Hyped!
I think it's Rihanna again .
omg!!!
Yep - Calvin Harris X Rihanna / This is What You Came For
OMG HYPE
Hopefully I can finally properly love a Rihanna song for the first time in ages!
⚡️⚡️⚡️ ⚡️⚡️⚡️
I have high expectations for this!!!!
!
Bring it on! *.*
YASSSSSSSSSSSSSS !
This will be the only big Calvin Harris song which won't appear on a NOW or any other compilation album due to Rihanna's involvement in the song and she doesn't like her music appearing on compilations. Then again, it's up to him in this case but saying that, Beyoncé appeared on NOW 92 even though she doesn't allow her music to appear on compilations

what well-reasoned foresight
OMFG! ⚡️
Well my excitement for this Calvin single has now seriously grown!!! Rihanna and Calvin are such a good combo as We Found Love proved..
I'm not sure what this will be like but I can't imagine it being a WFL Pt. II especially as Rihanna is now a ~super cool urban ghetto~ artist. I am intrigued as to what sound they go for and I'm sure I won't be disappointed. I expect a high-octane, dark number that wouldn't feel out of place on 'Anti' remixed.
Any ideas when this'll get a release?
It's out tomorrow
I am kind of excited about this, but at the same time want to keep my expectations low as they're both fairly hit and miss.
Honestly, I'm not really excited, just wondered which kind of sound they choose. And - please, Calvin, be clement - I hope he won't release new tracks every week or 2, don't see any sense in it.
We Found Love is possibly Rihanna's most overrated but I do still like it, Calvin has been very hit and miss for me recently but I think Rihanna and him will deliver and I'm excited to hear this!

Clip here, can't tell much but it sounds good! This sounds like it building to a drop or a big chorus.
So so here for this banger.
Not sure about the 'you-ooh' bits, they are a bit annoying and her voice is so distorted she doesn't even sound like her anymore and just sounds like some generic random vocalist.
We will see what the full thing sounds like.
I'm ready for Calvin & Rihanna to go to #1 next week.
AMAZING CLIP!!!
I'm so ready for this song to smash charts everywhere
So HYPED for this!
Will it be on Spotify tomorrow? If so we are looking at the next #1
I am so excited for this, I'm trying not to be because my expectations are probably too high after We Found Love (one of my favourite songs of all time) but it's that very reason I'm excited.
COME ON. DELIVER.
I hope this will be a lot better than Rihanna's recent solo stuff. I'm guessing it will be more pop/dance than her dire urban stuff.
Hopefully we get something half-decent from Rihanna for once. We Found Love was fabulous.
It's fairly in line with HDIYL, but with a less chunky bassline. It's a decent track on the first 2/3 listens!

JESUS THIS IS FIRE
It's nothing innovative or different but my lord what a banger.
Exactly what I expected but also what I wanted 😍
It's good, really good. It's not another WFL or as good.. Buts it's a solid track. I just wish it really took off somewhere, it's not as big as I was expecting
This is such a tune, that chorus is undeniably catchy. My only nitpick is that I wish it sounded a bit more like Rihanna but on the verses you can still tell so don't mind too much.
Actually, when I think about it this reminds me more of 'Thinking About You' than HDIYL.
Sorry to be the cloud of doom but this is very underwhelming for me. I mean, it'll do. It's fun, but if it had not had Rihanna on it and was just an album track I can imagine it'd get much attention.
Sounds like a weaker version of 'How Deep Is Your Love' to be honest. Will inevitably be huge in the UK.
Love it on first listen, exactly what i wanted, nothing like WFL which is great
It's not amazing but I really like it!
I don't like it.
It might grow on me though.
Loving this, its a banging choon
Agreed with the HDIYL similarities (I never really loved it as much as everyone else seemed to) but this sounds like a much better part 2 of it (the chorus gave me some Lean On teas too!)
It's AMAZING!!
Not quite as good as 'How Deep Is Your Love' but it's making a really good first impression on me, so great to have Calvin and Rihanna back together on a song and I also love that it's not a 'We Found Love' part 2, as great as that song is.
