July 12, 201510 yr Author I LOVED this song at the time and still do today. Probably one of her most 'generic' single releases but it's still so so good :heart: It's a shame she doesn't seem to acknowledge this, what with not performing it live since the Last Girl On Earth tour back in 2010 :o
July 12, 201510 yr Ah yes :yahoo: this was one of her better classic tracks! Nice little tune. And it was the one that randomly dropped out of the top 100 from the top 40? :(
July 12, 201510 yr Author Yes, it was a victim of the ludicrous chart rule back then that having a remix of your previous single on your new one meant that the previous single was disqualified from the chart (or something like that, I'm sure a more chart savvy person will correct me if I'm wrong!). So it dropped out the week 'Unfaithful' was released :( This is it's short-lived UK chart run: 05-{02}-02-05-05-07-09-12-24-21-20-21-27
July 12, 201510 yr Author I can't deal with this song. Bottom of the pile of Rih singles by far http://soundisstyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/rihanna-not-impressed.gif I apologise for my co-mod's ignorance.
July 12, 201510 yr Yeah it was released April 2006 in the UK :D Oops just realised my mistake, I made the I thought it was 2006 comment as I thought these threads were 10 years after the track was released but I just realised it is going through all her singles after 10 years of her career and not based on release date :lol: :kink:
