November 21, 20223 yr I'd imagine it could sneak one more week top 75 but can also as much drop to like 79 or something too.
November 21, 20223 yr Cover Me in Sunshine (which is a lovely song!) has 329 million streams on Spotify and it was released just last year. She has 26 million monthly listeners. The interest IS there with a good and relatable track. It's all about the material and the context. I think this is a very good and relatable track, so I don't think in this case the issue is the material, or that she'd be peaking a whole lot higher with a different song. We've all been through Covid, and the lockdowns etc, and being stuck indoors, and I relate some of the lyrics to that. e.g. 'we've already wasted enough time'. It's very relatable. I'd say it's poor Spotify etc playlisting, and lack of exposure that she's had before on the likes of Radio 1 etc, that are contributing to this not smashing. The support from the industry has decreased. I think this song is so uplifting and anthemic, I far prefer it to Walk Me Home personally. The chorus is good fun, but for me the verses and the bridge are particularly good musically, the chord changes really make it. I do get the reservation that it sounds a bit like it comes from a kids movie soundtrack, sonically it does have a similar vibe to Can't Stop The Feeling. But that wasn't exactly a problem for Justin.
November 21, 20223 yr I will say it does sound kinda anti-lockdown! Not sure if anyone else heard that and I don't think its necessarily intentional but the lyrics about wasting time and the entire thrust of never not going to dance again suggests that you wouldn't abide by being told not to!
November 22, 20223 yr I’m not sure it’s necessarily anti lockdown as I don’t think Pink was, after all both she and Jamieson were quite rough with Covid at the start. But it’s definitely about appreciating every moment and grabbing life in the moment. It’s like don’t ever turn up the chance to dance ever again, we now know what it’s like to live without it.
November 23, 20223 yr Looks like she has a good chance of 3rd week top 75 as it was 58 in the monday mids.
November 24, 20223 yr I don't think this is really that good, I think there's too many words for one in the main line :lol: bit petty I know. I think it'd sound much better if it was just 'Never Gonna Dance Again' dragging out just dance. I think it would sound better anyway, but then she'd literally have to change up the whole song just to please my pettiness.
November 24, 20223 yr Not only do I agree that that is extremely petty but I also disagree that it would make the song better.
November 25, 20223 yr Not only do I agree that that is extremely petty but I also disagree that it would make the song better. Each to their own. ^_^
November 25, 20223 yr Why does no one talk about her AMA performances? :unsure: Armvb4s6TNU pPtbo5O2iIw
November 25, 20223 yr Well she's not only nabbed another week in the top 75 but also climbed as well in the process, up 3 to 61 this week. That's good for her despite missing top 40. It does make me wonder because she'll get shoved out mainly from Christmas tracks whether she could nab a low top 40 position in Jan? Edited November 25, 20223 yr by Roba!
November 25, 20223 yr Great to see this climb. It could get a new peak post Christmas which would be amazing.
November 25, 20223 yr What a great live performance of NGNDA! You can tell she's not confident on those skates mind!
November 26, 20223 yr The fact this actually climbed with all the Christmas songs to contend with, I wouldn't count this out on potentially being a decent-sized hit!
November 26, 20223 yr Loved both of those AMA performances as posted earlier on thread :wub: I can see this potentially peaking after Christmas but it’s still doing well enough for the time being as it is I’d say ;)
