It’s a good track but her faster disco tracks seem to do better than her slower songs. But how many times have we seen a huge era through a year then a rerelease new track flops the following Jan/Feb!

You can't expect every Dua single ever to be a massive top 5 hit.

Exactly. It's clear We're Good is only here to serve as a little single for the rest of the world to keep the era going while Levitating is still taking its sweet time to peak in America. Of course what they didn't see coming was TikTok giving Levitating such a revival that it may as well be the UK focal single once again. It's had a decent chart run for what it is.

Oh c'mon.

 

It's a brand new fully-fledged single from her during her imperial phase, it even had the video released on the same day as its release date. It's a certified flop.

 

Hopefully her team see it as a sign not to go in this direction for the next era.

To be honest if I were a Dua stan I'd just take the L on this one and accept that the relative underperformance validates the success of her better singles. The exception that proves the rule and all that.
We're Good is a great song and 10 weeks (probably a couple more to come) top 40 is NOT a flop given the limited push and label investment it's had. People who say otherwise are just jealous!

Jealous?

I can’t believe there’s such an argument over one song 😂 it’s a good song I like it, but it’s nowhere near her best which is why it only peaked in the mid 20’s.

I wouldn't say We're Good is a complete flop, to still be top 40 shows it's connected to SOME degree, but it's most definitely an underperformance. It's had a big push here, and I don't think the excuse of it being a single to tide us over while Levitating smashes in the US washes either - We're Good has had a push over there too (#26 on the latest airplay update), it's just getting overshadowed (even before Levitating's TikTok boost).

 

Compare this to Physical, which didn't get a US push at all and was technically a single for the rest of the world to tide us over while Don't Start Now smashed over there, and it really paints a clear picture. Physical still became a big hit here with basically the same push as We're Good, the latter just hasn't been received so warmly.

 

It could have done worse, but it could absolutely have done much better.

A 90s one would be amazing, if almost impossible to compile. So many tracks that I love from that decade... although saying that perhaps a lot didn't reach #1 so maybe it would be quite as difficult as I'm first thinking.

Wrong thread I think!

That'll teach me to rush a comment when I'm not concentrating! Although I'm sure Gezza will pick it up in here :lol:

I mean We’re Good has just become Dua’s sixth top-forty hit in the U.S so clearly it’s done it’s job!!?

 

Some people on here are honestly ‘dua-ing the most’.

With Dua Lipa, whether the song is classed as big or not which is the argument here the whole era in general has been a big success for her. Its only natural that not all releases can be monster hits, but the single has served its purpose, its kept her in the charts and kept the album selling which currently stands the best selling album of the year. My point is I don't think Dua Lipa will be in any worried that it wasn't her biggest hit. All artists at their peaks experience lower charting and selling singles than others especially this far in to the campaign, we all know she has both bigger and smaller hits ahead of her.

Preach :clap:

 

And to say it's had the same push and hype as Physical is... not true. It's had the slowest start on Radio 1 of ALL Dua's singles since Last Dance, it was in the low 20s and 30s on Hot Hits until recently. Physical was instantly A-listed, huge playlisting especially on Apple, pushed with a high concept music video, the iconic workout video and the hype from Don't Start Now and being a pre-album single

 

People are really doing the most, just because they don't like the song. Her label are not bothered because it's done its job in promoting the re-release, otherwise they would have invested and promoted it a lot more than they have.

Was 'We're Good' not Uk airplay number one? radio has instantly supported it, its the low placing on HH on streaming services which is holding it back.

Wrong forum I think? :unsure: :o :lol:

 

Is Save Your Tears going to be reset to SCR?

Almost certainly, but for next week’s chart, meaning that it will have spent its peak week on ACR.
