Pretty Hurts is the most obvious single choice on the album, and it's mass global iTunes response from the outset proves that

In a way yes but us animals thought that same exact thing about Crazy Kids and the same thing the monsters said about DWUW and yet neither one of them performed the way either fan bases thought they would...i'm just saying

Yea I think Mine should go first, and save Pretty Hurts for Fall. It will slay at that time, and also give it the push for VOTY at the VMA's, as well as keep the album selling.

I've never considered that. I'm just a little worried that everyone will already have the song and already saw the video by the fall and it won't get the exposure it deserves. I want it to grab Pop Vocal at the Grammys and maybe SOTY or ROTY and a fall release might be too late for the song to release explode. But good idea.

I can agree that a good amount of people will have the album already by then, but I think it will only push it to sell more. The video and the song will catch many people's attention. It has a great message. I also think Best Pop Vocal is on lock for it, especially if she releases it around that time. As far as ROTY & SOTY go she has a hard choice. XO may blow up and become the deserved anthem it should and be nominated for both over Pretty Hurts. Or XO for SOTY and Pretty Hurts for ROTY.

6. Bow Down / I Been On

Agreed. I think she should release Mine first but tbh I don't think Pretty Hurts should be a single. Just because we think it's a good choice doesn't mean it is.

U do know PH was charting better than XO in most territories till today right? Its not a stan thing. Pretty Hurts shd be released next

4 really is a significant number for her.

Walking on Air charted better than Dark Horse and yet Dark Horse has done incredibly well over the past months and is now #2 on iTunes whereas Walking on Air, a song that everyone thought was going to smash, isn't doing that well...all I'm saying is we should just wait it out and see

Mine climbed to #98. So stable.

And I know that I'm being hateful, but that ain't nothin'. That ain't nothin'. I'm just jealous. I'm just human. Don't judge me.

I've come to the conclusion that I'm here for literally every song except Rocket
Although, I love the video.

[Sammi]

Rocket has grown on me so much since the release.

[*-ChriZ-*]

I love EVERY song. Ive got my few ultimate favs, but they are like possible evergreens to me. Other favs change daily, but there is not one single song I have to skip. I appreciate every song, I see a reason for each song and why it's in the order that we're supposed to perceive it. I genuinely love the entire flow of the album!

Okay, No Angel is my favorite track. The production + the ethereal vocals are just too damn much.
