    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

    I wonder if Houdini had already been recorded by then and if it is still part of said lyrical theme.

    Houdini (looking at the studio pics she posted) was recorded in April (there are paparazzi pictures of Dua going to a studio in LA with the same yellow outfit (and we know she doesn’t use the same outfit twice))

    After letting this sit with me for a couple of days it's now an absolute EARWORM :jonny5: I can't get it out of my head

    Why are people mentioning Xmas songs when there are no Xmas songs above it, including “AIWFCIY”, or even close to it?

     

    :rip:
     

    The song just is “okay” (I’m not feeling it) and is having a natural consumer decline. 
     

    I’m sure this will become a “hit” in the NY’s once radio and it’s playlisting kick in ever more but I’m sceptical. 
     

    I think she’ll release the 2nd single by then anyway which may overpower this.

    oh we love an album separated into two parts (presumably?), first half with pop bangers, second half experimental psychedelic pop :jonnycat:
