Pixie Lott Discography Rate | We have a winner!

Still far too expensive!
I don't think I've ever been a lowest scorer before beyond that 0 for Nickelback!
My commentary was:
I Need a Dollar - 2.5 - This song is generally an annoying earworm I turn off, but at least the original has that bluesy production/voice that makes it pretty - this one strips both back and it’s a big no!
Yep! Stand by it!
Steven's take: "No song title captures Pixie's present-day career like this one."
I know sis has a few terrible songs (that we're getting rid of, thank you), but not at a Nickelback level ddddd.
But yeah, a 2.5 from you is almost a 0 from me, so that says a lot! Also, we're score twins this time.
Scream!
That's why she's been judging on The Voice Kids for a while, right? Bills need to get paid.
I don't know, I like her take. Then again, I also tend to be a high scorer for every questionable cover or Xmas song included in any rate I participate on PJ... so I guess that part of my 'suspect taste' is gonna remain in tact with this rate.
I kind of can't believe @berserkboi gave it a 2.5! *scream*

If I Changed - 6. The melody isn't bad but the production is generic.
I Need A Dollar - 5. I don't like the song but the performance is okay.

Only if you promise not to look at the final result until I reveal it! jk
Ok I figure if I intend to finish this by Xmas (or at least by New Year's) I better do more eliminations a day, at least in the beginning, so here we are!
Ok this one was... interesting when it was first released
At least the music video, 'cause it was never a single and it is nowhere to be found in any streaming platform these days...

A Real good Thing (feat. Shaggy)
Average: 5.579
Max: 8.1 (@saviodxl) 7.3 (@berserkboi)
Min: 4.0 x 4 (@Verandi, @TwistedInnocence, @MilesAngel, @WhenTheSunGoesDown) 5.0 x 3 (@Remorque, @pop3blow2, @BubblegumBoy)
Ok, so the video for A Real Good Thing was released in August of 2016 and in the description of the video it read that it was going to stay in Pixie's Youtube channel for two months only, and then taken down. I mean... why? Wtf marketing team! But well... even in the middle 2018 the video could still be watched in her official channel, so not only they had a terrible idea, they didn't follow the plan!
And yes, it's another cover! It's a version of We've got a Good Thing Going by Michael Jackson, slightly modified to give the song a female perspective (changing pronouns mainly) and adding Shaggy's verses for a more beachy and reaggae-ish vibe.
Well, Pixie is a model of Select Model management and according to them, the idea of the video was to create a piece of content which was fun, but also showcased some of the best talents of the agency, including Pixie, of course, and her boyfriend Oliver Cheshire.
So basically, it was model agency catalogue in form of a music video! Good job label, at least we got some eye candy.
Well, to be honest, I don't think the song is that bad. But tell me your thoughts!

A Real Good Thing (feat. Shaggy) - 7.3 - The video is a little cringe in parts but kinda cute song!
Now you mention the concept - this makes a lot more sense!
I find this a better executed example of the "showcasing models" idea - whether it was aimed that way or not..

I thought the video was kind of cringe but borderline cute but I just couldn’t take to the song that much.
I found it listenable but I wasn’t wanting to sing along at any point, which is why I gave it a 4.

Let's continue, shall we?

You Win is the second to last track of the standard version of Young Foolish Happy.
It's actually a cute love song with lyrics like "La la la la la la la la it's yours every time you win", but might have suffered for its position on the tracklist.
We've said (and will say more times) that Young Foolish Happy might be a way too long pop album for some, so a few tracks get lost in the way and unfortunately get that filler status.

Not @pop3blow2 being the high scorer again! dddd
Also, you let me know if I'm posting the elimations at a too fast pace (or if you think I'm too slow).

I was a low scorer on a song, too so far! So, it not like I've gone completely @Music Is Death. (though, it does seem like I am the Music Is Death in rates they don't participate...ddd)

So Pixie's version to the Tina Tuner classic was included in the compilation Turn Her Up. The name has nothing to do with her debut album title: it included 29 covers of women by women, to raise awarness for International Women's Day in 2019.
Well, I'll just say you need to be brave enough to take on a classic like What's Love Got To Do With It.
Next up: the first collaboration falls.
