This is SO dull. It has nothing to it other than being a bandwagon tropical house song, his vocals sound like he is as bored as I am listening to it :lol:

what a disappointment,

the contest, the no feature, the tease,

and then the let down of the song itself, repetitive, goes nowhere, silly lyrics trying to cash in on the TS situation, very childish overall :/

LOVE THIS

 

it doesn't quite have the same impact as TIWYCF but it's brilliant nonetheless. great to hear Calvin's voice on a song again too. doesn't sound like a big bandwagon jump at all to me too it's very Calvin sounding :unsure:

This is just as dull as 'This Is What You Came For'. It's alright as background music but I don't know how it can excite you to listen to it out of choice.

This track is essentially album filler, though obviously won't get the chance to fill an album if he's not making them anymore. I guess he can't expect every single he puts out to be a million selling smash though, I'd be incredibly surprised if this ends up being half as big as This Is What You Came For.

 

I mean it's fine but the drop sounds like it's been produced by a resident Butlins DJ whose just got his hands on 'my first tropical house' software or something, one of the cheesiest dance songs I've heard this year.

what gooddelta said

 

i actually rly like his voice so glad it wasn't a feat. but it's definitely album fodder

I actually like the melody and the vibe overall, it's just the breakdown just sounds a bit amateur.

 

I'm sure it will be a massive hit though.

This is alright on first listen wanted a bit more :( out of the 3 singles of his How Deep Is Your Love >> TIWYCF >>>> My Way allready

This is a big let down, and I'm usually here for a Calvin-vocal track. :( As it stands I'd say this is my least favourite single by him (not counting songs he features on) since Merrymaking at My Place!

 

I'm not usually someone who tends to moan about a song being repetitive, many of my favourite songs are, but this song takes things a bit too far even by my standards...! http://www.directlyrics.com/calvin-harris-my-way-lyrics.html

This Is What You Came For is the same! http://www.directlyrics.com/calvin-harris-...for-lyrics.html

 

Not that his songs were all lyrically amazing before but I'm not exactly sure what's happened with him. Taylor Swift must have sucked all the creative juices out of him and poisoned his career like she's done with her previous exes.

Yeah this is just filler at best. I dunno if it's because I listened to Emeli's track first, but it really paled in comparison. The shade towards TIWYCF never ceases to amaze me. It's GLORIOUS and you guys shall just have to deal tbh... :cry:
Calvin Harris' songs have always been very repetitive lyrically, well yes there have been a few which follow pop song verse-chorus structures (I Need Your Love, How Deep Is Your Love) but he hasn't just suddenly got lazy with songwriting.

Even worse than that Ri Ri collabo.

 

Who'da thought a song even MORE repetitive than Lady GaGa's would be released a couple days later!

Definately don't agree that it's as bad as TIWWCF! I really like this. His voice sounds good on it.
I'll come out and declare myself as being firmly on Team Jonjo :cool:! 'This Is What You Came For' is infinitely better than this. Never understood the collective meh response that song received on this forum (although having said that, it spent 4 weeks at #1 in the personal chart forum's multi-chart, so it must have a lot of fans here. I guess its detractors were just a bit louder).

Well, I'm glad it's not a feature. His vocals are sublime on their own and I'm not here for another recycled guest appearance...

 

That said, this definitely needed a stronger drop, it sounds like something that would be good in his earlier eras, but from where he is now, it feels amateur. It's a nice listen, it just doesn't go much beyond that.

 

Basically, give me another Summer with a huge drop, Calvin, not this new subtle stuff (unashamed).

#TeamJonjo too tbh This Is What You Came For is a proper great danxe tune dont get the hate for it :(

!!!!!

 

I agree with Dan however, a lot of the songs he sings on are as repetitive as this, so I'm not surprised that he's gone for the three-peat. It's more or less on par with TIWYCF - I can see this having a high burn rate but it's not that bad. I want more euphoric singles like "Outside" and "How Deep Is Your Love" though. I'll give it a few more listens and see if this has grown more.
