Still not too keen on this. As you all know I'm a big fan.. but was expecting a lot better.. Its an okay song and I think it will grow on a lot more people once the video is out.. but I really can't listen to it without getting annoyed unlike the other singles

Oritse has said the 2nd album is 10x better than the first though.. so at least there will be some improvement and the producers they are working with are a big step up from the first album too.. Hoping the 2nd single is a lot better too and not a let down like this

Hoping they have a collaboration or two on this album too.. They worked with Jay Sean recently.. so hopefully that will make the album

This really isn't as bad people on here make it out to be :lol:

 

This is probably their 'Long Hot Summer' i.e. a 'test the water' song that won't do as well. Right now I don't see this going to #1 and then the female artist bummers going ' LOL ZOMG :rofl: ' then a much better will come out at the time their album is out with an X Factor performance and then another big album will follow and will do a lot better than Alexandra again.

 

And to those who talk about autotune, of course it is! All songs like these are autotuned because for some reason it's the fashion right now.

This is definitely going all the way to #1. A new non-album JLS single is the nearest guarantee you can get to an instant chart topper that there is these days.

I absolutely despise Boom Boom Pow but I'd happily be forced to listen to it on repeat for an hour over this :puke2:

 

Naturally my 13 year old sister has lapped it up <_<

 

ditto :(

 

This is really growing OFF me now, Im surprised Jay-Z has agreed to work with them when this is the stuff they produce- their other songs were generic and throwaway, but harmless and showed they were very good singers- they dont need all this autotune

 

tbh my sister is the main reason i hate JLS- I used to not mind EIL, until I started hearing it 20 times a day <_<

They will launch the album off a much safer song.

Agreed although I can't see it matching BA and EIL for first week sales.

I think they just wanted to try something different but I think they probably would have recorded much stronger songs judging by the producers..

Anyone interested heres a list of most of them http://www.jlsofficial.com/forums/viewthread/99753/

 

Most of their fanbase hated it at first and now love it.. No competition at the moment in their release week so I'm sure this will still go number 1.. already number 1 on HMV pre-orders with around 7 weeks till release week.. Think this will do well despite most people not being too keen at the moment.. I remember when Beat Again was out a lot of people thought it was cheesy, were bored of it, hated the music video etc and that still sold 100k+ and has sold around 400k+ now.. and they went on to win a MOBO & Brit Award for it

It'll go to #01, but have a pretty $h!t chart run I reckon.

 

And it's more pathetic to say 'they'll do better than Alexandra yet again' just to rile fans. :rolleyes:

American car? :o

 

I still don't like this song but I do think it'll be a hit for them.

Yet another group of 'pop stars' who, after a short holiday in L.A will comeback with full on American accents..... :rolleyes:

The video looks very generic, but a little better than the previous three.

 

I think the song will go to #1, but have a pretty poor chart run and quite weak sales (for JLS). The second single will no doubt be a lot safer.

 

It is really growing on my now :s

I dont think ive listened to this since the first time i decided to play it. Never will i put my ears through so much again.. And this comes from a guy who likes seeing Kesha live...

:lol: Same, I've heard it once, and that was once too much. I think Ke$ha is great live

Imo its a grower.. Hated it at first and couldn't understand why they would release it as their first single.. but now I like it

I don't think much to their new song. Heard it tonight for first time on radio 1. They are trying too hard by going down the route of keeping in with the current "urban" sound. This is their weakest single to date by far.

Yah i like her live too but you know what some people think :(
