BLOODY HELL

Have we all heard the new Amerie? I gotta say, I liked Why R U plenty enough, but it didn't have me in a froth for the new album -- but THIS one! Single Ladies energy, awesome slapping beat, and OMG what a vocal performance! NOVEMBER IS WAY TOO FAR OFF.

That is pretty good. I think the style of the song would perhaps have worked better with a slightly stronger/punchier chorus, but I agree about the vocal performance. Overall, enjoyed it.

It does wane a bit as it goes on what with the relative lack of variation, but I think the initial impact is devastating enough to carry it through. And I bet it's a KILLER on the dancefloor!

Yes, I think that's it. It starts off so well and doesn't quite build on the early promise as I'd hoped.

A good remix, now, THAT would be killer! Maybe it'll happen?

Ace video, my jury's still out on the song.

Adore this song. Been trying to figure out words to praise it with for the past two weeks and failed spectacularly. It's just MASSIVE.
