mike_int Posted February 16 Posted February 16 This literally could have been her Toxic if they went with more "in your face" and the last chorus and did an amazing high budget video
Finkypop Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Song is 10/10. Video is 2/10 Idk how we have such a high energy amazing track and we sit in a cafe drinking coffee an entire MV idk why the MVs this era are such nonevents. So unfortunate but the song… she ATE ATE ATE

KeirGrey Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Eh it's ok for me, im kinda over the rhythm these kinda songs have had, still i hope its a hit for her

Jglj Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Yesterday I heard it and was like, oh this is nice. Today I'm completely obsessed, also heard it on properly good headphones and the production is so good. For me this era has been 2/2. 3
Cheap Thrills 9.0 Posted February 16 Posted February 16 The verses are giving the song of the century and then that weak ass chorus kicks in
GreatestLoveofAll Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Oh i loved this btw! heard it last night and I was immediately liking it and i clicked with it wayyy faster than Houdini. It compliments it very well too like others have said.
Phoenixstar Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Is this the MV that was supposed to be "expensive" or did they reshoot it with a new one? I like the song a lot.
State of Grace. Posted February 16 Posted February 16 (edited) I was expecting 3.5M-3.8M after popmusic's post but a 4.1M streams debut would still be great. That would be her 2nd biggest. Edited February 16 by State of Grace.
Magickarp Posted February 16 Posted February 16 If this was the lead, & Houdini was the 2nd single, imagine if their MVs were connected. Training Season will the the boy's training arc. Houdini will be the boys trying to catch her.
futurenostalgic Posted February 16 Posted February 16 19 minutes ago, LanaXtinaFan said: After sitting on it for a bit, it grew on me a bit. But it’s still lacking a punch. I remember first hearing DSN and Physical and was blown away. This song is just missing something, it’s missing some magic. I think it’s the production. The choruses and the synths post chorus are just not hitting, and the final chorus is extremely underwhelming. I think it’ll be a hit overseas. But I don’t think this is gonna be her era in the states, which is unfortunate. She needs to work with Ian Kirkpatrick and Koz again. You know, the people who knew Dua very well from the start and have experience in crafting her pop hits...
Starships Posted February 16 Posted February 16 This was my favorite Dua song upon first listen then i watched that atrocious video and I now like it less because of the video it's SO bad. 1
kyris89 Posted February 16 Posted February 16 OMG in this site lol. "Yeah, i didn't like the second verse because the first note of the second word was a bit loud" and blah blah. Just enjoy this POP PERFECTION or leave this thread and go listen to that country Texas song 1 1
theweekend Posted February 16 Posted February 16 ugh it's really challenging to be one of her best songs
Delirious Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Is it just me or is the fashion choice in the MV the main issue? Everything the guys were wearing made them look homeless .whoever was styling should get checked

livelikemusic Posted February 16 Posted February 16 Love the song and love the video. Love how, despite being semi-muted, the vibrance of colours in the video stand out. Amazing. I can see why this was the original lead and got bumped.
unclefloprry Posted February 16 Posted February 16 I think some instrumental parts of the extended version should be in the og song, like the beginning and the part after the first chorus.
Asherio Posted February 16 Posted February 16 (edited) The ABBA-esque bridge and outro has been living rent free in my head since yesterday. I would go as far as to say that it’s up there with Physical as one of her best bridges. That piano progression mixed with the synths is such a brilliant choice. What a fantastic song, it’s very different from Houdini so I would rather not compare them, still would say I prefer TS, the chorus hits harder and the lyrics are much more iconic. Cant wait for the album. Give us Vertigo queen Dua. 🤍 Edited February 16 by Asherio 2
