COOOK 76,406 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Was it because her breakup with Calvin Harris turned pretty messy right when this was released? (He took back every song he worked with her) Was no one feeling the addictive instrumental, reminiscent of the airport tone calls? Is the song just not it? Or does this had something to do with her music: Previous "What went wrong with..." discussions: Spoiler Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andreu 37,216 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 I loved this song, definitely one of the best hits of 2014 (or whatever year this was released), I could totally see her becoming a MPG back then. A Shame the rollout for her second era became soooo messy. Phoenix ended up being a pretty successful album with plenty of recognisable songs, but the fiasco of the first attempt at lauching her second era with this song, Poison and Body On Me damaged her chances of becoming a bigger name internationally.

In Europe she does pretty decent, in the UK she performs better, I don't know what is it with her that's not fully clicking? I'm still mad Poison underperformed though, it's such a good pop song Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ToxicHot 6,444 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Rita Ora is soooooo underrated. Her first album was so good. I semi-stanned her during 2012-2013 before Gaga and Ariana released ARTPOP and Yours Truly. dOnT sAd ReAcT mE 2 bE sHaDy i WiLL RePoRt U!!1! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teletubby 144,159 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Calvin Harris wrote and produced this song. He has to approve the rights to use it and he blocked her from singing it at the Teen Choice Awards and maybe even blocked more of her performances There is video of her talkig about this Teen Choice Awards performance "You b*tch!" ~ Rat Boy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
homomo 23,875 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 Rita: *doesn’t chart in the USA but performs well everywhere else* Americans: “is Rita Ora a flop??” Random Song: *Charts high in the US but fails to be relevant anywhere else* Also Americans: “Why is this song so massive?” 0110100001100101011011000110110001101111 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StuckInMyMind 5,930 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 This song always reminds me of sitting in the radio studio at 6am during the summer of 2014! Good times! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
