Yeah doesn’t seem to have made the splash I’m sure she/her label were hoping for and dropped off pretty quickly. Here’s hoping single #2 fairs a bit better. I doubt she’s on track for a flop album but Houdini didn’t get things off to the best start. 

Her dance moves in the video are better than the song it's self and that tells you everything as she isn't the best mover. 

Had she not been set to headline next year, I don't think she'd have got it later. There are acts that sell tickets quicker than she does in the UK easily that wouldn't get that headline spot.

Have had a soft spot for Dua Lipa since I saw her on the Friday afternoon in 2017 in John Peel (is that now being called a different name?) while waiting for The Lemon Twigs! 

Houdini isn't very good but I think working with Kevin parker and his pal Tobias is maybe a risk if you're looking for a nailed on hit. Dance the Night is a monstrously huge song however, deservedly so imo, and another impressive writing credit for Mark Robson - I had assumed his days of big songs were behind him.

@northernangelwho are the acts you think would shift more UK tickets than Dua Lipa at the moment? Am interested.

Came here to post this too. I am still fairly confident the new record will be huge.

i really like houdini. i think it should have released with the longer edit or a dance mix with it. is kevin parker of tame impala producing the new album? i saw an interview where she said the new album is psych-pop. im all in for that if true.

Dont know why anyone is freaking out about her chart positions. She has one number 1 and everything else has done decent.

Possibility of another airing at Wembley after last night's results.

Could be more flares when she does it at Glastonbury though.

Think people are in for a shock how that song is going off at G 🤣

Just about make out what they are saying there. It's a great City in the UK but keep them lot away.

I'm tempted to go just for that song. Not that I like it but I always makes me laugh when it gets an airing at the match. It's just so odd that it's been added to the cannon.

You're fighting a losing battle there.

I think she's equally as baffled tbh but it's good to have something more upbeat to play.

I can see a mass exodus after it's been played.

[Joshuwarr]

Why so? It's not even in her top 5 most streamed songs. Although its definitely the song that would probably get the most feral reaction from the crowd and for that I'm buzzing

I'm not trying to win a battle lol, it was the scousers that made arses of themselves at Kasabian.

Yup, that'll do it 

[NorthernSoul52]

Let's see how the new one shapes up.

[DDave]

Bangeriffic.

[NorthernSoul52]

Nice live vocal line, by and large.

[northernringo]

She's going to be great as a headliner - can't wait for the album.

[NorthernSoul52]

High hopes she smashes it out of the park. Think she'll prove a little more successful that Billie Eilish, though can't quite decide if she just suffered by comparison of the other two bill-toppers in her year.

This is a mad take

A mass exodus of LFC fans or do you think the whole field clears? The latter feels very unlikely.
