Second radio single from his self-titled album is coming soon. A Harry Styles banner is under the coming soon section from Columbia's latest promotion letter.

"Ever Since New York" is probably the safest choice, but I don't think there are any obvious hits left on the album.

Hmm. I like the song but I was hoping for something more upbeat aka Carolina or Kiwi (although the latter probably wouldn't work).
I wonder if they went with this because this was the album track that got most attention (sales and streaming wise).

Huh I'm familiar with some of the other tracks off the album but I haven't heard this one. Figured they would go with Kiwi (very upbeat and radio friendly but not too pop friendly) or Sweet Creature (less hooky but more pop friendly). I'll have to listen to this later, but I think I foresee Styles being a one hit wonder chartwise no matter what he releases sadly. He can probably get good album sales and maybe even chart on some of the rock charts tho.

This isn't one of my favorites from the album at all.

A nice listen, but this sounds almost too country for pop radio. I don't see this being a big hit in all honesty but like others said, he has album sales and acclaim on his side

I like it a lot, but it's a very weird choice. There's no way this will be a hit if the lead didn't go Top 10 here.

Let's be honest, he doesn't have any bonafide "hits" on this album. So I'm not sure what people are expecting him to release. What other choices would be hits? I'm fine with him releasing whatever he wants because I don't think anything is going to stick. I love the album and I'm hoping he can ride it out through 2018, since he will be on tour for the next year or so. I don't expect hits, but hopefully he can continue to push those album sales.

Favorite song on the album. I think if promoted right, this could be a decent hit with some longevity.

I don't think it's the strongest single choice but I like it more than SOTT. Will be interesting to see how it performs.

This is good, reminds me for Ryan Adams actually. Probably won't do squat on the charts, but at least he's making good music.

The chords are lifted right from "Melissa" by The Allman Brothers Band.

He easily is the best of 1D, well him and Niall cause "Slow Hands" is also a jam
I literally love his whole album
Meanwhile Liam has been 0/2 for me, Louis's 1 song is just ok, and Zayn had 1 pretty good album but I hate hate HATE everything that has come after it plus all his smoking and drugs makes him so damn unattractive even though he is good looking af.
I hope this does well

Not a bad song but as a single it could solidify people's perception of him as a boring ballad guy regardless if it becomes a hit or not (and personally I don't think it will). "Kiwi" for example would flop hard on pop but if they decided to release it let's say on alt, it would definetely make people view him as a more versatile artist.

Why on Earth would they push the adds date back when the lead single is already done?

Ok this really grew on me. I am 100% behind this song now. But I am afraid that chart-wise it probably won't be anything but flop follow-up to Sign Of The Times. :/ I don't know, I hope it can find at least some success in the UK.

Why on Earth would they push the adds date back when the lead single is already done? Harry is doing promo and premieres for Christopher Nolan's "Dunkirk" right now. Dunkirk promo may extend past the release date of the film (July 21 in the US). Harry has been in high demand for this promo and seems to be getting solo interviews on a number of TV shows including The Tonight Show. meanwhile.. Headline Planet @headlineplanet 6h6 hours ago harry_Styles' Two Ghosts has been made available to US radio | It doesn't officially impact until August 8, but it may receive early spins |

It really sounds something from in the middle of 90ies US adult/folk rock a la Hootie and The Blowfish or The Verve Pipe. I actually like it, but it is still pretty unnoticed album track, which have been done thousands times. Will it be a hit? Nope.

WOW! This could actually do something, I'd love it if Harry got some pop support.

If he can get this into the top 50 soon, there will be 4 solo One Directioner's in the top 50 at the same time.Don't think that it's ever happened before, where all the members of a group had a solo hit in the top 50 at the same time?
