I don't think she'll release another UK single off the album. The next will probs be a song she has written with Danny O'Donaghue. Shame about Empire, the one that got away.....

This isn't in the top 1000 in the UK! Surprised it has done that badly here, given the Queen link and I always thought he had some hardcore fans here who would multi buy. Update.. It is available on preorder, but release has been pushed back to 7th June.. The UK chart thread needs updating. Still surprised at the v.low preorder position tho....

Yeah, I'd be in for a bit of new laid back Corrs pop.

This thread has potential. That may not be a good thing :D

Fantastic song.

I think Adele will make it after her next album...

Did someone really mention Olly Murs as a 'classic' :D I would have thought 'classic' must include mainly longevity, 10 years+ of major chart, touring success, and possibly some musical uniqueness eg. nirvana - grunge, stone roses- madchester.

A strange one! Like 2 or 3 songs in one. I like the verses, but I reckon the chorus and disjointedness will probably kill its success on pop. A brave choice though and credit for that.

Ella is performing Mirror Man on the Michael McIntyrye Easter show on Sunday...Sia is also on the show, with lampshade! https://kikikayleigh.wordpress.com/tag/ella-henderson/

Surprised it didn't chart, especially when it's going for 59p and with decent TV promo. Will he take the Dermot XFactor job??

Climbing quite strongly on iTunes, up to #68 --->- 61 ----> 54 so far....

Just noticed its at 59p, when did that happen??

Thanks Joe! I think she's already not a one-hit wonder, with another top 10 and a top 20 (and a platinum album). But I do agree she needs another Top 3 (even another no. 1) to firmly establish herself - and for that to happen before the next album ideally (maybe a collab or EDM track over the summer). I assume the next album will be out for next Xmas, but I may be way off with that!

tA8AfQaUnXM 1st Place: Ghost Score: 176 And at #1, unsurprisingly, comes Ghost!!, Ella’s debut upbeat soul-laden single. Co-written by Ryan Tedder and accompanied by a glossy video shot in New Orleans, it has broken Ella as a global artist, going platinum in the US, Australia and New Zealand as well as the UK and gold in a bunch of other countries. It is clearly the album's standout track, perfectly placing Ella's soul and gospel tinged vocals in a pop context and also bringing out some of her sexy, sultry side.

lMucL1hVngE 2nd Place: Empire Score: 160 Waaaaay above Yours and Mirror Man in Buzzjack popularity comes Empire! Co-written by Camille Purcell, who also wrote Glow. It remains ‘the one that got away’ for many, including the media luvvies and critics in Ella’s first Live showcase before the album launch – it was their standout track! Is is it too late for an Empire single release? probably, was it a mistake not releasing it? probably!

DKRRg150OYU 3rd Place: Glow Score: 147 Entering the top 3 at #3....comes Glow, the 2nd UK single from Chapter One. Probably the most modern production mix on the album, it shows some of Ella’s versatility and may yet lead to her doing an EDM collab at some point. Not the most successful of follow up singles though, after the monster hit of Ghost… Sean gave it a massive 11, Ryan a 10—Juliano a 6, Joe and myself a 7.

Agreed. I must admit I find her styling strange, especially as she obviously has an interest in fashion. No doubt they want her to look 'classy', but hey you can do that other than wearing black, and those black jumpsuits arent the height of style either! Seems to me they missed a trick in using fashion to enhance her image and impact.

fujcq7oeg_M 4th Place: Pieces Score: 142 Pieces is an upbeat anthem, co-written and produced by TMS. A favourite with many fans, and evidently Buzzjackers!- it seems to have been largely overlooked, never being performed live yet, although I have a feeling it will prove a favourite on Ella’s planned live tour. Single material? Absolutely!

3k9cK_n1mlg 5th Place: Missed Score: 141 'Missed' marked the start of Ella’s journey, wowing the judges and the British public on series 9 of XFactor. It demonstrated her vocal talent, talent as a songwriter and performer- ahem and she was ONLY 16! :0) It remains a beautiful heartfelt ballad, and might just make it as US single #2…

Yes, to be fair a lot of people have had a personal connection with the song and quite a few have used it as their wedding song.

CAjKZJarlwk 6th Place: Yours Score: 139.5 Yours, Ella’s 3rd UK single, comes in at Buzzjack #6! A romantic but somehow melancholic ballad, it was released for its Xmas appeal and did a pretty good job, charting at #16. It subsequently received boosts from ‘appearances’ on Hollyoaks and Vampire Diaries and continues to sell steadily. For me it is a really good solid ballad, but lacks a little something to make it great.

Haha 'If Only'! To be fair it might have made top 5 if you had!! Another surprise next------

7Nplwr5simI 7th Place: Mirror Man Score: 138 Mirror Man, Ella’s 4th UK single, drops in at number 7!! Co-written with Al Shux (Alicia Keys Empire State of Mind) it showcases Ella’s soul laden vocal talent and has great production. Maybe it’s a grower and after seeing the stunning video, co-starring a panther (Murphy), some may have changed their mind of late, I have….. But it failed to make much chart impact (#96) and they may have been better having a look at Buzzkjack’s top 5 before going with it as a single!

R6rl25pUUk0 8th Place: Give Your Heart Away Score: 137.5 Somehow just beating the mighty Rockets is ‘Give Your Heart Away’. A harmless mid range ballad, for me approaching filler and punching above its weight in the Buzzjack Rate! Calum Hood 11, Cody and Liam 10 evidently think different!! And now for the first big surprise......
