Jessie J's official 2nd single from 'Sweet Talker' has officially premiered:

It is a solid second single reminds me VERY much of Crazy Stupid Love though!

    I like the song. I hope she does well with it both here and in USA. She sung it amazingly at Itunes Festival btw.

    On first listen I don't like it, can definitely hear the Crazy Stupid Love similarity though.

    I'm completely slayed but she could release a cover Mary had a little lamb and I'd still rave for it

    Great chorus but falls flat everywhere else. Could change my mind though

    2 chainz is pointless.

    I don't like it.
    She just shouts and tries too hard. It's also painfully obvious how much this is going to be a "America, please like me" record. Did she really need another feature too? Or is she still too scared to release a song on her own after the Alive flop?

    I did think this too but she really doesn't need other people on her songs. Her biggest hit in the states is Domino which is all by herself so that says something.

    I know, she proved she can do it with Domino but at the moment everything is being played a little too safe in my opinion. She needs it to be a success in the states or her recent "America appreciates my voice" statement is going to look really stupid.

    Idk what its called, the bridge(?) is amazing but after this lead-up, the "I'm burning up bit" is kind of awful and underwhelming.

    Apparently that was fake.

    Yeah it has a great build up then just falls flat for me when it hits the chorus.

    Definitely feels as if someone though Crazy Stupid Love would be the first of a new 'sound' in pop, and this was recorded (probably in the spring) in order to capitalise on something 'current'. Not sure to what extent it caught on though so this just sounds a bit...flat.

    Jessie's looking well though. It does really sound America-graspy as well.
