Follow up to 'Fast Car' released today, and you can listen here! I'm liking it on first listen, sounds great for summer and will be interesting to see if he can avoid being a one hit wonder.

This is much more bearable than 'Fast Car', although those nasty cheap Casio keyboard synths which were so prevalent in 'Fast Car' make an appearance still.

Passable. I'll probably forget how it goes by the end of the day, but at least it's not as bad as Fast Car.

Huge step back from Fast Car. This is boring...

Great that he's still got that Lindequist-like sound again but the vocals are very empty for me.

I've concluded that this is probably my favourite chart hit so far this year ohmy.gif So infectious.

I really didn't expect anything good at all after the crap Fast Car, I'm quite intrigued to see where he goes from here...will he be a two-hit wonder or could he actually build a decent career?

I know I am in the minority with this but the cutesy lyrics about love in the song and the way they are sung in the similarly cutesy R&B style that has become overused in dance music recently really puts me off the record.

The drop is good with nice trumpets but there really needed to be more instrumentation (some disco strings would have been nice) and more dancey, less acoustic verses.

It is better than Fast Car though.
