It's hard going from a group to being a solo artist. I mean, there is no Jade to answer the difficult/awkward questions, etc.

I'm just baffled that Perrie is not releasing singles that showcase her powerful vocals. It shouldn't matter what is on trend; discover what you're good at and showcase it and it will sell. Power ballad Perrie, power VOCAL ballad!!

It doesn't even have to be power ballads how great would she sound on something like Castles or Weekends by Freya Ridings. That is the sort of sound I thought she would go for and if she got it right she could have kept the gay hardcores onboard but also added a more adult contemporary audience.

Still no video…

Ends up at 69 today. Oops. Didn't think it'd chart that low ngl.

Not a great result at all but at least she got a 2nd top 75 out of it.

Poor bean.

 

I think that's it for her now sadly.

On the plus side, we might get our reunion sooner than we thought 😂

Agree, can’t see her recovering from a 10-69 opening as a solo artist - she might bag a few hits as a feature but nobody is here for solo Perrie it seems.

This is actually growing on me!

 

But yeah, we're never getting that album :lol:

That’s all folks.

 

Please Jade, don’t let us down.

I never would have predicted Leigh to do better than Perrie with the 2nd single. Leigh went top 40 at least!

 

Again I just blame the material for Perrie flopping. She is really popular and has insane talent and there was some genuine buzz when she started previewing Forget About Us on Tik Tok but the songs are just so f***ing boring.

 

Something like Secret Love Song or No Time For Tears/Heartbreak Anthem would have been an easy smash for her.

Those Tears physical sales are crazy to me!! I expected so much more.

 

The music video is out tomorrow.

Still think this needs a house-y single remix.

Now you're talking! Scene needs to become Perrie's new manager please!

This is just not grabbing me :( I have rarely been back to it. I don’t skip it when it’s on, but I really don’t care for it enough to go out of my way to listen to it either.

 

I also think they rush released it. It just kinda came (and seemingly gone already) out of the blue. Her team is awful.

Wardy. :lol: It will be interesting to see what her/her team’s reaction is to this bombing - will it be flogging a dead horse or swiftly moving on to single 3?..

Music video:

 

Oh wow, it giving me Holiday music video vibes and not in a good way :(

 

The green screen and everything just seemed cheap, you could see all the outlines of the people?

 

I like that she was going for something different, the part where she's walking in the street didn't really focus on her much at all either?
