Dreadful. I guess this is this era's attempt to do a "Hollaback Girl" or "Wind It Up". i.e. tuneless shit

i know this is terrible and tuneless, but dare i suggest it's frighteningly infectious. give it a couple of listens and it actually stays in your head - yes, i'm aware of the potential of brain damage but couldn't help clicking repeat

i love gwen for delivering pop gems such as cool, early winter, wonderful life and 4 in the morning but we have to admit tuneless drivel is what turned her to a successful solo act. i guess we can't really blame her for taking that route again while in search for a crossover hit.

Nah, it's not for me. You know me, I'm ALL about the melody. This is about as far away from that as you can get. Good luck to her with it, but I'm definitely not on board with this.

Wait...that's not even funny!!! ;)

The one thing you can always rely on Madge for is tunes. Lots and lots of tunes! If she finally moves away from tunes, I really will be completely done with her!

well yeah, this bitch is wise enough to know she can't get away by delivering songs without a strong chorus and no pop hooks in between. unfortunately her wisdom has been set to a coma these past few years ( the likes of superstar, incredible and revolver among others just dropped by to say hello)

Horrible. I'm so sad would release something like this. At least BDL was just generic (but still catchy). This is shit!

so, gwen has just dropped a brand new single out of nowhere. it's quite good, too.



also confirmed none of last year's recording sessions will make it to the album. apparently she ditched them all and started working from scratch. the divorce album should be on its way :alexz: (cause we all love heartbroken gwen music, don't we)

You know, if you were to take the better half of the songs on both of her solo albums and combine them you would have a cracking LP.

Not that crazy about this one either really. It's ok, but that's about it.

It's not bad compared to the last batch of songs, but it's nowhere near her best. I think I like any of her ballads from the first two albums better. And her "acting" in the video makes is well less convincing actually.

Oh yes, she looks incredible, but that video is ghastly. Sinéad's Nothing Compares 2 U it most certainly is not!

absolutely agreed. there's some unbearable tuneless drivel floating on both her album tracklists, however the vast majority of pure pop songs included are amazing.

Down to #4 already. Remember Lana recently managed something similar and then debuted at like #51 on the Hot 100 lol.

Coincidentally the song at #2 now is a track called "I Used To Love You Sober" by some new act.

a couple of months later and she's back to top 5 on usa itunes. surely this recent performance must have helped a lot

Radio couldn't care less as she's still over 40, and thus the song will plummet again by morning.

How radio programmers live with themselves is beyond me.
