Delivered to pop radio today via HitDisc through Atlantic dance/hip-hop subsidiary Big Beat Records. We'll see if an adds date follows soon. Multi-week #1 hit in the UK.

Awesome! Glad they didn't wait too long to release it in the US.

Yes! I don't care that they'd be destined for one-hit wonder status, I just want to her this all over the radio this summer.

LOL, I could totally see this video catching fire over here.
I thought this was a song I'd listened to and couldn't stand, but I just listened to it again and it doesn't seem that bad. I'm kinda unsure/somewhere in the middle/IDK about this.

Perhaps an odd question, but what genre of music is this song?

It's a fusion of classical and dance. It's so perf. Ugh, I love it!

"Lights"-esque instrumental, Natasha Bedingfield-esque vocals, "Call Me Maybe"-esque hook
This will be massive.
I love this.

I love it. "Latch" and "La La La" aren't taking off fast enough for me right now, although I never expected them to. I feel like one of those two (or both) needs to smash to pave the way for this.

Wait, a British act (featuring another one) who's new to North American pop radio doesn't wait 6 months or more to cross over here? Either way, it a great song, and I'll hope it does well. :)

I love this song! It has that 90s Handbag House flavor that I used to love when it was hot back in the day. This song makes me feel so happy. I am glad that this is being released just a few weeks after it was released overseas. I hope this smashes!

I would LOVE it if this smashed here, but I'm not holding my breath. It'll probably become a popular song (not unlike much of Disclosure's catalog) often played in bars and clubs, but remain ignored by radio.
Anyway, as much as I love this song I actually prefer previous single "Dust Clears."

Jess Glynne is about to get another hit in the UK (My Love), but I don't think it will do anything in the US. Rather Be was a huge crossover hit in the UK. All sorts of radio stations play it. It's a nice song, although I'm getting a bit fed up of it tbh.

This is awesome. Between this, "Walking on Air," and a few other songs, we could be in a full 90s House revival on CHR by the end of Summer.

While I welcome a revival of the early-mid 90s house/dance sound which this reeks from (could def. be from 1992!) lol not really feeling this. It's catchy but way too lightweight. Duke Dumonts '90s infected 'Need You 100%' was def. better/hotter. I could see how this 'may' end up a hit in the U.S.

Really hoping that deep house is the next big trend with dance music in the US. Still waiting for the king of UK house music "Look Right Through" to come over and obliterate the hot 100. I know its registered on MediaBase but they really should get a release after this and Latch show success.

This song has really grown on me. I like it now. But I don't think it's the right to decision to release this, "La La La", and "Latch" at the same time. It might backfire.
