Guest harbors Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 theres no denying its catchy its just the god awful production makes it utterly embarrassing, if this were the lead single for her latest studio album she would be ripped to shreds by anyone with the slightest bit of tatse in music. I think she needs to go away and get inspired again. Whatever! Really I think you need to go away n get inspired again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think she needs to go away and get inspired again. when i hear a good song that is really catchy, i really dont sit around and think, "wow this is a great song but the god awful production makes it utterly embarassing and if this were the lead single for her latest studio album she would be ripped to shreds by anyone with the slightest bit of taste in music" people really into music dont THINK about it so much. they go with it.

Guest ursaminorjim Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's dated, yes, and the chorus is very "will this do?" for me. But my biggest issue with it is the same issue have with most eurotrance pop - it has this artificial excitement that's entirely empty and manufactured. Lots of random elements added to differentiate each verse, synths that modulate from muted to buzzing, tinny cymbal splashes counting off into the choruses, the drop-off that leaves just the kick drum followed by the big build up and a finish that just ends...it's so by-the-numbers. And the frustrating thing is that the song just taxies down the runway and never achieves liftoff - there's no dynamics, the big release just never happens. It's like sending twenty bucks on an ecstacy tab that never gets you feeling any more than a mild buzz. It's pleasant enough, but I was expecting more. But all that aside? The song follows another template - the classic Madonna pop/dancefloor crossover anthem. Like "Vogue" and "Music" before it (two other songs with brilliant verses followed by comparatively weak choruses), this is entirely within a tradition for her, and I wouldn't be surprised if it became a massive hit, even in the good old US of A. And even the murky YouTube recordings of the Benny Bennassi mix bode incredibly well. I'm definitely excited to hear what the other mixes do with this. 6/10.

Guest bluejean Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Initial reaction... It's a good song with crap, dated production. It could have been something great with a better producer. Hopefully the remixes will give it what it needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sphere74 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 (edited) Are you that harsh with Kylie too? It's called over-analising. Haha. That's what this poster always does, basically. I'm personally far too simple for his posts. The song is just a simple euro pop song. No more no less. I mean, Euro trance sound is not for me(it just sounds cheap and uninspired to me) but nothing to analise about this song.

Guest ursaminorjim Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Are you that harsh with Kylie too? No. I'm that fair with Kylie too. Besides, I'm not saying anything that a lot of other people here aren't saying as well. As far as me "over analysing," I disagree. I just like to be as accurate with my words as I can. So have there been leaks or snippets of any of the other mixes apart from the Bennassi one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest seancannon Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I like the lyrics, etc., but the techno aspect of it sounds dated. I liked the remixes that I heard before (Oakenfold). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sasori84 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Surely reminescent of Calvin Harris style, but I must admit that the song is really infectious, lyrics are good and the melody is great! The high vocal range and the additional choruses (for ex. it's a celebration)make the tune worth more than a listen ....By the way, hello to everyone in here!

Subhuman Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's alright, it'll probably grow on me...definitely has Oakenfold all over it (as it should since he did produce it after all). This sounds more like a remix than an album track. The verses are great though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
