Yes, I agree that this is better than Hold Back The River. This is doing decently on HOT AC, currently #16 there with 2,697 spins. Would be very nice to see James Bay get a song charting on Pop radio.

I love this so much, but I don't see this doing anything here sadly.
ETA: Oh no, please don't let that uptempo mix under Cool New Music make this popular. This is outstanding just the way it is; the new mix takes a massive shit on it. They should have done something similar to the uptempo to "Hold Back the River", which didn't tarnish the original.

Would be very nice to see James Bay get a song charting on Pop radio. Now I'm wondering: Was Hold Back The River ever pushed to pop? i think it didn't do well enough on sales and hot AC to make the final push to pop. Hold back the river is not an instant song it took some time before i started to apreciate it. And frankly people behind english newcomers are not doing that well (and there's George Ezra's Blame it on me to prove it). This is more popular on the US market from the beginning. The problem is that apart of Hold back the river i don't know if he has much on store if this works. It happened to Ella Henderson or George Ezra too. Anyway, this has to be a hit first before thinking in the follow up

Hearing this on the radio is so depressing. Every station (even Hot AC) is playing the upbeat, tropical island type remix. It ruins all the emotion that was in the song.

Hold Back the River is much better imo but I'm glad this is seeing success.
I like this guy a lot.
