June 13, 201411 yr I can't say it doing much either personally, I don't really feel like there's much hype around it. YET. There's time left yet though, and I may be letting my opinion of the song cloud my judgement. I can see a slightly better run than Boomerang as it stands but I do believe she's on Chatty Man tonight, so who knows, maybe it will start gathering hype when people are actually aware of it. It doesn't sound like a big hit to my ears but then again, neither did Fancy, which I now adore and has blown up.
June 14, 201411 yr Am I the only one who can't stand when she adds in commentary throughout her performances? Like how many times do you have to shoutout Alan Carr? I think that type of thing is only acceptable during concerts and festivals, but maybe it's just me. Looks like the performance helped her pre-orders a bit but the single is back out of the Top 400. I really hope airplay picks up.
June 15, 201411 yr She led a girlband that sold more copies of their first album than all of Girls Aloud's singles and albums did combined? That's quite a feat, no? Cheryl got where she is by playing the victim. Everyone felt sorry for her.. That's it. And I like Cheryl's music but she has not shown for a good few years that she's sassy or hilarious. In fact, she's kept quiet because she's so bland she's had nothing to say. A 'girlband'? A 'girlband'? They were by far and way the blandest girlband since Cleo! And let's face it, it was just Nicole with a bunch of backing singers being handed lyrics to sing and told to girate. World. Class. apart from strong material. And I feel like she's lacking identity musically aswell, it feels like a case of throwing shit at a wall and seeing what sticks. This. No identity. Bland and rubbish. Out of all people I wouldn't have thought you would be the one to have such basic stan VS stan arguments here. Cheryl's singles and personality are miles above Nicole's, in my opinion, but I won't go on a vendetta against someone who would think the opposite. "SHE'S BETTER, FACTTTT!1!!!" or "SHE'S MORE INTERESTING, PERIODDD!!!11!" are such lame comments to make. I don't even get how this started but what's the point of bringing Cheryl into this thread? It's funny that you all claim Nicole is far superior than boring Cheryl but in the end you always feel the need to compare Nicole to Cheryl, as if outstaging Cheryl was her ultimate goal in life. If Nicole is so amazing why don't you compare her to her fellow American colleagues instead like Beyoncé or Gaga? I love how this statement doesn't say much and could be accurate for 90% of singles released. :lol: This as well. In 2014, Cheryl and Nicole are at the same level. I expect Your Love and Crazy Stupid Love to perform similarly well. Trolololololol. Cheryl really blows Nicole out the water in personality, style, music, musical direction and likeability. Sorry bout it!
June 15, 201411 yr But WHAT personality though? I never see any of it in interviews, while she's judging on X-Factor etc. Plus she can't even sing and Nicole can, but that's another matter entirely...

June 15, 201411 yr Plus she can't even sing and Nicole can, but that's another matter entirely... Well evidently she can, she got voted through every week in a talent show 11 years back. :P Besides, it annoys me when people constantly mention Cheryl's voice, you don't NEED to have the best voice ever to be a singer, look at Kylie and Britney. It's about the whole package, which Cheryl has. (rant over)

It's about the whole package, which Cheryl has. (rant over) Who said anything about NEEDING a good voice? You don't need to be a good singer to be a popstar but to be a singer, you do NEED to be able to sing. And when you're a 'singer' what do you want people to mention? What a ridiculous argument! If everyone just mentioned what she looked like, you'd say 'it's not all about looks' Also.. The 'whole package' includes having a good voice and that is something that Cheryl lacks. Just about holding a note does not constitute being able to sing. I'm sorry but if, having seen her interviews, you don't think Nicole has a personality.. Then it's cool. You're obviously being ignorantly blinded by your disdain.. But I'm sure she's not losing any sleep over it :lol:

And Cheryl's voice might not be to your taste or whatever but she CAN sing, regardless of what you think. And Nicole definitely does have a personality, I'm not denying that, but as Rob said earlier in the thread, she does kinda lack something in the whole package which is why she's not done quite as well as Cheryl IMO. I'm not hating on her, I'm a fan of Nicole's, I'm just airing my opinion.
June 15, 201411 yr I like Cheryl personally but she doesn't have "it" in the same way Britney does, Britney is just something else, a one of a kind. Cheryl's voice isn't even that bad though, nor is Britney's - they aren't exactly Whitney Houston and autotune can work magic but you do have to have somewhat of a good voice in the first place... But that's another matter entirely nothing to do with this single. In regards to Nicole, her material is about on par with Cheryl for me and they're both stunning, they both look like popstars and can dance, but Nicole has a much better voice. Cheryl must have something more though seeing as she's so much more popular, plus she's more of a big name so she sells herself really.

I'm not hating on her, I'm a fan of Nicole's, I'm just airing my opinion. Yes they do. Every time Britney does a show, her vocal ability is mentioned. I like Cheryl's music, I have all of her albums, I've seen her on tour etc.. and live she can hold a note. Vocally, she can't hold a candle to Nicole and if you listened to them singing live at the same time.. The result would be laughable. Really, I would like us all to move on from the whole Nicole vs Cheryl discussion. Clearly, we could all argue until we 're blue in the face but what's the point :lol: They both have their fans and the songs will do as well as they do.. I'd prefer to discuss 'Your Love' and it's progress and those that want to discuss 'Crazy Stupid Love' can go to the GA forum.
June 15, 201411 yr It really isn't, someone criticised Cheryl and was being a troll, then other radical trolls joined in and I just defended Cheryl, so face.
June 15, 201411 yr Would one of the mods do something about this guy derailing this thread constantly?
June 15, 201411 yr I think it was a valid discussion point considering both of their connections to the X Factor and their similar release dates, but I agree that it is time to go back to just discussing Nicole's song now.
June 15, 201411 yr Author I wouldn't say Cheryl has the whole package - her performance on BGT was incredibly flat while Nicole has a much better presence. Cheryl obviously has airplay on her side which is a great shame. Cheryl will continue gaining more airplay that Nicole , regardless of the quality of the song!
June 15, 201411 yr The performance of 'Your Love' on Chatty Man was fabulous. I hope she tours this album, she's been amazing every time I've seen her live :wub:
June 15, 201411 yr well this is pretty shit. (and i suppose if we're now comparing her with Cheryl, 'Crazy Stupid Love' may not be some avant-garde masterpiece, but it's LEAGUES ahead of this)
