Impacting Top 40 10/15 I'm moving this thread here. I don't think it's necessary to keep this thread in the Non-Radio Singles & Album Tracks forum until it's pushed in the US, so once it happens, a new thread could be created. |

Glad that this is going to be pushed in the US and her label isn't waiting too much time to do that. Anyway, let's see if this could do something at radio and Rita could finally break in the States though~

This might be her closet chance to breaking in the states.. It's a really good.

I mean #Justice4Anywhere but I'd probably take it as a win if this can outperform 'For You'.

This might be her closet chance to breaking in the states.. It's a really good. I feel like we said that about every good song she released from this album (so, everything besides "Girls.") I doubt this will do any better than her previous attempts to break the U.S. market, but it's still a bop, and I'm glad the album is finally coming. |

I like this song and bought it instantly.
It's a nice song and i think it could grow on people some.
The chorus isn't that bad and the whole song doesn't rely on the production.
I was getting sick of songs that just relied on the drop to make it good.

One of her stronger recent releases along with "Anywhere". Too bad her material is so inconsistent, I really want to root for her.
"I Will Never Let You Down" remains her best, IMO. Should've been her breakthrough.

Rita's lack of American traction is annoying. Although inconsistent, she's a great vocalist and has enough good material to have taken off in the West years ago. So frustrating.

This is a solid effort. Imo her music is better then the majority of the current female pop staples.

 I am so glad that this is happening. I am horrified and shocked and gutted that they have been unable to make any of her last few singles work here. The saddest part is that all of the songs were super radio friendly, creative, and exciting. Even a song with Cardi B didn't do anything here. |

This is cute but there’s a 99% chance the US won’t touch it.

The amount of effort her label puts into her is astounding. She's basically a hit machine in the UK and does ok in other markets. It's only the US that she's never been able to break at all. Personally I think she should focus on solidifying her WW status everywhere else; she could be like Kylie Minogue. But her label is probably not losing money by continuing to throw out singles here since they have sales/streams to fall back on elsewhere. |

Rita is becoming a recognisable name in the US. It's just radio that's resistant to her.
Her singles have had a decent iTunes showing, so she has some sort of base. She's also done decently on Spotify and streaming in general.

I like this. Not on the same level as Anywhere, but passable and definitely better than Girls.

Rita Flopra is 4/4 for me with this one; I'll definitely be one of the 300 people in the US who purchase Phoenix.

Ouch... lol I like both of their music. The good thing is we're finanlly past the era when flop artist cannot even get their albums out in the US. One of the few good things about this streaming era. (Still pissed that none of Nicole and Rita's albums are available.) |

I know I said this in RT but the more I listen to this song, the more I'm convinced that it is a cleverly disguised praise anthem. Like... that last set of choruses!!!!! Yes Lord!!!!!!
IMAGINE: The world's biggest stage, a few lyrical tweaks, 500 members of America's finest church choirs and Mother Terita taking us to CHURCH to close out the Super Bowl Halftime Show. This song would be the biggest gospel smash the world has ever seen.

I remain convinced that IWNLYD was her only real shot at an American hit and she f’d it up but kudos to her and this perseverance! The song is catchy and better than Girls for sure.
