September 22Sep 22 Yeah would really love for her to get a second number 1 and this song so deserves it! Hopefully it’ll stick around
September 23Sep 23 This took me a couple more listens than others to truly hit but it’s definitely clicked with me now. I think someone touched upon it in another thread but it really makes a difference hearing a song with actual instruments in them. The production in the chorus really reminds me of an advert and I can’t put my finger on what. Something to do with betting or sports.
September 23Sep 23 ^ quite possibly but I just know the advert team at Boots pricked their ears up in sync after hearing this.I can’t get this out of my head, I’m annoying my boyfriend by ticking “I would like a ring, I would like a ring” every 5 seconds. It’s a very wordy and chaotic song but yet full of hooks, superb production, well written. Feels like an instant classic to me.
September 23Sep 23 Yes I can see the Boots reference! 🤣I think it’s the Sky Vegas advert which in reality doesn’t actually sound anything like this, just whatever I was recalling in my head!
September 23Sep 23 It is simultaneously VERY 00s and even a bit late 10s but definitely in a way that feels nostalgic and like a homage instead of being reductive or trying too hard. It definitely evokes memories but of nothing in particular, it’s a real sweet spot that is just a great pop song.
September 23Sep 23 Also shades of Confident by Demi Lovato aside from the obvious 00s reference points of Mark Ronson/Christina Aguilera/Amy Winehouse.I've had it on repeat, it's great and deserves a good chart run.X Factor wishes it could come back to rinse this song as a soundbed.
September 23Sep 23 Presale for her your went live today! Got tickets for London! Cannot wait to see her again, she truly is a phenomenal live performer, 4 years running I’ll have seen her now!
September 23Sep 23 This is cool!Pleased that everything she achieved last time around has set her up for an easy top 5 debut.
September 23Sep 23 I want it to be number 1 so badly!It’s been in my head constantly even struggling to sleep as it’s been in repeat as I try to nod off 😂

September 24Sep 24 Am I the only one who is reminded of Don't Leave Me This Way by Thelma Houston when Raye sings "babyyyy"? 🤭
September 24Sep 24 Heard this on the radio today and I think I am on board with it but I can't help but feel the vocal mix is a little bit off which spoils it from being an instant big fave for me hmm (I see a number of people on Reddit commenting on this as well so I'm not just making it up). Hopefully I'll just get used to it and bop along. xThat niggle aside I definitely think it sounds like a big hit so not surprised it's doing so well off the bat! I certainly prefer it over 'Man I Need' so rooting for it to challenge that in this sudden chart battle of the British pop soul ladies x
September 25Sep 25 It has so much more life and uniqueness compared to Man I Need which is pleasant to listen to but rather bland and generic. The second does tend to go num 1 more then the first though

Friday at 23:474 days Great performance on Graham Norton tonight - did not know it was her granny speaking at the end of the song!
Saturday at 11:023 days I love this song and I'm glad that RAYE has been getting the recognition she deserves.'WHERE IS MY HUSBAND!' is a song that artists like Amy Winehouse would have been proud of. Edited Saturday at 11:203 days by montyj
Monday at 08:561 day Definitely hearing some of the references made in this thread but the song it instantly reminded me of was Amerie's - 1 Thing.It's... ok. Not mad about the rushed vocals, it's certainly no Escapsim.
