My body is READY *.*

It's out in Sweden, waiting game for someone to pop it up online!

@scandipop: It's a 90s house flavoured pop banger with an uplifting screamy chorus, and a lush string outro. It's very VERY good. Well done Loreen.

I love the production on this and the outro is indeed gorgeous, the chorus is great too. Her vocals sound odd in a constant falsetto but good to see her doing something different for her comeback, yet still typically Loreen.

Stunning. Perfect. Amazing.

Posted by: Ryan. 4th March 2015, 11:26 PM

It's fabulous! wub.gif Would fit perfectly on Radio 1 if they weren't so anti-Eurovision with their playlists.

Posted by: randomfurlong 4th March 2015, 11:41 PM

Absolutely gorgeous. I've missed her! I do love a bit of house piano.

Posted by: Liаm 4th March 2015, 11:41 PM

Ha I agree Ryan, if this was Jess Glynne they'd eat it up! What a song though wub.gif

Posted by: *Tim 4th March 2015, 11:45 PM

I am 100% SLAYED


Posted by: Cody Slayberry 4th March 2015, 11:50 PM

This sounds GLORIOUS. heart.gif

On first listen it seems like a very strong comeback and I can't really fault it but for some reason it has left me a little disappointed.

I think it is because I loved her first album so much and she had so much to live up to and such high expectations on her. If this was on her first album I doubt it would be in the top half for me, although that would be very hard to get into I admit. I am sure it will grow more though and I am so happy she is back - can't wait to see what else she has in store for us this era.

I am already SALIVATING for the MF perf this weekend

Posted by: Jonjo 5th March 2015, 02:44 AM

Absolutely love it. I can sort of see where Davidson is coming from, but in all honesty it was a bit of an ask for it to be anywhere near as good as the majority of her first album. But apart from that, it's still a very big and solid 8 out of 10 for me! Sounds like a grower too!

She's been gone for far too long and I've most certainly missed her. <3

Loreen, the pop music slayer! *.*

I for one am slightly underwhelmed sad.gif Love the strings tho

Posted by: J▼hnkm 5th March 2015, 09:15 AM

I like it, but it would be a lot better if I could understand what she is saying. Her diction has always been POOR, but combined with the super high vocals (which I'm not keen on) it just doesn't work for me.

Posted by: ScottyEm 5th March 2015, 09:20 AM

It's, of course, top drawer stuff however I'm not connecting much on the first listen but I can hear it's a grower, which is no bad thing.

Posted by: Jonjo 5th March 2015, 02:55 PM

And just like that, this has already grown on me immensely!

Posted by: *Tim 7th March 2015, 09:02 PM

She slayed her performance tonifht omg

(did I see incorrectly or.did she cover her nipples with her hair only?)

Posted by: Jonjo 7th March 2015, 09:09 PM

Really loved the performance too! Why is she taking so damn long to tour over here? I'm going in a heartbeat! Such a great song too. wub.gif

Posted by: Jonjo 8th March 2015, 09:06 PM

Can't stop watching her performance. I can't get enough of it. wub.gif

Posted by: Draper 20th March 2015, 11:13 PM

Not a scratch on anything from Heal. sad.gif

Posted by: randomfurlong 21st March 2015, 12:45 AM

Totally disagree, this is glorious. I love the piano, her falsetto... it's ethereal.

Posted by: Jonjo 21st March 2015, 03:15 PM

Agreed completely! It's gorgeous and I really love everything about it. She's got it so right, for me.

What was the remix that she performed to? Was it the Kazkay remix? Or are Kazkay just the dancers that joined her half way through?

Posted by: *Tim 21st March 2015, 03:18 PM

Kazkay were the dancers I think! It's a shame this seems to be relatively flopping around Europe tho sad.gif

Perched for the video for this. Has she actually shot it already?

Posted by: Vülker 21st March 2015, 03:52 PM

*Kazaky

Posted by: Liаm 21st March 2015, 04:17 PM

This is still growing on me, it's as good as pretty much all of Heal imo (obviousy not Euphoria and perhaps not My Heart Is Refusing Me or Crying Out Your Name) wub.gif

Posted by: ► ▲ N 21st March 2015, 04:28 PM

well obviously this isn't her 2nd Euphoria but it's another very good song from her! heart.gif

Posted by: Jonjo 17th April 2015, 03:14 AM

The cover for the remix is https://open.spotify.com/track/1rm0iF6j2c9LDB9XxeUdHL! (Img is too big to embed!)

Listen to the "Revisited" version here:

It's brilliant <3 - But hurry with the video already! sad.gif

Posted by: Oricon 18th April 2015, 07:19 PM

The Revisited version is MILES ahead to the original for me. An absolute tune <3

Posted by: Ryan. 7th May 2015, 02:04 PM

The stunning video for the Revisited version of the song has been released today!


Posted by: Jonjo 7th May 2015, 02:18 PM

UGH. Just got to work! Gonna have to watch it later. I don't mind the Revisited version getting a video. I'm slightly preferring that version of this nowdays anyway! ohmy.gif

Posted by: AdamAloud 7th May 2015, 03:57 PM

That is all.

Posted by: Jonjo 7th May 2015, 08:22 PM

LOVE IT.

I can't get enough of her.

Posted by: Conderella 8th May 2015, 11:00 AM

The cover though.



SLAIN

Posted by: Gage 8th May 2015, 06:39 PM

I actually like the original better. mellow.gif

Posted by: Jonjo 8th May 2015, 08:35 PM

Well, both are clear 10/10's. But at this moment in time, the 'Revisited' version is really hitting that spot! *.*

Posted by: dandystar 8th May 2015, 09:03 PM

The original is much better for me too but it's kinda nice to have two versions for different moods.
