Perrie Edwards has powered her way to a potent premiere on the Official UK Singles Chart with her debut solo offering ‘Forget About Us.’
Full story below…
Fuelled by strong streams and multiple formats available in physical form, the Pop anthem had been touted to achieve top 10 debut on the coveted count.
With the final numbers tallied, it’s been confirmed that the track – which was co-penned by Ed Sheeran – launches at #10 on the chart.
In doing so, it sees Edwards become the second Little Mix alum to score a solo top 10 single on the Official UK Singles Chart – following Jesy Nelson’s debut ‘Boys’ in 2021.
Can ‘Forget About Us’ climb even higher? Time will tell. In the here and now, what are…
Flop💅🏻
The irony is it’s a forgettable song, middle of the road radio friendly written in the boardroom but kinda bland. Girl groups going solo is a hard slog as the things that make a girl group interesting to their fanbase – who sings which line, what they will be wearing, if your fave gets the main vocal etc. – are missing. Wish her success tho and I’m still rooting for Jade who I’m hoping will bring something edgy and original.
Same with PCD.. Nicole is relevant when she was with the group. All her solo songs are trashy💅🏻
Not true.
Don’t Hold Your Breath his number one in several territories and is classier than anything PCD did. Equally, Right There Nx Your Love, though not as successful are fR from trashy. Generally speaking, anyone in a band is there because they’re better as part of something bigger. Beyoncé, Nile Rogers, Diana Ross are pretty much the exceptions.
The snippets were promising but it sounds like generic Ed Sheeran and the mix is awful – the first 1 minute is throwaway
