The thing is I liked her previous stuff, but I absolutely hate her new single "Girlfriend", like, really really really hate. Has put me off thinking about getting the album until I've heard quite a bit more.

I've got the DVD version on pre-order from CD-Wow

Will pick up the standard version on release from the shops though, so I dont have to wait

The extra tracks are going to be on iTunes, so I'll pick them up on that

Me too that song is awful and the video to it put me off even more, not heard any of the other songs so there may be a few good ones in there but she seems to have gone a bit too pop mainstream for me

That shouldn' make sense but it does. Not keen on new song I just keep thinking of "Hey Micky" when I hear it.

She has gone the opposite way that I thought she would with that song, hopefully the next single will be a bit more solid.

Hasn't music moved on since then. Girlfriend sounds like a hit from about 5 years ago.

I don't by any means "hate" it, but I have no interest whatsoever in listening to it.

Indie · 6 Apr 2007 at 11:03

shes hot, crap song but damn addictive!!!!! grrr

its one of them kinda things where u know u shudnt be listening to it, but u do anyway...

Raymond Lin · 6 Apr 2007 at 13:50

I have a feeling people will change their mind about this album, summer is coming up, and this album is supposed to have lots of feel good up beat songs. Sure is different to the other 2 but it doesn't mean it's bad.

I like the new song, simply because she's prancing around in a tartan skirt, knee high socks, high heels and looking ever so sexy

The song is pretty crap though.

Appalling song... I would never, ever buy any of her albums after listening to that song if it represents her newest material. Utter tripe, I can only imagine it's aimed at the 12-14yr old segment of the market that haven't yet developed a taste in music.

EDIT - Just checked it out again on Youtube... oh god that is bad...

"She's like... so whatever, you can do so much better... I think we should get together..."

Cue Darth Vader style: Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

I like her new song, plus she locks rocking in the video.

BoomAM · 7 Apr 2007 at 16:14

I hate the new track. Shes basically become what she (used to) hit out against.
But i'll give the new album a chance, because i didnt like the last one from the first released track off it either.

BloodWolf · 7 Apr 2007 at 16:25

good god.. o.O

McDaniel · 7 Apr 2007 at 20:32
