The lyrics are relatable though and it is a bit of an earworm.

"One Last Time" never fails to amuse me in how the lyrical protagonist fails to learn anything from her mistakes. "I know I totally screwed you over by cheating on you, but the only way for me to assuage my guilt is by screwing you over again by getting you to make the exact same mistake and probably get caught/dumped for it just like you caught/dumped me." If you don't sit your hoes-ain't-loyal tail down somewhere...
Anyway, it seems they were determined to release a ballad at some point so this is probably the best option for pop (def. better than Why Try). Personally would have preferred that they skip to BYHRB or BMB though.
Hands On Me still feels like a leftover from Christina Aguilera's debut but it has grown on me.

"One Last Time" is a ballad? It's a slower song, but I wouldn't classify it as a ballad.

It's not a ballad (and neither are Why Try or Best mistake for that matter) if we're going by BPM, but they have a "slower" feel...they are what some people would call a midtempo ballad. It's one reason why I don't care too much for the term 'midtempo' as a standalone description of a song, because that encompasses such a wide array of songs.

I wouldn't call it a ballad myself, but then that's getting nitpicky and ultimately I don't care. I'm just glad they didn't go with 'Why Try'.
I kind of assumed this would be the last single, but I guess there's room for one more single if 'One Last Time' does well enough-- which, on paper, it should. My vote is for 'Be My Baby'.

Yeah I'm kinda pissed now that Be My Baby isn't being released next. It's too good to ignore!

One Last Time was an obvious single choice once I heard her album. As someone that was only interested because I liked all three singles, OLT was the most instant earworm for me. She should go 5 singles though. I think Why Try will flop, even though I enjoy it, but BYHRB is another hit.

Isn't Ciara performing there too? Probably at one of the clubs Edit: On a serious note she could be either doing the beginning performance during the player introductions (like what Pharrell did last year) or the National Anthem

Why isn't Liz making music? I love her voice too! She was supposed to be recording like 3 years ago, I imagine her music career is pretty close to Victoria Justice's...meaning dead in the water

She's performing at the "Stevie Wonder: Songs In The Key Of Life — An All-Star GRAMMY Salute," airing February 16.
She don't miss a performance, does she? LOL. I'm actually surprised she isn't singing the National Anthem for this year's Super Bowl.

She's already sang the National Anthem for a NFL game this season, so I knew she wasn't going to be chosen for that.
