BuzzJack Music Forum _ Rihanna _ "Unfaithful" // 2nd Single

Posted by: Kelly 2nd April 2006, 07:44 PM

This track is apparently slated as the second single to be lifted from Rihannas sophomore album entitled "A Girl Like Me" it is a heart-wrenching ballad type, I wasn't keen on first listen, but it is FANTASTIC now, i'm looking forward to see the video for this, good to see Rihanna keeping up the standard after S.O.S, it's looking good for the album so far :thumbup:

I know Music Of The Sun bombed in the US, despite having a #2 single in Pon De Replay the album hasn't even sold 500k, so they must have thought they would cut their losses and move onto a new album, which seems to have materialised really quickly ohmy.gif

Anyone heard the song or would like to express their views on Rihanna? happy.gif



rihanna - unfaithful live
(FLASH MOVIE)

Focusing on progressing as an artist, Rihanna releases 'Unfaithful' - the compelling track of heartbreak. Penned by her label-mate Ne-Yo and Stargate, the song documents the tragic decay of a relationship when another person starts cheating.

track listing

* 1. Unfaithful [Radio Edit]
* 2. SOS [Moto Blanco Remix]

I love SOS and Unfaithful is quite good, but I can't STAND her voice rotf.gif

Posted by: Rob 2nd April 2006, 08:17 PM

I actually downloaded it today and am really impressed as I didn't expect such a good ballad from here so soon. It's penned By Ne*Yo and the album is apparently fantastic...

Posted by: Aly 2nd April 2006, 11:26 PM

S.O.S. is gonna get too overplayed before it's release, they should bring it forward!

Posted by: Allysa 3rd April 2006, 04:15 AM

Are her first two singles going to be one here, or is S.O.S. the only known song on the album so far?
And where did her debut album peak?
And Rihanna is awesome! I love all of her singles, i didnt buy her first album but i will be buying A girl like me. If S.O.S. is the only good song on the album it will still be worth it wub.gif
GO RI RI cheer.gif laugh.gif

I HATE Pon De Replay with a passion, but SOS is quite good! ohmy.gif However, I agree with Martie - her voice is so irritating laugh.gif

I'm already sick of it and haven't even listened to it that much sad.gif It's a great song, but it just lacks something that I can't put my finger on...

Both singles are bonus tracks on the CD I think. Her album peaked at #35 here I think and #10 in the US, but dropped very quickley. SOS is amazing I agree Ally, but I play it too much, and I havent heard Unfaithful yet, but I may download it.

Posted by: Allysa 3rd April 2006, 08:25 PM

so pon da replay is on it ohmy.gif I HAVE TO BUY THIS biggrin.gif

hmmmm i will still get it either way biggrin.gif thank for posting Dan.
If she released more than 2 singles i think her first album would have done better.

Posted by: Kellyfan06 3rd April 2006, 08:47 PM

maybe I think generally the other songs on the CD were quite weak, but the two she released were great

Posted by: Kelly 3rd April 2006, 09:07 PM

Really can't get enough of this song wub.gif

Posted by: Kellyfan06 3rd April 2006, 09:09 PM

I think SOS is better now I have listened, although it may grow on me

Pon De Replay was one of the catchiest songs of last year and I normally despise the genre but I loved that as I did the follow up. 'Music Of The Sun' though quite a bland album - not that many highlights on it. S.O.S is gonna be huge but it's nothign special - nice little sample but rubbish song. 'Unfaithful' however is amazing! Heard it a couple of weeks ago and she's a bit whiney but I adore it wub.gif

Posted by: underneath_it_all 4th April 2006, 12:43 PM

so, wait , SOS is from the 2nd album? its really good i reckon itll go top 5 and i havent heard unfaithful but i do like her sound so hopefully she'll have a continuing career

Posted by: Josh 4th April 2006, 03:15 PM

I hated pon de reply
but i love s.o.s.

Posted by: Allysa 4th April 2006, 06:00 PM

I loved S.O.S. it is officially the song of the year wub.gif

Posted by: Kellyfan06 4th April 2006, 07:44 PM

SOS actually is Ally, I agree cant believe it isnt doing that well in the US, its only at like 35 and is moving up like 2places a wekk

Posted by: Allysa 4th April 2006, 09:01 PM

thats what pon da replay it still is being added alot...

