Posted March 8, 201213 yr 9U_1qgh4eS4 Lead single from their debut album which is titled 'Bajan Style'. Definetly their best single to date I think, wasn't what I was expecting though. Not so sure it sounds very hit worthy, but I am loving it quite a lot. Doesn't sound as cheap or as dated as 'Twilight' and 'Lick Ya Down'.
March 8, 201213 yr Huge step down from Twilight for me but I still really like it. It's just that Twilight is one of my favourite songs of the year to date!
March 8, 201213 yr Hmm, not AS good as Twilight but good to see another change of direction, this is shaping up very well for the album. Probably a low top 10 though, depends when they release it.
March 8, 201213 yr Very instant, I really like it just after the one listen. It sounds a bit like What's My Name.
March 8, 201213 yr Not very instant on first play (at least compared to 'Twilight'), but I suspect this will be a grower.
March 8, 201213 yr I do like it, it's kinda weird and not what I expected, but I can see it growing..
March 8, 201213 yr I think 'Twilight' is going to be their only BIG hit, but this could definitely score them a third consecutive top 10 (I mean, they had enough of a fanbase to get a #1 single). Agree with the Rihanna / 'What's My Name?' comparisons - the production in the first verse sounds almost identical. I'm sure a critic or two will put them supporting Rihanna on her 'Loud' tour and the production for 'Sparks' together.
March 8, 201213 yr Quite like this on first listen, and it sounds like a grower! Lick Ya Down >>>> Sparks > Twilight for me so far, but I grew to really like Twilight. Dunno why I love Lick Ya Down so much :wub:
March 8, 201213 yr I really like this after one listen! I can definitely hear the 'What's my Name' comparisons, but it doesn't take away from the song at all.
March 8, 201213 yr I really think 'Twilight' sounded more like 'What's My Name' than this does. I'd say 'Twilight' is a nice catchy song (although nothing overly special), this is very plain and ordinary and 'Lick Ya Down' is terrible. This act have no identity though.
March 8, 201213 yr Quite a non-entity really. Twilight's only saving grace was it's catchiness, but this song doesn't have anything going for it. It'll easily be a top 5 hit though, mainly because Capital will bludgeon it to death.
March 8, 201213 yr I really think 'Twilight' sounded more like 'What's My Name' than this does. I agree. In my opinion, this song is good, but much worse than Twilight and much better than Lick Ya Down. It will probably get an almost identical promotion campaign to what Lick Ya Down and Twilight got (i.e. being played once every 2 hours on Capital for 3 months), so I think it'll have success inbetween what their other two singles had. So I think maybe chart at #5.
March 8, 201213 yr Quite like this on first listen, and it sounds like a grower! Lick Ya Down >>>> Sparks > Twilight for me so far, but I grew to really like Twilight. Dunno why I love Lick Ya Down so much :wub: I love Lick Ya Down also. For me; Lick Ya Down >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Twilight >>>> Sparks
March 9, 201213 yr Really liking this. I can't believe that they are getting big hits though. As much as I love 'Twilight' (definitely in my top 10 (maybe top 5) songs of the year so far), I really didn't think it'd go all the way and top the chart, even with Capital's ridiculous playing of it. Hopefully this does well for them and I am actually rather anticipating their album quite a bit now. 'Twilight' >>>>> 'Sparks' >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 'Lick Ya Down' Can't believe they went from something as shit as LYD to something like 'Twilight' :wub:
March 16, 201213 yr The video to 'Sparks' is here. i_MbWx8BUx8 Bleh. Anyone else think this song doesn't last long enough? :lol:
March 16, 201213 yr Author Yeah it's ridiculously short, feels like it could do with another verse at least. Still loving it though, I maintain that it is easily the best of their singles, the production is much less cheaper sounding than 'Twilight' and 'Lick Ya Down'.
March 28, 201213 yr OMG! This just got amazing! It really, quite beautifully, grew on me. Still a month until it gets released though. :( Come on, I'm ready to loon over you loads, guys. *makes Capital station of choice for the next month*
March 28, 201213 yr Absolutely OBSESSED with this band now. :D Sparks definitely is too short. I love the middle 8 and T-Ray's verses, plus the chorus is so addictive. Love the video as well, Amanda looks stunning. Can't wait for this album! And i'm SO seeing them live if they do a tour. :o
March 29, 201213 yr Have to say loving Sparks at the moment - so much better than LYD and Twilight too.... Can't say i'm a fan of the video though - was expecting something a bit more moody than ride in a 4 by 4 in the sun
