I like it, but i think its Ne-Yos jealous version of Leona's Take A Bow. And its a typical bland Ne-Yo track... quite surprised at Stargate producing this :(

Def Jam PLEASE scrap this and release Breakin Dishes instead :(

Well Breakin Dishes is being released before Take A Bow is so that's something I spose.

Intro

Oh, how bout a round of applause?

Yeah

Standin ovation

Woah oh oh yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

Verse 1

You look so dumb right now

Standing outside my house

Trying to apologize

You’re so ugly when you cry

Please!

Just cut it out

 

And don’t tell me you’re sorry

cause you’re not

Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught

 

Chorus

But you put on quite a show

Really had me goin’

But now its time to go

Curtains finally closin’

That was quite a show

Very entertaining

But it’s over now

Go on and take a bow

 

Verse 2

Grab your clothes and get gone

(Ya better hurry up)

Before the sprinklers come on

(come on)

Talkin’ bout girl I love you you’re the one

this just looks like a re-run

Please

What else is on?

 

And don’t tell me you’re sorry

cause you’re not

Baby when I know you’re only sorry you got caught

 

Chorus

But you put on quite a show

Really had me goin’

But now its time to go

Curtains finally closin’

That was quite a show

Very entertaining

But it’s over now

Go on and take a bow

 

Bridge

And the award for

the best lie goes to you

For makin’ me believe

that you

could be faithful to me

lets hear your speech

 

How bout a round of applause

A standing ovation

 

Chorus

But you put on quite a show

Really had me goin’

But now its time to go

Curtains finally closin’

That was quite a show

Very entertaining

But it’s over now

Go on and take a bow

 

But it’s over now….

Aww the lyrics are so cute! :( Shame the song is her 2nd worst single to date [1st being Hate That I Love You imo]

OK this is much better in HQ

I think they could leave out the 'Round of applause and standing ovation' stuff at the start but the song is :wub:

I think your right bout it being Ne-Yo's "Jealous" version lol

 

This is set for release in May 2008 (US) so will it be released over here too?? or are they DEFINATELY releasing Breaking dishes?

I cant see how they will make time for Breakin Dishes, but seriously i hate this song its almost as boring as HTILY.

HTILY is immense. <3

 

This however screams album track. I actually had to check how long it lasted for because it felt like the song had lasted for 10 minutes because it just doesn't go anywhere. Bland and repetitive. If Rihanna wants to gain more sales for the album she's going to need something a lot stronger than this, it sure ain't Umbrella... Christ it's not even We Ride!

HTILY beats the pants off Take A Bow.

Agree completely. A re-release wasn't needed but now she is doing, she should have brought out a much stronger track than that as I can't see many people re-buying the album on that track alone.

HTILY :wub:

I dont see whats wrong with a re-release, i thought tjey were used if either the album was flopping or if it was doing really well and they wanted to add like more appeal so that more people would buy it including the ones who already have for the extra songs/features etc.

Breakin' Dishes wuda done fine.

I still think people are under rating this song! I love it!

^The fact that its getting released insttead of Breakin Dishes makes it seem worse as its just far weaker.

But Breakin Dishes IS getting released isnt it??? :unsure:

 

This song is Brill! I dont understand why everyone dislikes it so much!

 

HTILY is probably one of my fave rihanna singles lol! Nothing beats We Ride as to being her worst ever single IMO!

But Breakin Dishes IS getting released isnt it??? :unsure:

 

I'd sincerly doubt it if they're pressing this track for the re-release.

 

This is such a poor track imo and it really does sound like a poor man's HTILY. The track just doesn't go anywhere and I don't see the point of her re-releasing the album, it's sold very well pretty much everywhere hasn't it? If her record company wanted bigger album sales then they should have put out Rehab or Breakin' Dishes as a 5th single. I'd be v.suprised if the re-release took off.
