It's OK, but doesn't sound like a hit. I liked "Break Your Heart" more.

I really, really like this on first listen. It's not half as instant or hot as BYH, but there's something incredibly infectious about the chorus.

I don't like this song.

I like this. I think it can go either way at radio, but I commend them on going with a solo single rather than cashing in on Ke$ha.

I would have gone with "Dirty Picture". He has no identity to carry a song, and this isn't even half as good as "Break Your Heart".

^ I actually agree, even if I do like this. "Dirty Picture" is an obvious follow up - it's hot and features Pop's current it girl. They can always send "Dynamite" for adds afterwards, once he's established himself a bit more.

I thought it would be "Dirty Picture" for sure, especially with Ke$ha featured on it.

I like this a lot more than "Break My Heart" on first listen. The chorus is amazing.

I believe I heard this on the radio today. Not horrible, but it doesn't sound like much thought went into the verses. The chorus is really catchy. I doubt this guy will have another hit.

has he done any promo in the US to get his name out there? From what I know, he hasn't. That's why I think even though this is a good song, it won't be a hit. He can't carry a song without a guest to the top yet, unless it's amazing. "Break Your Heart" would have been a hit with or without Luda, but this one needs something.

I think he will follow Craig David, at least in the U.S.

Actually I'm listening to this more and I think it has a chance. It kind of sounds like a male version of "Tik Tok."

This is a definite hit. Bernard Gourley is directing the video.

Dr. Luke & Benny Blanco wrote & produced this so the "Tik Tok" comparisons make perfect sense i see this going Top 5 , but if there is no competition this will be a no-brainer #1 this song was made for radio

Listened again, and I can see this being a minor hit. "Dirty Picture" is huge though, another number one for him. This is more summery though.

#12 on iTunes now
This definitely sounds like a male version of "Tik Tok" and it's a great sound for the summer. Coming off the HUGE smash that was "Break Your Heart", this should also go Top 5 on Pop, at the very least.

I have a feeling this going to be my summer 2010 song. It's infectious and makes for a great driving song.
