Tim: The track’s been out elsewhere since last June, but it’s only now, following her success with MNEK on Never Forget You, that it’s getting a push over here.
Tim: I’m going to be honest: right now, not much of a fan of this. On the other hand, I couldn’t stand the MNEK collaboration until a few months after first hearing it, for many of the same reasons as I don’t much like this, so maybe this’ll grow on me as well. There are, after all, a number of good things about this track – vocal’s as on point as ever, and there are moments of pleasant melodic singing where that comes through.
Tom: I’ll normally slate something with distracting, odd, bleepy-bloopy synths the background — particularly when they sound like the producer was idly playing a videogame at the same time. But for some reason, these really work for me, and I can’t explain why. Less sure about the odd squelchy, scratchy sound just left of centre, though.
Tim: The occasional post-chorus that appears is particularly catchy, although I think that might be because the rhythm’s the same as Ms. Jackson.
Tom: That’s why I know it! Yes, you’re right.
Tim: But in any case, it’s always nice to celebrate foreign success in British music, so hooray! And apparently she’s got a new single coming out in the next few days, though that’s as a feat. with Tinie Tempah, so I think it’s best if we just try to ignore that.
