs tomorrow.

 

It was fun whilst it lasted y'all. :lol:

I think I'm just surprised by RCA's handling of this more than it having anything to do with Syco... I was so nervous about RCA having them coz they don't have the best track record. But I feel like they're doing the right thing by moving on as quickly as possible onto something that label politics can't have a part in and it's just nice and reassuring that they seem invested in them.

 

In terms of the song... I get that it can be seen as a regression by some, but it's a fun, Summer bop. I don't think this is intended for album #6, just a move to get a Summer single out there and to try and get casuals back on board after last era. I'm sure we'll find out if it IS for album 6 soon enough. But I was always under the impression it was a stand alone single? Could be wrong.

This is their worst single since Word Up. The chorus/sample sounds like a pre-chorus and then doesn't go anywhere. It sounds cheap.

 

Absolutely terrible and even more disappointing when compared to anything on LM5.

Fans shouldn't blindly stan every crap song they release lmao

It’s not that crap babe, it’s just not as good as the other songs they’ve released. I personally think it’s better than think about us. My point is, it’s just a fun single.

It's a 6/10. It's fine...it's like cute but it doesn't go anywhere.

It's not their best or worst,its off to a strong chart though.

Is the music video out today??

Except it's not a fun song, it's like Wings and How Ya Doin' having an incestual child. But that's just my opinion ofcourse, we'll never agree on this

It’s new, it may grow on you.

Yeah this is crap :lol:

Its good for what it is but it does feel like such a step back for them whereas LM5 felt like such an evolution. I can see it being a song of theirs I won't go back to much beyond a few weeks.

Taylor Swift just dropped a new song lol

5PM BST the music video drops.

01. Little Mix - Bounce Back 100%

02. Taylor Swift - You Need To Calm Down 73.6%

 

I'm guessing Taylor will go to #1 on iTunes depending on the impact of Little Mix's music video.

It’s new, it may grow on you.

I've hated both Wings and How Ya Doin'. I don't see it happening sis 😌

This is the thing. The public lap this sort of stuff up. Unfortunately LM5 just wasn't connecting with them as much as it was the fans and that was the issue (especially with all the label shit that was going off).

 

This will hopefully connect with the public a lot more and it seems to be doing fine in that sense! So we'll see from here I guess :lol:

Hmmm, well it's passable but I was expecting it to build into more than it actually was.

 

They've definitely released worse singles than this though.
