February 23, 201510 yr Well it's miles better than Heartbeat Song but I don't think it's single worthy.
February 23, 201510 yr Incredible. I agree with what Jake is saying regarding that Kelly doesn't seem to care about this campaign and her poor promotion in the USA indicates that.
February 23, 201510 yr Wait so now we're criticising a song because it sounds like it was written by the writer?! Sia wrote the song. What else is it gonna sound like?! What the eff? So are we to criticise all of Max Martin's stuff now because you can tell he had a hand in making it. I think, no matter what she puts out, people are just intent on bringing her down because she doesn't fit the popstar mould. God forbid a musician have a child and put their needs first! Song is fabulous and if any of the big pop girls came to the table with this, it'd be lapped up. Edited February 23, 201510 yr by Scherz
February 23, 201510 yr Better than 'Heartbeat Song' but still not up to her usual high standard. This era's not going well for me.
February 23, 201510 yr Song is fabulous and if any of the big pop girls came to the table with this, it'd be lapped up. Nope. BuzzJack has always been incredibly kind to Kelly.
February 23, 201510 yr Nah. That's just because she has kick ass songs :D. Although, 'Dark Side' didn't seem to have too many fans for example. Also, her fan base on Buzzjack is no different to the other big pop girls on this forum.
February 23, 201510 yr I wasn't around when 'Dark Side' came out. Am I the only one who actually really loves that one? :blink:
February 23, 201510 yr I wasn't around when 'Dark Side' came out. Am I the only one who actually really loves that one? :blink: No you most certainly ain't. I really love it more on a personal level than just for liking a song. Very underrated!
February 23, 201510 yr This is excellent - great melody, fantastic production and more enjoyable than (the still rather good) Heartbeat Song for me.

Song is fabulous and if any of the big pop girls came to the table with this, it'd be lapped up. That's not the point at all. The first two singles are just sub-par in comparison to the rest of her discography. It has nothing to do with how she looks or Sia. :mellow:
February 23, 201510 yr I agree with Scherz. She has unfortunately reached a point now where her fans online are letting their disappointment about her image cloud their judgment of the music, and nothing she puts out is gonna be good enough whereas anything the other girls do will get automatic love. It's a shame.

Also, her fan base on Buzzjack is no different to the other big pop girls on this forum. I don't know what your point is. I'm just telling him the forum doesn't have any vendetta against her? Whether or not that's because she has "kick ass songs" couldn't be less interesting to me.
February 23, 201510 yr Only listened to it a few times and I think it's fantastic, far superior to Heartbeat Song, hoping there's more songs that are as good as this on the album!

It has nothing to do with how she looks or Sia. :mellow: Well, you said that you agreed with Jake.. And Jake said it's "so Sia it hurts". So how doesn't that have anything to do with Sia? :unsure:

It's a shame. Really?? I mean, I've not heard Invincible yet so can't comment on that, but what does her image have to do with anything? :unsure: I found Heartbeat Song disappointing because, well, it's quite a limp pop song in my eyes compared to some of the amazing tracks she's put out in the past. Nothing to do with her image. Apologies if I've misunderstood your point but it seems quite an odd thing to say imo.
February 23, 201510 yr It is very Sia in the composition of the song, its not a terrible song it's just nothing to write home about. However my main quarrel with the song has nothing to do with Sia. I agree with Jake because it sounds like a decent album track on a decent Kelly album. Something this album doesn't look to be "shaping" into. Her image has nothing to do with her quality of music, at least for me. Oh wait, I photoshopped a picture of her to make her look more fit! Wow, incredible song! I mean seriously? No one has ever really counted on Kelly for the sake of an image. They have counted on her for anthemic pop tracks and powerhouse ballads with a tinge of rock. And for some it's still working just fine, but the MUSIC is just not that good, and it seems I'm not the only one to think that way. Edited February 23, 201510 yr by toxic_air
February 23, 201510 yr Yeah, I'm not really sure where the image thing has suddenly come in, Kelly has always bordered on chubby (which for me is almost part of her appeal as a package) so I really don't think that people would choose now of all times to go off her. Heartbeat Song has been quite widely accepted as a weaker single of hers, I really think this is irrespective of image. Nobody looks at Kelly and expects or demands a sexy video, tits out, leather clad etc. so it does seem a rather throwaway excuse for people not liking her music to just say "people are letting her image get in the way".

I couldn't have said it better than this.. Though, I am enjoying 'Invincible'.
