    Ive probably watched it 4 times haha. It really is a grower of a song. I hope it works for them.

    I know its out independently, is it on Mel's label?

    no, the label is listed as "Matt Cardle", so I guess you could say it's a *true* independent release - it's going to be on Matt's next album (out October 28th, btw), for which Absolute Marketing will be in charge of marketing/promotion

    interesting piece from Music Week about it: http://www.musicweek.com/news/read/matt-cardle-chooses-absolute-marketing-for-independent-release/055388

    Perez Hilton has blogged/tweeted about it, which can't hurt ;)

    It's absolutely fantastic.

    It's got the same kind of old school, "disco gospel" sound that Rolling In The Deep has. A real foot stomper.

    I didn't like the song too much at first, but it has really grown on me.

    Wouldn't it be a big middle finger up at The X Factor if this did well?
    Matt really has been f#*ked over by them it seems.

    The song is actually a strong pop song (perhaps not what "the kids" would download)
    I could imagine it would appeal to an older audience.

    i said that the first time i heard the song back on page 1 and it still feels similar in a good way. tonight i heard the song played on "heart radio", so its slowly getting some commercial airplay. i really hope it does well, i think matt and mel`s voices work well together and the song is pretty catchy.

    you make an interesting point - one seemingly supported by this video "celebrating" 10 years of XF... anyone conspicuous by their absence?

    (I can't actually bring myself to watch, so let me know :p:D)

    It's in the same kind of vein as Rolling in the Deep and Next to Me. Love it - hope it does well for him. :)

    Lots of chemistry between him and Mel too... hmm. ;)

    It is so wrong they ignored him in this - I mean, the entire mash up is conveniently based on 1D melody (Simon's doing no doubt:rolleyes:) but they couldn't at least put a verse of the X factor winner - that is so wrong!

    How can you say that when the song doesn't start or end with a 1D melody :confused::confused:

    On topic. This is the first song of Matt's I have really liked and love the video. Fingers crossed it does well!

    ETA just seen the longer version and it does start with 1D BUT they really don't get any more air time than anyone else and it certainly doesn't finish with them so still don't get your point!!

    Well, I don't know how you can't hear that almost the ENTIRE song has a WMYB beat and melody:confused: seriously. listen to it again - it is SO obvious:confused: it doesn't matter that the words of the song are not used and that they are not aired - almost the entire song has a WMYB melody, listen to it very carefully again.

    Anyway... I just can't believe they even have Union J who had ONE single so far and not Matt - shame on them.

    I was pleasantly surprised with this collaboration. Their voices go really well together. I like that its understated but that probably means it won't do well.

    It's all very Radio 2. I can just imagine Alan Partridge announcing it.

    sounds like a plan to me - there's a Spanish version available as well, if anyone's interested :cool:

    I had been avoiding listening to this, having not been a fan of Matt's offerings from the first album.

    But just spotted it's at 86 on iTunes with ore-orders so finally gave it a fair listen.

    I have to say I'm surprised and rather impressed, it's a catchy song, and I think their voices blend well together.

    It reminds me a bit of "Broken Strings" - if this catches on in the same way, it could potentially be a big hit.
