The song's ok but the video is truly atrocious. She doesn't look comfortable in front of the camera at all and pulls a whole range of unflattering faces.

the song's shit!! i'm not sure why, but i'm actually shocked - i thought it would be better! i genuinely did expect more from her...in all honesty...(and trust me, i take NO pleasure in saying this, but..) cheryl's music's better.

and yes, the timing is most definately all a little funny.

monday - sex tape released. huge storm of frenzy created as internet goes crazy. gets picked up by media.

wednesday - tulisa reveals "truth about sex tape" via twitter in a candid and "heartbreaking" youtube video, stating things like "i was young and stupid and very much in love" blah blah blah...media go crazy....victim...blah blah blah...everyone's feeling sorry for her.

friday - new song and video released. lyrics include "forgive me for what i have done, cus i'm young, yeah i'm young"....(on a side note - seriously? how long did take the kids in the local primary school to write those?!) whole video = a "party scene"

i never thought before today that any of this had been intentional, or that she'd played any role other than simply being dumb enough to be filmed. now i'm not so sure, except for one thing....she's certainly not dumb!

The song's pretty average and the video could be worse. She does look comfortable in front of the camera though.
I agree.

Then why would she go on record and accuse someone else who, as it happens, hasn't denied it?
To take the heat off of her. Someone has to be the fallguy.

He denied it on twitter.

Kelly did this video much much better

The tune of the song is not bad, but the lyrics are hilarious. Also I have just noticed how alike Tulisa and Jade from Little Mix are!

Nope, Auto Tune is layered throughout the song - sucks (no pun intended)

He's tweeted twice since Tulisa posted the video and neither of them contains a denial.

Like Tulisa as a personality and think she has a good voice but unfortunately I really don't like this song or sound

Where's the average option?
Must give it more spins.

She sounds like strained cat. Tulisa leave singing to the professionals and do what your best at.

Why can't guys just listen to the song. Please stop harking on about the other stuff. I think Tulisa is great and the singles not to bad either. You mark my words she will do well. If there was ever person who's true to her self then it has to be Tulisa. Good on you girl.

I'm not usually a fan of that kind of music, but I've to admit it's quite catchy and it;s being released in time for summer, a feel good summer song.

I thought her voice sounded terrific and the song wasn't too bad at all. I hope she does well.

i thought her voice sounded screechy at the best of times - not something generally found in a fully produced single nowadays. plus, i find the lyrics to be almost insultingly laughable and the beat to be bog standard - what you hear 2 or 3 times over on a standard night out in a club. and this is coming from someone only 2-3 years younger than tulisa herself. like i said before, i feel let down. i expected something better than this. not sure what, mind, just...better...

I like it - and I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the obvious 'We Found Love' comparisons. I don't get the screechy and uncomfortable looking video criticisms mentioned though.

It's going to be a big hit regardless of the negative stuff said by some so be prepared to hear it a lot.
