Disposable dance-pop at its most unmemorable. In other words, it's awful.

It's a Eurovision song.

Even Calvin Harris can't save it.

Just saw the new video
Why does she keep changing her shoes right through it

The Red shoes with the luminous lime green front are featured alot

Not sure about the location of the video shoot either.Some could accuse her of 'dragging things down to sewer level' - I won't do that though

I wish she wouldn't keep scratching her crotch as well Makes me think of Ashley Cole somehow Serves her right for going there though

I thought the video was good, only thing I would be concerned about is the release date... they need to move it forward and release it in the US.

It's stupid to release it the same week as Bieber. If they move it forward and in the states it'll go straight on the Billboard.

Billboard also takes into account radio spins and internet popularity, so Cheryl would need to gain significant airplay to get a decent position. It doesn't work on sales alone, which is why The Wanted sustained a long stay towards the top end of the chart due to their radio popularity...

Songs rarely go 'straight on to Billboard' unless they are releases from megastars. Cheryl would need to gig and promote her music on radio before she can attain a decent charting in the US.

Her video looks pretty but there is no storyline and the dancing is a little peculiar.

Well... she has proved that she can 'walk' and 'strut' with the music. The first minute of the video is just walking and posing. Shows a lot of talent.....

Really not sure about the dancing either. There seems to be no flow or consistency within it. I am no fan of hers, but this is the worst song and video she has done. And whats with that horrible tattoo on her leg???? Who told her that was going to be a good idea?

I am intrigued as to how she will perform this 'live' *coughs* as it isnt really the type of song you can just sing.... would look pretty rubbish without all the hype going on behind to distract.

She will NEVER sing this live.

There seems to be alot of attention on those Orangy / Red with Luminous green front shoes as well Mind you I'd only wear them down the sewer as well (if I was female that is of course )

That is why she will never break the US market. She won't do the live gigs.

My friend was telling me earlier on he didn't really like it and he thinks her voice sounds dreadful on it.

Rather than starting a whole new thread, just thought I'd post a comment in a pre-existing one. It really pains me to say it, but this song has really grew on me. God damn it, it's so catchy and it's just stuck in my head constantly now. Don't know how she does it, but third time in a row she's managed to get a song for lead single that just grinds you down until you end up liking it.

It's huge radio and tv airplay causing "earworm" syndrome is how she does it.

well ..... when I first heard it I was like ok...its We Found Love 2.0 ........but after hearing it a few times and seeing the video.... I love it.......and I genuinely think it will be a number 1 smash and could even break the US Bilboard top 100! She has released some cracking pop tunes as a solo artist..... Fight For This Love, Promise This, 3 Words and now Call My Name. Dare I say it, Girls Aloud is perhaps now behind her.

Nadine's not orange or unattractive or the one grabbing her crotch and touching herself.

I like the instrumental but the song could have been so much more if someone talented was singing it, Tweedy Dumb's lifeless "vocals" doesn't do it for me.

Parachute was an ok pop song. Nothing amazing though but I liked it.

Yes and do you want to know why its a Calvin Harris production and as most of his songs sound similar theres a 50/50 chance of loving or loathing it Cheryl ever the innovator

Think its the best song she's released for her. That is, it's the right kind of thing for her (weak) vocals.

Average at best for me.

I think The Flood is her best song, it's lovely to listen to.

It's great. Hopefully it will do well. I've liked all three leads singles from her albums but less keen on the follow ups. The video is good too.
