I like this a lot. Great sing-a-long chorus.

Wow, this was an excellent performance. He looked like a megastar up there.

This is pure Rock. How can I not love it. There are a couple other rock oriented songs on his album; that I also enjoyed.

My favourite song of the album. I'm loving both Harry's and Niall's solo work.

This has been on my workplace playlist lately and it sounds so good. I know it's a bit of a risky choice for CHR/Pop since nothing with this type of sound has done well in a while, but if it were to open up the door for Pop/Rock again, I would be all for it.

It was added by The River in Nashville, and he had a show in Nashville on Monday. Do we assume a connection? |

^^I'd like this to be sent to CHR/HAC/AAA/Active/Alt and hope it sticks on at least one of those formats. It's a good song that's very radio friendly, but I don't know if it has an obvious format.

yeah I agree with Anna, this is really hard to place on a format but I do like it and hope it charts somewhere even though the lyrics are a little cringy at parts.

This is going to be the third single. The track will be pushed to Pop radio according to the latest Columbia promo newsletter.

YES YES YES YES YES!!!!!
This should've been the second single. It may be too Rock for the format but it has that catchy sing along chorus. PLEASE BE A HIT!

Kinda doubt this does anything here, but worth a shot right? Still think this should be sent to a bunch of formats to see who is willing to give this a chance.

I’m all for rock making a comeback in the mainstream but this type of rock is ... super dated. I do like the song tho, it’s catchy and I’m a sucker for anything with heavy guitar, but there’s no way pop radio is touching this with a ten foot pole. Not really sure what Columbia was thinking in general with his project

If this wasn't Harry Styles, this would be charting on Alt. But it is, and it will never.

This was not meant to be a big success, who are you kidding, this was meant to be Styles´s elite project, but now that the money is spent, he has to start selling and turn into puppet.

This was not meant to be a big success, who are you kidding, this was meant to be Styles´s elite project, but now that the money is spent, he has to start selling and turn into puppet. Nothing about this song is safe from the older harder Rock style production to the way Harry is singing and of course the subject matter of the lyrics. The album itself is not very commercial and I don't think Harry was aiming to be a Justin Timberlake type of artist. Though with the right singles and proper promotion and timing, he could have some moderate to good-sized hits. If the label wasn't okay with the non-traditional musical direction of his album, they would have gotten him into the studio with Max Martin, Ali Payami, Ilya, Sophie, Diplo and Skrillex and this album wouldn't have even happened. With labels so desperate to get hits nowadays and not wanting to take any type of musical risks, it's refreshing to see an album like this get made. Perhaps they are aiming at building and developing Harry as more than just an of-the-moment Pop artist and there's nothing wrong with that. |

I don't see this having much success, but my god is this a great song.
I honestly think they should promote this at Alternative and AAA.

Yay! We finally have an adds date! I'm hoping there is a proper push this time around though. Literally nothing happened with Two Ghosts besides a performance video. So I'm expecting some promo (tv shows, radio, etc.) along with a music video.
I also think they should try to branch out and push properly to Triple A and then if it turns out well, maybe let Alternative pick up on its own? Sign of the Times charted on AAA for several weeks and peaked right outside of Top 20, I believe. With Kiwi being much more rock, I feel it can do better. Unfortunately, there's no way Alternative is going to touch a song with his name unless given a good reason to do so, which is why I think a good push to AAA (along with Pop since that seems to be their plan) could help.

Something exceptional must occur so this becomes a hit in pop. This is way too risky for the format. Just see what happened to his past singles.
Like ilikemusic said, this sounds dated.
P.S.: I was listening to "Two Ghosts" while I was typing this.
