Massive jam, I wish it was released earlier in the campaign becuase it suffered from being the 5th single. Soooo underrated, I love it when it comes on on a night out.

I do like it but I kinda agree with the first four singles before it and probably would've released Legendary Lovers before it too. It's probably more suited to album track or late in the era single because it is a little on the basic side. Saying that, it's rather catchy and th video is another great one from her and it did give her another certified single after all wub.gif

Huge fave! wub.gif I just loved hearing it on the radio because it stood out so much, shame it didn't get more airplay. One of my local stations still plays it though!

Really crap.

Honestly this just didn't work as a single at all, I liked it as an album track it's a fun pop song with some pretty good synths, but releasing it as a single, especially a 5th single it was just odd and it's chart performance proves that and ended the album campaign on a limp note, because out of the 5 singles only 2 of them were real hits. There were much better songs that could have been released instead such as 'Walking On Air' or 'Legendary Lovers'.

Although I did like the video, definitely one of the better videos to come out of this era, with it's really fun vibe and captures the fun nature of the song really well with it's bright colours. In all though the song was just okay and not something I go back to that much anymore.

Definitely a bop, I agree with Joe it should probably have been released earlier in the campaign but at the same time I wouldn't have changed any of the singles other than Birthday, perhaps even one single earlier would've been good laugh.gif

I really liked this as an album track, probably moreso than as a single and I'm still not convinced it works as one.

Good video though.

Not really a huge fave of mine sad.gif grew on me when it got released as a single but still one of her weakest.
