It's not the ideal scenario of course but it's not the end of the world. Leaks happens for almost every major artist and even for people who aren't that big. I doubt she's that bothered and I also doubt they were too surprise when it occured. It's not an early FN situation when the next single and scrapped album songs leaked early.

Ofc is not that big or bad as before, but I do believe she can be sadder because of it and can, at least temporarily, take away a bit of excitement from her until she makes up her mind that everything will be fine. Everything was going so perfectly, she was happy, believing everything will be perfect, and suddenly she's leaked. She won't be indifferent, as normal as it might be.

Ugh I've been listening to the L-word nonstop. I swear I'm gonna make it up by streaming a lot when it's officially out

A pandemic disrupted her first MPG era and look how that turned out. She’s a big girl, she’ll be fine

Yes, all I am saying is that is normal if the l- hits a bit her feelings atm, specially due to previous trauma 

[shark_heather]

I hope we get a video teaser tonight 🙏 

[Take Me Apart]

Love it but I don't know if it's really lead material

 

I love the whispered background vocals in the chorus

y’all think the l*ak could affect the song’s debut on spotify and other platforms?

[ugo]

This sounds like such a hit

no. only people that care about the leak are dua fans and some forum gays

[Fancyhoodlum]

Did you notice that all her album covers on Spotify have changed?

good point

Promo:

 

Looking like prerecording U.K. main radio today ready to go Friday morning.

 

Unlikely doing Graham Norton as that’s usually filmed Thursday evening, and doesn’t that coincide with the promo party thing in London?  Strictly Come Dancing (Dancing With The Stars)  results on Sunday looks pretty unlikely for a variety of reasons.  Is going to LA for 2nd promo thing next week, so stop off in NYC to do radio and TV premier on one of the late night shows over the weekend???

 

Anything more appropriate/impactful that would fit?

 

Would imagine Warner et al are not going to stint here.

video teaser today

What a f***ing bop. The woman delivered.

Its a great track, repetitive? yes .... but absolute ear worm and production wise something which is not in charts at the moment.

 

I just wish they would elevate the final chorus, make it more dramatic, add some drums and dirty sounding guitar and strings, its all in same line, no progression.

 

I hope she will serve an amazing video which will elevate the song

This is what bothers me the most , but at least it's a massive grower so that's that.

[BlackoutZone]

maybe you could cause a girl to change

 

HER WAYS!

No, nobody knows it leaked. Only ATRL and some Twitter gays.

[TrueBlood]

After many hours of playing this one, I can confirm it's a certified BOP but it bothers me a lot how, adding at least one minute to it and with the elements the song has, this could have been WAY more fresh and interesting. Even the outro is too short and feels "rushed", imagine another chorus after that with all the production coming together (synths, guitars, explosive drums).

Not more than a few k streams, but no. Because it leaked very undergroundly and she's a big artist that will get most of streams from the GP playlisting.

But the buzz on media made by some die hard fans that would get other people to check her out will be less now, as most of them already got the "orgasm", let's say haha

Day 2. It still sounds insanely catchy.

 

 

[Braz]

Kinda meh, I was expecting THEE bop.

[Saint James]

if you guys want an extended version, be vocal. Dua is someone that actually listens to fans and gives them what they want! especially if it helps on the chart.

I don’t think anybody does? It’s perfect the way it is

[Better Mistakes]

This is familiar yet different. I think this will end up being a perfect lead single if the sonic palette lacks cohesiveness
