why do you guys want her to release the "best" songs on the album so quick? they're almost always used to sell the actual album

speaking more generally it makes sense from a marketing standpoint — most artists (especially new ones) want to lead with their best foot (or, considering this is single number two, feet) forward to maximize hype for the album. If it feels like an artist is already creatively running on empty by their second or third song it's not going to motivate many people to check out their album.

 

That said, Fantasy is solid enough. I think maybe Angel set my expectations a bit unrealistically high, but I'm still very much looking forward to listening to the album

Can't wait to get home and watch her live lounge performances! 

she chewed whatever that song is, my jaw dropped 

I need more arabic riff from her, it's hauntedly gorgeous 

 

also love fantasy live performance, very cheeky added lyrics

especially before the second chorus drop, beautiful falsetto

 

Those Live Lounge performances are everything!

Vinyls have been delayed until the 22nd November

 

Before the meltdowns I doubt they really would have made the impact people expected them to

This is sooooooo good   

Ok, so she DEVOURED her Live Lounge cover. It really did feel like she understood what live lounge is supposed to be. Reinventing a song to make it your own and doing the unexpected. The Arabic influences and lyric changes were a great addition, it still felt in keeping with the tone of her original releases too, so a great way to solidify her artistic style. 
 

I enjoyed it very much, would love to have it available on Spotify. 

Charted at 52, same as Perrie's recent single.

 

219 cds and 18 cassettes

 

BUT this isn't all the physicals as I haven't received my CDs, cassettes or Vinyls! Wonder what the hold up is with the majority of the CDs and Cassettes.

 

Annoying they've pushed the Vinyl back a month.

LOVE the Fantasy performance!

18 cassettes! Think Jade is on Queen Rachel Lesters level

Down to #89 on Apple Music, not added to Hot Hits UK. A real shame, this deserved better. Its still such a good song, I'm getting a lot of replay value out of it.

What a debut.. all three songs are amazing, she didn't come to play omg…

 

Fantasy > Cow > Angel. I love em all though.

I can't believe it's the exact same peak

She killed it 

the live rendition was amazing, but BACKBONE, wow, those haunting vocals... we need it on spotify!

I can't believe this is going to flop in to oblivion, it deserved AT LEAST a top 40 peak. A pop injustice!

Apparently when you order all three formats, they ship it all together when vinyls are ready. So I hope they decide to ship those cds and cassettes now earlier with the vinyl delay to at least have another 18 cassette and 50 cd sales for this week

Not releasing "That's Showbiz, baby!" immediately after AOMD when it was going extremely viral does feel like a little bit of a misstep, in hindsight.

 

People were foaming at the mouth for it when we first got that snippet. I do think that song will put her back on the right track and drum up more interest in a potential album, but I don't know if it will have quite the same impact it could have had if she'd released it earlier.

 

I still think it needs to drop in November with an album announcement & pre order. This song is clearly going to do nothing for her commercially, so if she goes radio silent from now to January she's going to lose a lot of interest.

Yeah, I completely agree with all the above. It's like Addison following up on the Aquamarine snippet.

 

On another note, I've been obsessed with her live performances. If these are the first ones, just imagine the rest.
