It was the first lead single not to hit number one since Overload. The end of their "Imperial Phase" I guess

Ghost probably won't chart!!

It's crazy, I hear it on the radio and it's being hyped. Plus is a good song. I guess it's hard for legacy bands now. I bet if Lola Young sang it, it would hit the top 10.

The harmonies of course but an underrated feature is that their music incorporates lots of different genres and pop styles. I mean you have the songs that sound very 80s (Freak Like Me, Whatever Makes you Happy, Flatline etc) and stuff that is a bit 60s (Girls, Soul Sound) and songs like Overload have touches of R&B. I mean Flatline itself sounds 80s like I said but it's also 90s in places and a callback to their first album. Everyone likes to compare them to Girls Aloud but I think only a few songs sound them, maybe Round Round is the most obvious.
