I feel bad watching the video. Apparently Rihanna is sad that video leaked because she wanted it to be special. :(

^ :( oh well, it was worth the wait even though it didn't premiere at the right time :P anything Rihanna does is special to me :wub: :heart:

I absolutley LOVE the video!

The video is absoluetly brilliant :wub:

The problem last era was she just appeared too fake and try-hard in the videos, where as this one is just pure pop perfect Rihanna doing what she does best :heart:

Pretty much what I expected, not her best video but it's still very good ^_^. Visually stunning and she looks gorgeous!

She looks absolutely stunning in the video, although it's slightly boring in places.. no where near as good as the 'Rated R' videos :(

This is a rather epic 'classical' Escala type cover of the song;

 

 

love it :wub: the generic Guetta-esque production put me off Only Girl for ages, but there's actually a really strong pop song behind it and oddly, this version has made me appreciate the original more.

That version is amazing! :o

 

The video is brilliant, I love it, even though it is just simple Rihanna it's amazing. :wub:

Wow I never thought I would see that aspect of this kind of song. Amazing. :wub:

 

Only Girl is becoming one of the favourite Rihanna song. The song is just exciting, it always make me happy and the synths are just lush. :wub:

Only Girl is still very slightly underwhelming but that video really is quite exquisite. Beautiful and matches the song down to a tee.

Apparently, the rumour that Rihanna is performing on X Factor next week is false :(

 

:cry:

 

I hope she'll be performing the following week then. OG needs to go #1!

Oh no :(

:cry:

I was quite surprised they didnt mention who was on next weeks X Factor at all, not even mentioning that Cheryl was performing.

 

I guess in theory she may perform in mid November but then with quite a few acts probably performing then including Westlife, Take that, JLS, Subo, Alex Im not sure when she'd be on.

 

I'm just now hoping she performs on the 31st, Cheryl will definately go #1 in the first week, I just hope Rihanna can climb the following :cry:

So i heard the song for the first time today.

 

It's alright i guess.

 

In terms of eras... Rated R >>>>>>>>>>> GGGB >>>>>>>> Loud >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 1st era.

 

However i liked more songs from the GGGB era :o

A classical version of anything is better than the original. True story.

So is she performing it on the 31st because it was confirmed that she was performing wasn't it?

Perhaps we could just wait and see!

She's performing on the 14th of November (a day before the album's release). I got it from her newsletter ^_^

 

I'm guessing she's performing on that date so get attention on the album. I hope 'OGITW' could still make #1 by that time (if it was blocked by Chezza :drama:)

This sounds AMAZING in a club. Fact.
