Over the past few weeks, Ellie Goulding’s “Army” had seemingly emerged as the planned follow-up to “On My Mind.” Goulding performed the song during the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, and it was added to the Interscope radio team’s promotional Top 40/pop playlist.
Plans have apparently changed.
Thursday afternoon, Interscope’s team replaced “Army” on the promotional playlist.
Now representing Goulding — and her “Delirium” album — is “Something In The Way You Move.”
Illustrated by the “Army” removal, inclusion on the playlist is not definitive confirmation of a radio push. It is certainly not tantamount to announcing an official impact date.
It does, however, reveal the label’s current mindset. And that current mindset favors “Something In The Way You Move” as the second “Delirium” single.
Fans should anticipate the next Goulding single — “Something In The Way You Move” or otherwise — formally impacting the pop format in early 2016.
