Not sure if there is already a post bout this, but has anyone heard the new single? Personally, i think its awful!! The yodelling is horrendous and the song is all over the place.

What do other people think?

Now, is Gwen copying Fergie or is Fergie copying Gwen???
Better than Fergalicious (what isn't?) but still crap.

Terrible song.

I liked Gwen when she was in No Doubt and like most of the songs from her first album too, but it's just HER that puts me off listening to her songs! That whole Love Angel Music Baby crap with her four Harajuku slaves sickens me! I once saw a performance of Harajuku Girls (one of those AOL ones I think) and they were on their hands and knees grovelling to her (like Waynes World - 'we're not worthy!'). Then came the line "Gwen Stefani, you like ME?" like they couldn't believe that someone so fantastic as Gwen would even glance in their direction. She only has them to make herself more taller and blonder. I refuse to watch that video (because I know it'll be everywhere soon) so I don't know if she still has her Harajuku slaves or if she's decided they're not "in" anymore? I'm still waiting for the video when she makes them walk on all fours wearing collars and leashes, puts them in cages and smacks one of them for speaking (they're only allowed to giggle and look mysterious. According to Gwen "they're a figment of her imagination.") Seriously, what is she on?

Rant over

I quite liked the quirkyness of What You Waiting For but this is beyond quirky- it's just messy.
I hope she releases the track that Tim Rice- Oxley wrote (or possibly just played on...?), I really need to hear that and I don't want to buy her album.

Maybe she's going for the Afro-Bavarian-Folksong charts?

Well I like it

Catchy stuff
Fergie may get slagged off for her music
but it sells and so many people, like myself, quite like it.

Gwen Gwen Gwen. What is this crap?! Oh dear. This is terrible and i was such a fan of her first album. I'm sure her new album will have loads of far better tracks on it. I'm baffled when artists release on eof the worst tracks on the album as a first single e.g Rudebox.

Has this style of music not ended now? (london bridge,my humps,hollaback girl etc). I'm sick of it to be honest

Why do you NEED to hear it?

If you were that bothered you would buy the album regardless.

There were far better songs she could have released from Love.Angel.Music.Baby.

They should leave the more arty-farty stuff as album tracks.

I think it's wicked, it gets better with each listen - the yodelling is kind of annoying but some of the sounds rock, love that deep bass - can't wait for the album

I think GS is really overated.
She also sounds very similar vocals wise to Lene Lovich.

Just saw her on JR too.

Was that even a song? ....It sounded to me like someone talking a load of rubbish over a couple of very ill-advised samples.

Still, makes a change from ripping off Weezer.

I thought it was a joke until I saw her actually performing it on JR, it was hilariously bad.

The only thing i liked about her performance on JR was her gorgeous pinafore dress.

The song is so crap. Reminded me of Fergalicious.

No way near as good as her first single on L.A.M.B.
