That Edward Maya & Vika Jigulina song hasn't done anything in the UK because it's not out another month and a half.

Love it! Imagine their debut album without "Time To Pretend", "Electric Feel" and "Kids", but with the rest being a lot better and that's pretty much this record. "Flash Delirium" is definitely the worst song.

I can't say I'm that surprised. You'd barely know they'd released anything in years if it wasn't for the internet and their albums' success has always been very dependent on hit singles.

It's crazy to me how he released two of my favourite singles of 2007 and I didn't like anything from his second album. Everything from his vocals to his subject matter annoyed the sh*t out of me.
This is easily the best thing he's done this era. The production's decent and I like the lyrical references to "Love Is A Battlefield".

I'm sorry but of all the talented people to come out the past few years, Rihanna should NOT be having a 5th (6th) #1 on the Hot 100. I disagree. The simple fact that she has been showing MAJOR improvement makes me feel like she's starting to show she's more talented than we thought. I do feel that a song like TAB should not have been #1 though. Definitely. Even when Rihanna's singles aren't 'repressed' or whatever they race to the top and considering "Rude Boy" is easily one of my favourite songs on the Hot 100 at the moment I'm very pleased with its #1 showing.

Cool! You best be planning to post a photo of it! LOVE this song, by the way.

Crap. The only Pussycat Dolls song I loved was "Hush Hush, Hush Hush", and that was only because it was so ridiculously campy that it was impossible to hate.

I never loved this. I acknowledge that its well produced and put together, but it never did anything for me. I've never been a big fan of any of the singles from this album, actually. My favourite song from I'm Not Dead is the title track.

Fantastic album. The songs are a lot more… full than Alas, I Cannot Swim. More fleshed out with more elements to them. My favourites are "Rambling Man", "Blackberry Stone", "Alpha Man" and "Hope In The Air". That last one reminds me of "Night Terror". I love the choral backing vocals in "What He Wrote" too. I don't know why they chose "Devil's Spoke" as the single, its one of the weakest songs.

He needs to stop releasing songs with #1 or #2 in the title, that's the bottom line here. Wait... "Bottom Line" sounds like his next lead single.

I don't know why people are saying this is different for them. This could fit right in on Oracular Spectacular, it would just be one of the worst tracks.

"Swang" is fun in a "Low" novelty-in-a-club way, but everything about him, from his rapping, to the production, to the subject matter, to his name, to the use of auto-tune, to the fact that he looks like Lil Chris screams novelty.

LMAO at the Annie Lennox sample. Sorry, but I think this is almost worse than Asher Roth. Yes! People taking this and Asher Roth seriously is like taking the Teletubbies seriously to me.

I like it. It's definitely not lead-single-from-an-album material, but its better than most of Perfect Symmetry and manages to successfully blend the sound of that album with their earlier work, which is exactly what I wanted.

Looks like this is one of those songs everyone's embarrassed to admit they actually like. Yep! Love this.

I prefer the original. I loved "Poppíholla" and especially "Hiding All The Stars" from this project. The whole thing is getting a little strange. He's been promising to release a covers EP for a year now and just keeps releasing singles from it with no word of even a title.

This is one of my favourite country songs. It's a Patty Griffin cover. It was released as a single in 2004 after their controversy and failed to chart. The lyrics are fantastic and are reflected really well in the video.

A surprisingly great cover. My favourite Dixie Chicks song is "Top Of The World".
