Perrie - "Rollercoaster" + Debut Album

Tears is the better song and I'm glad she has this less GP pandering side to her, I was afraid her album would be a German singer-songwriter, voice + piano + guitar affair.
 
I'd argue Tears is even more GP pandering to be honest. It wasn't even meant to be a single until they saw Espresso smashing, right? The problem is, Espresso is lightning in a bottle whereas this just isn't very good. And I say that as someone who liked Forget About Us (though I don't think it was first single worthy).
 
Whew the heartburn! I just thought the first song was so abhorrent that I thought a little celebration was due with this one for sounding half a degree less lukewarm! Sorry for being positive I guess!
 
Yeah, I'm side-eying Dipesh so hard for green-lighting Tears. Everything goes through him and he probably thought the disco elements were similar when Tears has nothing else going for it.
 
She/her
Why do I see a covers album in her future? Not that I'd mind, but her covers thus far have been much better than her singles.

Honestly, I think part of the problem with Perrie is that she absolutely loves singing, but maybe isn't as fussed about the music itself. She was never into songwriting the way Leigh-Anne and Jade were. And even now as a solo artist, I personally just don't feel like her heart is in it. And to be fair, she's already achieved so much with Little Mix, maybe she just isn't that fussed about trying to also be successful and get huge chart positions with her solo music.

I think she'd probably be delighted to do a covers album and sing her heart out on all her favourite songs just for the fun of it.
