Another amazing remix
Possibly my favourite of them now, so many good ones though! When 1.38 hits...oh my LORD. |

Almost one year on since it's release, what's everyone's opinions on arguably the most divisive single in Rihanna's discography?
Personally I loved it straight away and it still sounds as fresh as it did a year ago. A bit gutted it never managed to make number 1 here in the UK but it's success in the States was phenomenal! Probably one of her signature tunes already. |

I remember being disappointed at first because as urban bangers go, BBHMM is her best. But when I kept hearing this out if became basically my favourite of 2016 very quickly.
It's within my top 5 songs from her: Man Down > Diamonds > BBHMM > What's My Name > Work |

I do like Work but could never bring myself to love it, I do much prefer the Lost Kings remix for some reason.

After going off it for a long while this has reconnected with me recently I'd agree it's already one of her signature hits tbh!

Still not one of my favourites of hers but it's definitely up with Umbrella, We Found Love etc. as her biggest or signature hits I agree! I do like it and always get my life when it comes on out, I just don't tend to go back much.

Wrong choice for the lead single (should've been the second single imo) but I still really like it.
I love slurring along with it. |

What do you think should've been lead? I really think 'Love on the Brain' should've been the lead single, at least in Europe. It's more of an album seller than 'Work' and I believe it's commercially more viable to release a radio friendly song first and then a streaming friendly song*. Of course this is speculation but I really think it would've helped to release LOTB first. Not that Anti hasn't performed very well in Europe regardless (except the UK). *I think so because radio friendly first singles like 'Love on the Brain' would've have got a streaming boost for being ''the big, new single'' that it's not getting now as a fourth. Also, I noticed that radio is hesitant to play LOTB, at least here in the Netherlands, most likely because she alienated us by releasing urban singles from Anti first (and I believe this is true for the whole of Europe). On the other hand I think 'Work' would've performed poorly on radio and very well on streaming regardless of when it was released. |