Posted by: Louise 4th April 2006, 09:33 PM

i quite like unfaithful and i love SOS

Posted by: DANCE DJ 5th April 2006, 06:00 AM

no one seems to mention her last single if its lovin that ya want
i love that tune

Posted by: Allysa 5th April 2006, 06:31 PM

i loved that one to the da da da da didy da da didy dada day was ver catchy tongue.gif

Posted by: Jake 1st May 2006, 01:20 PM

Well its the follow-up to "S.O.S (Rescue Me)" and IMO its soo much better than the first single ohmy.gif

Very We-Belong-Together-ish (in terms of how successful I can see it being this summer) and already gaining in airplay and sales in the US with an expected Top 50 debut on the "Hot 100" next week.

The video is premiered Today on TRL:USA so hopefully I'll be able to post it up later today. For now here is a clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlNxSK7yCeA&search=rihanna%20unfaithful

Personally I can see it doing very well both here and abroad biggrin.gif

Posted by: Aly 1st May 2006, 02:04 PM

Nothing like 'We Belong Together' IMO. (thank god)

I really love this, I didn't expect a piano-led ballad from Rihanna. I also wasn't sure if she could sing before this, but this showed me she can. tongue.gif

Posted by: Jake 1st May 2006, 02:06 PM

Indeed the song isnt very WBTish. I menat it in the sense that's the sorta success I expect it to get this summer unsure.gif tongue.gif

Posted by: Aly 1st May 2006, 02:09 PM

Ooooooooooooooops

*Blonde moment*

Posted by: Kelly 1st May 2006, 03:46 PM

AHEM There's nothing wrong with being We Belong Together-ish, it's a cracking track. wub.gif

The album is starting to fall! sad.gif

Posted by: Allysa 22nd May 2006, 04:26 AM

Its frickin HUGE in the US like its getting so much airplay its not even funny! I love the song but she better release it soon after it starts getting airplay as it will get old to ya, still great though.

Posted by: Dazzle 22nd May 2006, 12:37 PM

Well, supposedly it's out here on June 19th so it really should be added to the channels by niw!

Rihannas 3rd release from a girl like me will be "break it off" which will be number one in the uk and usa because it is with sean paul and great... her fourth release is "kisses don't lie but that may change.

Posted by: Kellyfan06 12th June 2006, 07:34 PM

Im pleased about both of those releases... BIO will be huge, Sean Paul + Rihanna = massive... plus its the bonus of being the first single from his new album so its not going to have much affect with it being Rihanna's 3rd releases.... and Kisses Dont Lie is a great side and show a different side to her biggrin.gif

Posted by: Gary. 10th August 2006, 07:21 PM

I Love This Song. I think its one of the best songs on her Girl Like Me album, it was wrote by NE-YO orignally for Christina Milan who declined. I dont think it would have suited Christina Milan anyway.

Posted by: Kalen 10th August 2006, 07:29 PM

I'm surprised she refused! This has turned out to be one of Rihanna's biggest, if not the biggest hit ohmy.gif

Posted by: Gary. 10th August 2006, 07:31 PM

Yeah, Im surprised aswell, maybe she didnt want to go down the whole ballad route, lets just say it would have defintly helped her career if she chose to use that song.

Posted by: Kalen 10th August 2006, 07:39 PM

Yep cause unfortunatly her latest album bombed because it wasn't promoted properly, neither was the single sad.gif

Posted by: Ashley 11th August 2006, 04:06 PM

I thought it was SOS that Christina Milian declined? That's what I heard anyway...

What I like most about the video for this song is the intro bit and when the piano riff kicks in - it's so over dramatic but I guess that suits the song perfectly biggrin.gif

Posted by: jack89 11th August 2006, 04:38 PM

If milian declined that .. i'm very upset sad.gif

Posted by: Tyler 14th August 2006, 03:20 AM

Ok i dont know the name but its very haunting and in the beginning shes like'Oh oh oh oh oh oh" and so on...And then at the chorus its like they played her voice together so it sounds like there are 3 Rihannas singing at the same time...ITS SO GOOD i would go as far as to say its the best remix ever! I would reccomend you all try and download it as its probably the most popular remix of it as its getting radio play in america! You could probably find it by just typing 'Unfaithful Remix'.

MUCH RECCOMENDED.

It's basically the same as the version we all know, but with a rather pointless slow beat added to it.

Posted by: Ashley 16th August 2006, 01:46 PM

I think it's called Starlight Remix but I could be wrong. I really like this too so if someone finds it please let me know wink.gif
