No need for the "I know". 'Thinking Of You' is her best single ever!!

 

I concur! :wub: I wish it could have at least reached the Top 20.

'Whistle' is alright. Although I'm very bored of it now. 'Wild Ones' is SO much better for me. It's probably my favourite Flo song. I would actually go as far as to say it is better than 'Titanium' for me, as it's less shouty.

Can't believe this got to number 1 on the Billboard Hot 100! :(

SO sick of 'Whistle'. 'Good Feeling' and 'Wild Ones' I could understand why they're so huge, but this is terrible ... there's nothing to it at all, the fact that it looks likely to go Top 10 on the YTD chart is just baffling to me personally.

 

I liked Good Feeling (MUCH better than Avicii's Levels), but Wild Ones and Whistle are very boring. I liked Wild Ones when it was first released, but I don't think I had a high opinion on Whistle at all! And his new single is apparently even worse!

And 'Hot N Cold' isn't??? :lol:

"Hot N Cold" and "samey" just doesn't compute, for me it's a cut above everything else she's done.

Agreed. Firework is a close second for me though.

A whistling medley? :manson: I feel dirty for saying this, but bring back Reggie :kink:

Oh well, treat them mean to keep them keen :kink:

By "samey", I assume you either mean WUIV is repetitive or its generic. Well, HNC are both. :lol: The chorus is extremely repetitive and the lyrics are just poor for the most part. Also, its just a standard Dr. Luke/Max Martin production by numbers. Cookie cutter pop in other words. Definitely one of her worst singles ever along with 'Part of Me' and 'California Gurls'. Every other single is at least an 8/10.

Is Reggie not there? I'm not listening this afternoon :kink:

I don't like this presenter at all. He has done the chart update on Weds afternoon on a few occasions as a stand in and he couldn't muster saying the chart backwards.

We need a bit of Gregg clearly.

A shame this has performed so poorly, it's one of their best along with 'Sparks'. Even if it is very Rihanna.

I don't mind Explode, I think their singles have got better each time. Can't say I'm a massive fan though.

This new Cover Drive song isn't bad. Especially sans Dappy.

First time of hearing Explode. It's alright. Cover Drive are going to really struggle with their next album and singles, if they haven't been dropped before then!
