Radio one have added it to their playlist which suggests that it will be the seventh single from Lights. To be honest I am a bit disappointed by this news as I feel that they're are much better songs on the album (Wish I Stayed, Your Biggest Mistake, I'll Hold My Breath, Human, Little Dreams, Animal and Believe Me - just to name a few). I don't think it will do well on the charts either as I thought the single Lights was going to be a top ten hit yet that didn't even reach top 40 so therefore I don't know how badly this will do.

What is the point in this!?

The albums done as much as it's going to do, I assume they've pushed another single because of her connection with the royal wedding but there really is no need to release another single!

and I agree that if she was to release another single - Human should've been the choice!

I saw her perform Human at the o2 a few months back, I'm sure she said it was going to be a future single? Wonder what made them change their minds

I do agree though bad choice to bring out this even though I am a massive fan it wont do anything for the album sales sadly :/

The album's been out over a year now, with a re-release and all. There comes a certain point where you should just stop pushing one album and move onto the next. And as already been pointed out, it isn't going to do anything for the album anyway.

The song's a bit meh, there are better songs on the album.

Yeah, Human was planned to be the lead single for Bright Lights but they changed it due to Your Song being used in the advert.

This is a stupid choice if you ask me, one of the new songs should have been used, Human or Home would have worked well.

Your Biggest Mistake is one of the standout tracks on the album, it's a massive fan favourite and would be the best single choice she could make, in my opinon.

This Love (Will Be Your Downfall) is nice but as a single it'll do nothing but flop. Unless Capital FM pick up on it... which isn't really going to happen is it.

aieeeeh i'm not keen on this idea In my opinion This Love is one of the worst off Lights (and Bright Lights for that matter) and there's not really much point in releasing something else anyway seems as Lights (the song) didn't even go top 40 and that had smash written all over it! If she really does have to release something then i would suggest animal or your biggest mistake would be the most likely to crack the top 40.

I do think that the album should be put to bed. However, if there was going to be another single it would have had to have been this or 'Animal' for me.
