Default Poor Lead Singles?
How often do you hear an album once it's released and think "why was this chosen to represent an album"

Some choices

Youtube video

(at least 5 songs on the album are better than this)
Youtube video

(bitch no)
Youtube video

The rest of the album>> this
Youtube video

(her worst lead single to date)
Youtube video

Might just be me, but I thought this was her weakest lead single to date


thoughts?

Roar is one that springs to mind, but Prism is pretty disappointing overall tbh

The album was weak overall, but Roar was the obvious lead, anything else wouldn't have done nearly as well

Love Rebecca, but Nothings Real But Love was easily the weakest song on Heaven. Diamond to Stone or Too Good To Lose would have been much better leads IMO.
