* SignatureSong: "Rather Be", "Rockabye" and, to a lesser extend, "Symphony".

* EarWorm:
** Just ''try'' to get the violins from "Rather Be" out of your head. You can't.
** The blipping synth line of "Symphony" is a close second.
-->''"And now your song is on repeat. And I'm dancing on to your heartbeat."''
** The infectious synth bass and strings in "Solo" and the pre-chorus:
-->''"I wanna whoop-whoop-whoop but I'm brokenhearted"''\\
''"Cry-cry-cry but I like to party"''\\
''"To-to-touch but I got nobody here on my own"''

** "Rockabye", a song about a single mom promise to protect and provide her baby a better life.
** "Symphony" features a singer confessing their love and comparing love to beautiful symphony. The music video really drives it home where a composer lost his lover in a tragic car accident and as a tribute composes a symphony for him while his deceased lover watches on proudly towards the center stage.

* PainfulRhyme: "Rockabye" has this in spade in each of its 3 pre-chorus, with [[RhymingWithItself repeating]] "love" and "life" thrice ''each''.

* BrokenBase: While Anne-Marie's verse in "Rockabye" receives critical acclaim, Sean Paul's appearance has critics and fans divide about how good or even necessary he is. It's very telling that whenever there is a fan cover, Paul's verse is usually the one that get reduced or even cut altogether.
