According to this article, the title track will be performed on the UK X Factor on December 15th and will serve as the third single off their new record "Midnight Memories". There's no confirmation for the US, so I thought I'd make it here and it could me moved whenever/if it's confirmed for the US.

The one former album track that I got into when the album was released...

One of the only songs on the album that I dislike and more importantly a U-turn from the radio breakthrough that they've finally secured.
In short: This is such a mistake [2]

I like it, but it's about 6 years too late for pop. It kind of reminds me of 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' in places.

My feelings about it: I love the song, it's one of my favorites on the album and one of my favorite singles from them in contrast to their last single which I borderline disliked. As a single choice, it's not their best option (Happily, Little White Lies, Strong or Better Than Words) would have made a stronger choice. Anyways, I will jam to this whenever it comes on the radio. I like it, but it's about 6 years too late for pop. It kind of reminds me of 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' in places. Yup, the chorus. There was some talk that they were going to get sued by Def Leppard but they aren't going to file any legal action as of yet.

Not a fan of this as a single choice, and I don't even particularly care for this song as an album track. Definitely, at least for me, one of the weaker spots on the album. I would've gone with "Diana," which is quite possibly my favorite song they've ever done.

"Diana" would've been a much better choice! I think the problem with "Diana" is that it's not far from the mark from all of their singles that stalled. I get the feeling that they're gonna push for different sounding singles which should be interesting. I hope we get a fourth single after this.

I am looking forward to the video. They were strapped to the top of London Bridge filming it. Guess none are afraid of heights!
I've said this in the SOML thread but I love this song as a track. I blast it in my car. But as a radio single, they got so much better material to work with on the album. "Strong" "You and I" "Happily" "Diana" "Through the Dark" and I think the biggest hit in waiting "Right Now."
SOML gained them a whole new momentum and respect. I hope they keep pushing it as long as they can cause it has potential to climb even higher. I'd hate to see them stop promoting it to radio in favor of rush releasing this. SOML will be a recurrent hit for awhile and I don't see it dropping fast like their previous singles did.
So release this in the UK and other parts of the world, but please hold off in the US for awhile, or just choose something else for this Country.

Good song, but why not "Happily?" That has the most potential on the album, other than SOML.

I think they will be pushing this internationally first. SOML is still alive and kicking in the US.
Music video is coming Jan 31st at 4pm GMT. Meanwhile the single EP has March 10 release date.

So then there's still hope that this becomes an only international single and they end up releasing "Strong"/"Diana"/"Happily" next. It will be like Avicii's "You Make Me"/"Hey Brother" ordeal.

Honestly I'd be surprised if they released "Happlily" next in the US despite its hit potential - simply because Pharrell Williams' song with a very similar title is smashing.
