I actually love this! Does anybody else think it has quite a sinister sound to it? It reminds me a bit of Thriller at times. 
 

Not Dua delivering a future Halloween playlist staple.

    This being your example for the US' bad taste

  • one of the weakest lead singles in recent pop music. everything but the chorus ("do you think bout it night & day?") is very weak and uninspired. melodically it sounds like everything she's done b

  • I like that the most notable things about Dua is that she’s a gorgeous pop star who makes great music. And then when you peel back the layers a bit, all you really see is how intelligent, worldly and

The only person who probably still spends tons of money on music videos is Taylor Swift, and she doesn’t even need any of them lol (and the videos are all choices, like Karma).

I loved the dynamic of Houdini video. Very fun to watch and people probably will emulate it a lot on Tik Tok, which is part of the success formula of a song today.

the song is awesome, i love the synths! idk where ppl get disco from, it's synth-pop. "Maybe you could be the one to make me stay-y-y-y-y" the stay's at the end are giving me COADF madge voice :jonny5:

on the other hand, the video is atrocious, doesn't fit the song at all, feels like a video for a 3rd/4th single (which is an offense to love again whose video is great). i'd have rather seen her in a 1920s setting in a hotel, disappearing while dating or sth. i guess a magician theme would've been too on the nose but this low-budget hung up vid isn't doing it for me.

i thought she was filming on a location outside of a studio, where's that footage?

Right on point.

Song is very good, and will be even better with repeated listens. :heart:  Cannot wait for the album, hope we'll know soon when it's coming.

Most likely for another song.

I come and I go

Tell me all the ways you need me 

I’m not here for long 

Catch me or I go Houdini

The song is so fantastic. It's still getting better after every listen :jonny2:

The MV is cute, especially the last minute. Ofc I would've preferred a MV with a storyline, but it's fine really.

The YouTube views are really unexpected wow :clap3:is it becoming the new Flowers ?

And so it starts ....

 

 

I wish the chorus had a bit more kick to it, it kinda falls flat

Hm this idk 

 

Flowers was very GP friendly 

This one is more for the hardcore pop music lovers 

 

But hopefully Dua will prove me wrong

7m views in 13 hours and some people here had the audacity to say that she isn't MPG yet:ahh:

I'm loving some reactions! People can't say it's a bad song or that she doesn't love being a popstar so the non sense arguments starts :foxaylove2:
