I've only just looked at the tracklist (dumb) and interesting that it's mainly album tracks! I've also only actually heard two of those (plus the original of "Say My Name"), so it'll be near-enough to a whole new album of material for me anyway! I'm excited :D

Excited for the new single, but it does all seem a bit cheap. I hope it doesnt go down the same road Nelly Furtados GH went down ...

Looking forward to hear Nuclear! The rest of it looks indeed a bit cheaptastic sadly..

lol @ Beyonce misleading people with 'the first original Destiny's Child music in eight years!'

Hard to know how this will do, it is very misleading which isnt fair, they are trying to make out its new when really it is a cheap cash in. I wonder will they do any promotion for it as a group, if they did it would make it all a but more worth while.

Pedestrian but the production is slick. That's my entire opinion.

Embedded song.

Well it was always going to be a mediocre song, so that when B comes back with her music, people ain't like "we want Destiny's Child back".

That's how I'd describe it - I can tell it's going to grow on me massively though. I don't think Daniel's prediction is likely though, why would they purposefully release a song that they think is bad? :huh:

thumbs up

though i was kind of expecting a mid-song kelly dance break

this > say my name right now

 

1:41 helpppp

this > say my name right now

Really? I find it kind of boring, to be honest. It's not bad, but it's definitely not my favourite DC song, by quite a margin.

After my initial disappointment, I'm very much enjoying this song. It doesn't reach the heights of classic Destiny's Child material, but it;s bloody addictive. It feels so slick and SENSUAL, I feel as if it's breathing on me as I listen to it. (weird but idk how to explain it)

aye it's them chill vibes

Nuclear will be 'album only' on iTunes when Love Songs come out so no chance of it charting, not that it would have done much anyway. Nice enough song for an album track, lovely production but the melody isn't all that.

I'm not sure the album has any chance of charting (at least decently anyway) :lol::( Amazon have dispatched my copy, but they've not dropped the price even lower than it was before. This is seeming an even more pointless release by the day.

This is #31 on the chart update, which is surely some kind of miracle given the complete lack of promotion?! I'm listening now, and although it's nice to listen to (I envision my Valentine's Day being spent listening to it. Alone) there is a clear sense of their killer hits being absent. "Emotion" is a lot better than I remember it being though. "If You Leave" is very late-90s in its production as well, which was a nice break from the slower songs. How bizarre of them to include Kelly's "Heaven" from Simply Deep though! :lol:

 

Edit: I'm not liking this "Say My Name" remix at all! It's one thing completely changing the structure of the song, but another having that "sexy" guy's voice speaking over the whole thing...

It's not bad actually! And Nuclear is growing.
