she looks good, but i truly HATE this song. The chorus is the best part of the song, i admit; but that’s it. Unfortunately she’s gonna bomb.

The videos nice real simple i was expecting somewhat of a concept but none the less its a decent video. Amerie was def lookin good with those tight spandex pants:) Hopefully her second single will be that monster that she needs to hit hard for the release of her album cause im not sure if this is it.

It’s too much like 1 Thing’s music video imo.
I think they could’ve done more with a concept. But I still love her for going for her unique sound.

I wasn’t such a big Amerie fan before but this song and video made me a fan. She’s so original. The song doesn’t sound like anything on radio which is great. Awesome video as well.

I love this video & song a lot just as much as I love Amerie! Love the concept although I think there was parts where she had a little to much makeup on! Overall real dope video though!

I reckon if this song is promoted right it could be a hit! When I first heard it I wasn’t too sure about it but the more I listen to it the more I love it! Songs like this have proven to be hits in the past, for instance when I first heard RiRi’s Umbrella I didn’t know if I was completely sold on it but I eventually liked it and it ended up being a huge smash. Same goes for Single Ladies, at first I didn’t think it was that great of a Beyoncé song but once I saw the video the more I started to listen to it and I ended up loving it! So here’s high hope for Miss Amerie!

Sorry I’m not feelin this track so much…I’ll admit she’s lookin HELLA HOT but the song isn’t really no.1 material in my opinion. It doesn’t have that “1 thing” feel where when you heard it you knew it was gonna be a smash. I LOVE Amerie though cause she’s so original and HOT but…I don’t know…maybe it will grow on me. Hopefully the new label will give her the promotion she deserves cause she was so slept on at Columbia.

The video obviously outranks the song, with a 3putta4 and in the overall quality of the song a 2.3. I think the song will chart cuz its different anything else out now, however she shoulda innovated her style more cuz I feel she hasn’t had any growth in personality & in music, however that’s jus the rating I giv the song(as being a critic I hav to be fair) but I’m diggin the song & video. Personally I’d giv both the song & video a 4 but I hav to give the honest truth.

Hope it’s a promo song like Go girl 4 Ciara, she needs to release some banger, that kinda RNB used to sale like 5 years ago, now it’s all about “whats going to make everybody dance”
