I expected CKB that low. Far too much hate towards it. :(

What's there to hate, though? :( The vocals are stunning!

The best thing about CKB is how stunning she looks in the video. It didn't really deserve 'single status', there were better songs on the album. It's good, but not great and I'm glad it's not done that well on this.

What songs are better than it, though? :unsure: The only song I'd say it has a shred of competition with is Only Girl (In the World).

it's just SUCH a borefest. no thanks.

How on EARTH is Complicated so low?!

I would have preferred 'Man Down' being pushed more in the UK. 'Complicated' is better than CKB too. I love 'Skin' and 'Fading' too, but they are strictly album tracks and would be terrible singles. (All the other singles are better than CKB too)

 

This post has concluded that CKB really is my least favourite song on 'Loud' :lol:

Even worse than the monstrosity, S&M?

I really wish that I gave Complicated more points. :( It's grown on me so much over the last couple of days. :wub:

Shame on you for not appreciating it's beauty in the first place!! :angry:

 

Also, CKB hate is NOT appreciated! So beautiful. :(

Really?! S&M is my favourite Rihanna track! I don't mind CKB but the single release killed it for me.

All tracks on Loud are very amazing. I don't even really have a favourite, as it's such a consistent and well-structured album. CKB might be the best, it might be Only Girl, it might be Fading, Man Down or S&M too. I can never decide.

California King Bed was very good to start off with but the amount of airplay it got when it was released killed it for me. There are some really nice aspects and elements of that song though. ^_^

Man Down >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

(such a strong set of singles from Loud, but CKB is so dreary and dull in comparison).

Really?! S&M is my favourite Rihanna track! I don't mind CKB but the single release killed it for me.

It's just a rather filthy song, although that's what she's reduced herself to these days anyway, isn't it? Filth... :rolleyes:

I don't really see how references about sex in a song make a song bad and an artist look disgusting? S&M has so much more meaning to me than what you're suggesting as well.

Oh please, she has one of the most provocative and explicit attitudes of a pop star...

 

And a song doesn't have the same meaning to absolutely everybody. I was explaining what it feels like the song means to me. :)

Why is this reveal so slow :(? One of the only rates I am actually interested in as well.

Because I am in my final year of uni and I am stressed okay :(.

 

I WILL TRY AND DO IT ASAP.

Its filth is what makes it undeniable.

The section opens up with two rather sexy songs - "Break It Off" from Rihanna's second album, and "Push Up On Me" from her third, the former being my favourite track not to be released as a single (at least in the UK) from A Girl Like Me. They're followed by a sweet-but-dull love ballad from the same album, her 2008 duet with rapper T.I. (which samples the European classic "Dragostea Din Tei") and one of the more surprising songs to have reached this stage - the will.i.am-featuring "Photographs" from Rated R (which somehow still has 7 more tracks to appear!)
