I thought it was pretty obviously a boy personally :lol:

Me too!

I never questioned his gender either, reminded me of the young boy that used to be in the Bob Sinclar videos!

Looks very distinctly male to me, in all the 50 odd times I've seen the video?

I guess there must have been a lot of androgenous boys in your schools then, especially ones who still had teddy bears... :lol:

Based on the comments on the music video, you're not the only one. :lol: Most of the comments refer to him as "kid" or "child", and there's a few saying they can't actually tell.

 

He looks like a boy to me aswell though. It's just the long hair that throws people off I think.

The Ni**as in Paris "video" is out, it should help it a bit.

 

It's the kid from Super 8 isn't it..?

 

Love that Gotye's finally #1

20% should be enough to gap less than 5K in the weekend...

STIUTK for number 1!

Wild Ones' video has premered - should help it out a bit!

I really don't feel qualified to speak on this, since I'm not a girl. :lol: I'm not capable of mind-reading, but based on the fact that so many girls listen to those songs and love them, and the fact that I've personally never heard a girl complain about any lyrics of those songs before, I'm really not sure if they find it that demeaning. I'm sure some do obviously, but these songs get so popular, that I think most don't mind. Sometimes I think men have more of a problem with the lyrics than the women themselves. :lol:

 

And Without You is closer to Titanium both lyrically and musically than it is to Sexy Chick, Sweat, etc. in my opinion.

 

Also, I think a large factor as to why Sexy Chick was such a bigger hit than When Loves Takes Over was because Akon is a lot more popular than Kelly Rowland. So there's that to take into account too. Maybe if the vocalists swapped around, When Love Takes Over would've sold more (we'll never know for sure though).

 

And finally, Titanium is kind of like a "ballad" (by David Guetta's standards). Looking at other artists, it seems almost everybody at the moment leads their album campaigns with an upbeat song. So if David Guetta does that for his next album again, I wouldn't lose all hope just yet. Although hopefully his sound won't be commercial by then, so he'll flop anyway.

 

I agree that David Guetta should release Titanium next in the US. It doesn't look likely that he will though. :(

 

I only brought up Without You because it was the only post-album single so far and so the only one we could compare to re: rising album sales! I'd actually be happy if he did more songs like Without You as well. It's really nice and not anywhere near as bad lyrically as usual. Your point about Titanium being a ballad by his standards is interesting I guess but it's still a danceable track so I don't think it really makes a difference.

 

Hoping Lana can climb to #8 this week but it depends on it staying in the top 10 with the highest version.

Want U Back up to #35 now. Gives me mild hope of it doing OK now. 59p and a Dancing On Ice slot would even give it top 10 potential.

Yes, that's true. I do wonder what he'll do for his next album. I still think he'll have those "girls are really hot" songs always, but he might have some more different songs after the success of Without You and Titanium. If his next album is released in 2013 though, it's possible he might need to change his sound a bit again to stay relevent. Hopefully the re-releases of Sexy Chick he's doing at the moment won't still be getting to #1 4 years afterward.

I don't like the song very much, but that's a really good video.

that "want u back" song is shit and doesnt deserve to be in the top 10

that "want u back" song is shit and doesnt deserve to be in the top 10

 

It's better than everything in the current top 10 except Born To Die and Titanium......

Thats all the more reason why it shouldn't be there. Why replace shit with more shit
