New Jennifer Lopez single. I really like it! No proper video yet, unfortunately.

it's pretty catchy & no mistake - i think she's been plugged into world of rihanna/amerie/beyonce

Mmm, her voice has got a lot richer. She sounds a bit like Tina Turner in places, in a good way.

I like it a lot, which is a surprise because J Lo almost uniformally annoys me.

Yes it's good, very busy sounding but not in that prodding-you way uptempo pop can be.

not a patch on Jenny From The Block obv

Not heard this yet. But in other 'new single' news I have a horrible feeling the new one by James Bl*nt is "any good at all". Eek. Good job I'm going on holiday for 2 weeks after today innit.

...and back on topic

Heard this now. Like it a lot. Especially the little bridge into the chorus (the bit which then becomes the counter-melody played by the strings in the chorus itself).

OK, signing off for real this time. If I don't see you in Embra over the bank holiday weekend I'll catch you back here in a couple of weeks. Play nice!

'Aint It Funny' confuses me because there was the lovely sort of Latin song, which I liked a lot and then there was a ballad-ish thing with Ja Rule, which I did not like so much.

They're completely different songs, aren't they! Love them both but prefer the hip-hoppy Ja Rule one.

Well, to be fair, she did release a remix album, and most of the big singles are on there.

Nice feeling. Prettiness coming at you in segmented bits of string and bass, hints of Shaft guitar; she's not pushing too hard on the vocals but the singing has a nice build-up. There's no grabby hook or overwhelming choruses, but I don't know how much it needs them. (Probably does need them more than it's got 'em, actually, if it wants to compete with "Umbrella" and "Hey Hey Hey.")
