November 1, 200915 yr Mmmkeh. Time for a critical evaluation methinks... WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED? PEOPLE HAD TASTE
November 1, 200915 yr It really was a disaster. How did EMI f*** up a UK release so badly?! Releasing the song on itunes so long before its official release, coming over weeks before its release and doing $h!t press which was pointless and then nothing when it was released. :huh: Bless, she posted on twitter one day saying her single was top 25 in the UK. No idea what her people were telling her.
January 18, 201510 yr Let us relive this spectacularly failed set of predictions! Naturally I was right all along :angel: (but in all seriousness I was one of the fairly few who didn't predict #1 for this).
January 18, 201510 yr still don't get why the label f***ed the release of this up, shoulda been a smash. Didn't even know it existed back in 2009 though which speaks volumes about its complete lack of promo
January 18, 201510 yr Haha I have absolutely no recollection of this song at all (not a surprise then!)
January 18, 201510 yr Oh, the memories. It had such potential but when the release came around it had got zero support from anywhere and just fizzled out. :(
January 18, 201510 yr :rofl: @ this floppagé. no idea what people see in this track anyway, it's so bland and by-numbers~ at least she went onto MUCH better things a year later (Take Over Control <3)
January 18, 201510 yr oh yes buzzjack were mad over this at the time. Wasn't really all that it was cracked up to be in the end though :)
January 18, 201510 yr (In case it isn't clear from context / anyone isn't aware, this song ended up missing the top 100 entirely - though Eva would of course go on to live up to the hype after all by scoring a #1 hit with will.i.am!)
January 18, 201510 yr It should have 'smash hit' written all over it and its good I predict top 5, have'nt seen a lot of promotion for it though Well, wasn't I ON THE MARK as ever. I presumably must've heard this at the time, but I only recall hearing it as part of the BJSC winners and it was TERRIBLE, dunno why I (and the rest of Buzzjack) thought the public would fall for something so generic! (Please excuse my terrible grammar/abuse of haven't, it was like one of my first twenty posts)
January 19, 201510 yr Just listening to this for the first time - agreed that it's not great, and didn't do massively well in any of the countries it got released in - Belgium and The Netherlands took it top 20 but that's about as good as it got. The production is very 2009, in a electro-pop RedOne Little Boots/Lady Gaga/etc sort of way, and that's probably why lots thought it was going to be a hit. Even then I wouldn't have minded had this got low top 10 - sounds like a #8 or #9 hit for me, not one to completely miss the top 100!
