Pop radio has a vendetta against Rita for reasons unknown so Iβm not expecting much, but Iβm praying this smashes. It is one of the best pop songs in the last year and very deserving of being a hit.

I love this, but I'm rather pessimistic based on past performance.

This is solid. Maybe she will finally have her breakout hit after being persistently shoved down our throats for half a decade.

OMG HELL YES! This absolutely has to succeed in the U.S. and become a multi-week smash with huge longevity. It's troubling that none of her stuff does well here even if it is as good as this. CHR/Pop radio is a total wasteland right now and needs a breath of fresh air. This is the time to use payola, deals to get it started, sexual favors for radio PDs, etc. Everyone needs to be on this jam. It's a certified bop.

Itβs weird to see this only just being sent to the US as it feels like weβve had it in the UK for ages. Itβs so overplayed here. But still really good. Hopefully this is her breakthrough.

I'm glad that they are going to send this to US radio. I co-sign the comments that this is a really good pop song and it deserves to be a hit in the US as well. That said, I was torn if they would do that if it's taken into consideration that they have "Girls" and "Anywhere" could have been scrapped in favour of that one to be pushed WW instead. Itβs weird to see this only just being sent to the US as it feels like weβve had it in the UK for ages. Kind of. The US audience tend to be slow with songs that have been a hit overseas, but it should be considered that this could have gone nowhere if it was pushed in Q4 in the US, so in this case it's better a Q1 release in my opinion.

Hoping that this can receive a Zara "Never Forget You" or Clean Bandit "Rockabye" sized hit on Pop. She's resilient AF and she deserves this. If not this than the 50 Shades whatever single she has coming up with Liam Payne.

This is by far her best single she's ever released. It better be a US hit

I love this but I thought it had already been sent to radio. I like how it doesn't use the basic drop that most dance songs are using now a days. The dance breaks are one of my favorite parts of the song. Something about this song is a little euphoric in a way. I hope it does well for her.

This song really deserves global success so I hope the US gets on board. Either way, Girls is likely to pull through and be a hit no matter what.

Nope.
It's so ironic how most of her videos are shot in the US, yet they say no to her every time.

Call me insanely optimistic, but I think this has a shot. Pop could use an injection of fun at the top of 2018.

This is just such a great little BOP. Fun, a little different and just Kylie 'early 90's' pop yumminess.

If "New Rules" can blow up, I'm hoping this one can too!
I love this song, and I hope Rita can finally get the solo US smash that she deserves.

New rules is soo unique, has a killer video and is so damn catchy. Do we really think that Anywhere has those elements?? I personally donβt think so and I would like to see Rita succeed just as much as the next person cos I think she is talented.

Call me insanely optimistic, but I think this has a shot. Pop could use an injection of fun at the top of 2018. Her best song. Her catchiest hook. Her most melodic verses. Plus it's on trend yet it doesn't sound like a direct copycat of any other hit. This is a no-brainer smash. But it's also Rita so we shall see...

This is hot, catchy and melodic. Everything a Pop song should be, so if CHR doesn't play this then they're f*cked up.
Forget about it being Rita, but that's just the way it is. Good luck Ritallah!
