Friday at 19:041 day Ooh I expected this to be an easy top 10 its arguable the best or at least joint best on the deluxe for me The way the crowd popped of for when it was used as background music between the warm up acts and them at both the Jade and Leigh-Anne concerts youd of thought she was performing it herselfIts gonna be a massive moment when / if she performs it somewhere
Friday at 19:081 day It's a very solid track!She said she initially envisaged Kylie being on this even she first started making it, I'm intrigued to see how she would've fit.
Friday at 22:181 day Use Me is quite nice and u think it’s grown on me even more since I rated it a few weeks back.
Friday at 22:241 day Been so obsessed with Use Me the last few weeks id quite easily swapped it for whatever my 11 was at the time of my rate 🤣
Friday at 23:441 day Author 11: Unconditional [8.47] (Two 11's)THAT'S SHOWBIZ BABY!: blacksquare & RyanFM (11); Scene, Juranamo & starbaker (10)THAT'S NOT SHOWBIZ HUN!: shadow2009 (02)Just missing out on a top 10 placing is the "was it or wasn't it a single"... 'Unconditional'! This was released less than a day before the album to drum up some last minute hype for the album and it's such a loud, chaotic but brash and bold song. Taking influence from disco and motown but also throwing in some mid-00's indie rock right into the mix. One of those songs where the message of the song is actually insanely personable (it's about her mum being diagnosed with chronic lupus and how Jade has to navigate the showbiz life with helping and supporting her mum) but the production would have you believe differently and it really, really works! It strikes me as something Girls Aloud may have been bold enough to have released at some point! The heavy rock bit is very The Gossip - Standing In The Way of Control. It's a great song and deserved a bigger/more consistent push as a single. They seemed to halt it when they saw 'Before You Break My Heart' starting to take off... to which they even screwed up that and didn't capitalise quick enough!

Friday at 23:531 day I'll be honest hated unconditional at first but it really grew on me over time shame its release was so jumbled up but it continued her streak of 7 out of 7 top 100s up to that point 🙌
Friday at 23:571 day It's a great track, I like the raucous energy and those frantic Standing in the Way Of Control-esque drums.
Yesterday at 07:581 day Shadow2009 always having the lowest rating the last few songs, does she even go here?!
Yesterday at 08:051 day 'Unconditional' being my #2 song of last year (sandwiched between two other songs here) says it all about my thoughts on it. It was VERY close to getting my 11.Gutted to see it stall just outside the Top 10, but at least my 11 made it! Such a high quality album so some amazing tracks are bound to miss out!
Yesterday at 08:131 day ROBBED Blending Gossip and Metronomy inspo into a stitched-together pop song that somehow works in a way peak Xenomania would have come up with? Yes
20 hours ago20 hr Author 10: Church [8.56]THAT'S SHOWBIZ BABY!: ChrisJK (11); HenessyLake, 777666jason, Juranamo, Calum shadow2009 & Tafty (10)THAT'S NOT SHOWBIZ HUN!: Josh! (05) & Billy (05.5)Entering the top 10 now and we kick it off with 'Church'! Yes, I gave 'Glitch' my "11" (and I stand by it as it's insanely underrated), but this was my favourite song of the year. It's big, brash and bold (a common theme!) and it's also a love letter to her fans, specifically the LGBTQ+ community and how she will be the safe place for everyone for as long as they need her to be. The video is absolutely INSANE! So, so, SO good. Like 'The Witch' meets 'Midsommar'! I love the melody of the hook and how we got a KEY CHANGE for the final chorus! Something that seems to be a bit of a lost art nowadays. </3 The 'M.A.S.S' version is STUNNING and breathtaking too. HER VOCALS! WHEW and then ofc... the Graham Norton performance?? HELLO??? Ugh. I love this song so much!
19 hours ago19 hr Church is amazing. Probably around where I expected it to finish, though wouldn’t have been shocked if it had ended up top 5 either. JADE really should’ve announced some Church physicals during a quiet week in January just to give it a top 100 placing but oh well. 🥲
19 hours ago19 hr Church is just a phenomenal track , just so so frustrating she released it in December when the public dont care about anything not christmas musicYes she said she doesnt care it didnt chart bit it still doesnt deserve to of not gone top 100 either The M.A.S.S is just so raw too top 10 is still great here it should of been at least 3 spots higher though
18 hours ago18 hr 'Church' is good, 10th feels fair enough as a couple of the lyrics do irk me slightly.
15 hours ago15 hr I quite like Unconditional but I’m not sure if I’d actually place it in my top 10. I enjoyed it more when the album was released than I do now.
