October 17Oct 17 I want to like this, but it's pretty terrible 🫣 although I'm still here for the album if it explores a similar sound.Is that even her on the chorus?
October 17Oct 17 Hmmm, it really wants to be a big dance banger but it kinda just falls short. I think I might like it more with repeated listens though. Is the album going to be all in the same vein as this? Wasn't really expecting her to go down the dance route!
October 17Oct 17 Yep. Not for me, but it will be on any gym playlists if Virgin distributes it will enough... I think this would have been better as a summer-song though, but whatever...The placement on New Music Friday UK is atrocious though... it's at 48, so it wont get that many streams from that.I hope the album is better
October 17Oct 17 It's not very good...which is kinda a bummer since I think her last few lead singles (Think About It, Anymore, Who I Am) are pretty great and have really held up for me. I guess Sweat could grow on me a bit, but I like everything from the Melanie C album/era quite a bit better. But I'll also admit...the songs by Madonna/Britney where their contributions are mostly spoken word were never my favorite in their catalogues either (...though I think the style fits them better than Melanie). Curious what the performances of this will be like. Anyway. I'm not put off the upcoming album or anything. Looking forward to what she's got in store. I'm just landing at...for her to be gone so long...I was hoping she'd return with more of a song.
October 17Oct 17 It's fun and I'm bopping!Imagine if a time traveller played this to Melanie C at any point between 1999 and 2017... I'd like to know how a 'This Time' era Mel would react to 'Sweat'

October 17Oct 17 Lol true, somehow I Want Candy totally slipped my mind... that was so at odds with the music she was making otherwise!
October 17Oct 17 Im enjoying it, it is a little generic but at the same time really fits the ‘Sporty’ brand and gets stuck in your head. Nice enough.
