Headlines - released August 16th.

I was just on my way to post this! Great minds

I absolutely love the track. The preview from last week didn't do it justice. It's really slow building but I love it. Another glossy pop gem

I hope it's a big hit for them! Let's hope their management don't mess up this era like the last!

[Al]

I agree, the clip didn't do anything for it.

Love this, i hope it finally bags them a #1, it's a shame Wordshaker did so badly though.

I firmly believe that if they had released Ego then One Shot, then maybe Forever is Over, their album would have sold twice as much.

Even if it sold twice as much I'd still have called it a flop

It's just odd they didn't release a third single, since 'Chasing Lights' didn't really start selling well until 'Issues' came out.

I agree, Forever is Over was not a good lead single. Guess many thought that was an indication of the album, so they passed on buying it... things would have been very different if Echo had been chosen.

[Jordan]

After a couple of listens, I really can't see this going #1.

[S1m]

It's another well-produced pop nugget but like CT says, can't see it being a #1. Seems a little too languid.

I really want it to have a hot remix, so it can appeal to a larger audience. I agree, it's only real downside is that it's hard to box into a genre - it's too fast to be a ballad but too slow to be an up-tempo.

Think you're getting your girl bands mixed up here.

Haven't heard this song in full yet and can't watch the vid cause i'm in school...but the clip semmed a bit dull tbh.

[Toy Toy's Boy]

This song is my latest obsession! It's said to be a track on 'Headlines' and is called 'Higher'. So far there's only a performance-quality recording of it, rather than the studio version, but I absolutely love it. It just grows and grows on you with each listen.

Side Note - The girls sound great in the performance!

[Jordan]

Up : Higher? lol

[Al]

Looking forward to a HQ of this.

[Ramz]

Heard Missing You for the first time, not too fond of it.

Hoping it will grow on me.

[Toy Toy's Boy]

Well, to pass the time until the album and single are out, I thought it would be interesting to rank the band's singles so far.

Here they are in order of release:

If This Is Love
Up
Issues
Just Can't Get Enough
Work
Forever is Over
Ego
Missing You

Here are my preferences:

Ego
Issues
Work
If This is Love
Missing You
Up
Forever is Over
Just Can't Get Enough

[Jordan]

1 Work
2 If This Is Love
3 Forever Is Over
4 Up
5 Issues
6 Ego
7 Missing You
8 Just Can't Get Enough

[PurpleCareBear]

1.Up
2.If This Is Love
3.Ego
4.Issues

[Ramz]

1. Work
2. Just Can't Get Enough