Zara Larsson revealed on Twitter that she recorded the demo for this. I have to say, it doesn't sound very distinctly Rihanna, it could be anyone on the track.
Lovin' this. I can imagine everyone playing this song EVERYWHERE.
I agree with Joe that the vocals could really be by anyone here. The song is quite good, I enjoy it, but it doesn't go anywhere really unfortunately.
It all sounds a bit MEH to me.
It's OK, doesn't sound particularly special, but at least it's not awful like HDIYL which others have brought up.
It's...decent. I wasn't left with any strong feelings, but I admire the subtlety, especially coming from Calvin & appreciate that it isn't just an attempt to recreate We Found Love (which is my favourite from both artists and would've been quite hard to top). Just think it could pack a bit more of a punch than it does and it sort of builds and builds in the verses if only to not really go anywhere in the breakdown, hopefully a grower.
I think I agree more with the comparisons to "Thinking About You" rather than HDIYL or WFL. It's like a hybrid of the three.
That said, it sounds pretty nice, but I'm not completely in love with it. I'm pretty sure I'll be obsessed with it in a few days.
It's ok, sounded better on 2nd listen but I am quite disappointed
I don't however really see the comparisons to TAY if I'm honest although that's my favourite track by him.
I'm confused as to why it is so important to people that a song "couldn't be sung by everybody". Like half of the hitsongs could be sang by a lot of people?
I actually disagree with 'Sung by anybody' I instantly could tell it was Rihanna in the chorus
Also I dont get why everyone is saying their 'disappointed'. Would you want another We Found Love, because that would be very boring and even more disappointing. Its clear he wanted to do something and at the same time stick to the same sort of sound of How Deep Is Your Love It was pretty much what I was expecting and wanted
It's not as amazing as I had hoped for, but pretty good. Nice to have another Calvin & Rihanna collab!
Whose singing the chorus???!
Well I'm glad I'm not the only one slightly underwhelmed by this. It's not bad but nowhere near his best.
I wasn't sure when I first heard it this morning as it had no drop but they more I've heard it I've gotten to like it. Very different from the usual Calvin stuff. More calmer
Just heard this before. It's ok but certainly not as catchy as some of his other lead singles. It's a bit dull and not very memorable.
Well that turned out pretty boring sort of just like an inferior version of Thinking About You, and none of the spark or life that made We Found Love good either
This is just another run of the mill crapp dance song. Assuming BJ is lapping this up because of who is involved.
loving the subtlety of this but it needs just a BIT more oomph in the bassness / drums of it to push it further
can tell i'll be obsessed. those chopped up vocals!
Is "This could have been sung by anyone" the new "This song was ghost produced"?
Yeah, this is really shite.
Sorry RiRi, stick to the Anti sound rather than this generic rubbish thanks.
Love love love!
I was fully expecting it to be subtle in comparison to 'We Found Love', so from that perspective I'm not let down by it at all. I really appreciate that it has a different vibe actually.
Is this song reinventing the wheel? Not at all. Is it an enjoyable song for the time being? In my opinion, absolutely! It's on repeat.
Pleasant enough but nothing to get me off my seat exactly.
The you parts are a bit too repetitive.
This is an utter jam. Hopefully it'll be the big summer smash it deserves to be. I love how it's the complete other side of the spectrum to 'We Found Love' and I actually think it works in it's favour, hugely. So feel good and care free <3
This doesn't deserve to be number one.
My mum recognised that it was Rihanna singing, without me telling her ;o
I'm not sure how I feel, I like the sound but part of me wishes that it was a little bit darker.
Zara was originally meant to be on the song and she recorded the demo for it, I hope it leaks soon.
I like it, the verses, bridge/hook and production are really great and Rihanna sounds good on it. The 'you-ooo-ooh-ooh-ooh' chorus suits the subtlety of the track, as much as part of me wished for something bigger.
As much as it's one of my favourite songs of the decade, I respect them for not putting out a We Found Love clone as I doubt that would have turned out welll.
