Watch this quickly become a buzz single with a more uptempo dance banger rush released as the main single to try and get the era back on track.

I can actually see that happening.

Added to Radio 1's C List today.

#62 in sales :o

 

Is this the biggest comeback flop like...ever?

I heard this and found it so forgettable I thought it was a buzz (killer?) track. And I’ve always liked Jess’s music, and especially enjoyed her debut album.

 

I expected her to ease herself back in with a dance feature and build from there.

Wow... Fully expected this to miss the Official Charts as I assumed streaming wouldn't be kind to her... but a week Top 40 on Sales should have been possible.

 

Amazed that R1 have play-listed it.

Nice remix! :music:

I don’t think I’ve seen such an epic flop - I’m not even talking about the (lack of) single success, it just literally feels like nobody is talking about her or cares in the slightest that she is back?

 

Even though she was never a BJ fave she had so many hits and decent album sales but it seems like she’s retained exactly zero of her fanbase?

 

3 minutes in and she tries to get the crowd involved and singing and they couldn't have cared less. I can't deal with the awkwardness :rofl:

she's literally gonna bin herself

 

You camled it tbh!!

 

I didn't even know she had released anythinf :lol:

 

Bet it's radio pop

What a awkward live performance :huh:

 

I’m a bit surprised at just how badly this has done. I mean I wasn’t expecting it to be a #1 but I did think it might’ve spent sometime in the lower top 40 region. The next track she chooses to release will be the real make or break one for her maybe she might need to rely on features for hits but it feels like support / interest has just completely dropped.

 

I suspect the album release might be quite a while off yet whilst they try and get some sort of successful single or two to launch the album off I’d be surprised if the album drops in 2023 though.

Guess the record company was right after all!

 

Biggest flop since Furtado and Katy!

I am genuinely confused as to how this didn’t even chart.

 

I know there is a known thing about female singers being deserted but surely someone with this many number one singles could at least go top 40 on return?!

She needed a stronger release to do that I think. This just sounds like some album leftover of hers.

Nice remix! :music:

 

 

That they gave a remix a "visualiser" shows me that they know how limp the original is.

the biggest flop and you cannot even blame the lack of radio support

I don't think she has ever had a proper fanbase sadly. I would assume Becky Hill and Ella Henderson would be in danger of something similar if they decided to have a 3-year break and tried to return with a mediocre SOLO single.

It seems that Jess left it way too long to return. Bearing in mind that her last huge hit single went to #3 in November 2018 (that was 'Thursday', the third single from her second album). She did have a #3 in December 2020 with 'This Christmas', but we know that was thanks to Alexa scammery and not a specific interest in Jess Glynne... :kink:

 

Still, the decay in chart success is pretty extraordinary to see. Having #1s and Top 10s from her first and second albums, while her (possible) third album era begins with a single that isn't coming close to bothering the Top 100. 'Silly Me' only reached #56 in the download chart and #62 in the sales chart (on 5th May), and it hasn't been Top 100 in those charts since then. No sign of it in the iTunes Top 200 since Radio 1's Big Weekend.

If she keeps this up I might have to update my signature!
