I take it this will peak in the 41-50 range on pop.

Absolutely LOVED "Endlessly", and I really liked all of their other singles ("Bad" was actually my least favorite tbh), so I have really high hopes for this. And hopefully being on a bigger label will help it do a lot better than their other songs did.

I'm excited to hear this, they've had some stuff in the past that seemed to have a lot of hit potential. I still jam to "Bad" every once in a while, lol.

"Lock Me Up" is the first 30 seconds. Everything sounds incredible. I can't wait to hear all these songs in full.

"Lock Me Up" is actually the worst from the EP :/ "Moon" is a smash in the making though. "Numbers" and "Stand Up" sound really good too.
Some things that are bothering me though, is that the beginning to "Lock Me Up" sounds IDENTICAL to "Army of Two" by Olly Murs and the beat to "These Are the Lies" sounds pretty similar to "Kings & Queens (Throw It Up)" by: SoMo.

Looks like some of their fans aren't happy about the new sound, which is understandable, but they're moving in the right direction if pop hits are their target. "Numbers" sounds the most promising.

I really don't think their sound on this EP is that much more poppy than "Symphony Soldier." It might be a little bit, but for the most part it sounds like they've kept their sound.

Oddly enough, with the title of this song being what it is, it's not the one causing the problem. :kii:

I'm predicting a 41-50 peak with this like the rest of their singles. "Lock Me Up" is not really all that good compared to their other songs, I can't see this breaking Top 40. I could see "Moon" being a pretty decent sized hit and "Stand Up" at least breaking the Top 40.

My favorites on the EP are "Stand Up" and "Numbers." After that, "Lock Me Up" and "Moon" are about equal to me, and then there's the fairly underwhelming "These Are The Lies."

Great EP. I liked "Endlessly," but I kind of thought they were going to be a one-hit wonder for me.

Yikes. 0 adds this week on its adds date. I'm guessing it's getting pushed back.

Moon is the only single-worthy song on the EP. Big step down from their last album.

Republic's page, which was already updated to promote next week's songs, still lists the June 3 date and claims it is "impacting Top 40 now" (which would mean it hit this week). Perhaps Republic also forgot to update, but I'd assume that would be more reliable than All Access (which still isn't listing Habits).

I think Republic might have cancelled the release for this. I didn't pull in a single add on its adds date (unless it was pushed back), and now it's not under Republic Playbook anymore.

Moon and Numbers are the better tracks off the EP but nothing explosive enough to garner the success they need. Endlessly off the last record should've been pushed hard.