It feels too lazy, any song that just repeats the same word over and over again as the chorus and has about 10 words of lyrics isn't my kinda song.
The production isn't all that either, just Calvin Harria by numbers and sounds like it was designed to be catered for Capital FM.
I'm not hugely impressed by this. It's mostly "you-oo" over and over, and we know they're both capable of so much more.
That said, I do enjoy it, but it's a bit of a disappointment considering who's involved.
I wasn't hugely impressed either on first listen, probably because of my high expectations. And because it's reminiscent of Thinking About You, which is like Calvin's worst song of the past 5 years for me. You know I love me a big breakdown.
HOWEVER, maybe it's because I want to love it, I can't stop playing it. I've become quite hooked on it.
I'm sorry but this just isn't enough to grt me off my tractor.
This is so breezy and wonderful and I disagree that it's "typical Calvin". It's a shame some people aren't latching onto this the same way, but it's fast becoming one of my faves of the year.
Also, I think Rihanna is instantly recognisable on this, so I also disagree with the comment that this sounds like it could be anyone.
I am also another one that doesn't see how this track is anything but generic, but I prefer it to Work.
considering 'thinking about you' is pretty much my favourite calvin harris song i am SO into this now
I really like this, it's just disappointing that it wasn't something more revolutionary after We Found Love.
This is so addictive but if it wasn't with Rihanna I wouldn't care for it at all. She should've featured on HDIYL which is actually a tune and a half.
This sounds so damn good in the sun 💃🏿
This is pretty banging really. I do think I prefer We Found Love but the ooh bits are extremely catchy and it sounds phenomenal when loud and sunny. A bit gutted it probably won't be a #1 due to Drake, he's had his time. I know Calvin's videos are usually dreadfully boring as well but I think this deserves at least a semi-interesting one, hopefully with plenty of Rihanna too.
This is incredible and it's gonna sound amazing over the summer months
Could someone post a dowload link for this song?
Will this get a music video? (with Rihanna?).
This song is just banal.
He tweeted this on May 28:
Video for this is finally out Friday
It'll get a boost then for sure.
I don't think it'll have much impact at all. It's sold consistently well enough without the video and it's been long enough now. The same thing happened for Jack U's Where Are U Now.
Music Video:
Calvin's Emil Nava videos are very rarely interesting and this isn't much of an exception but I could just watch Rihanna being Rihanna for hours I think. It helps that this is still a massive tune too.
Decent video, she looks great. They made more effort with it than I expected.
I actually love it, I thought it'd be more simple to be honest!
She looks amazing.
She does look good. AND I'M SEEING HER TONIGHT.
I was hoping for a more summer-inspired video to match the song but the video is OK I guess. I'm surprised they found time to have Ri feature in it at all.
The video is quite nice, indeed. She really does look incredible.
This song is amazing
So following reports that came out today, Taylor's rep has now confirmed that she was one of the co-writers of this song and used a pseudonym to avoid detection. She seemingly also recorded a demo version so it would make sense that you can hear little bits of Taylor throughout the track - mainly in the ooohs!
The song is soaring up US iTunes as a result of the Calvin vs. Taylor fallout. Rihanna wins
Yes, and Calvin outed what a massive BITCH she is on Twitter. Just check out his timeline.
#TaylorSwiftIsOverParty has apparently been trending since !!!
This is still pretty mch the weakest single Rihanna has ever released. Well I'll say my least favourite rather than "weakest", because I can see how people like it but I just cannot get into it at all. I think I was so hyped for it as Anti was a bit less commercial than we were used to from Rihanna on the whole so I was looking foward to a more poppy dance song, but this just fell flat for me.
This never caught on for me. It's not annoying or irritating or bad or anything...It's just very MEH. It's the kind of song Calvin would release as an instant grat instead of as a big single. If Rihanna wasn't attached to it, and it has been Ina, as with HDIYL, I think it would have been a Hype-type flop.
we all knew she was a mega bitch anyway tho no?
