I thought her first single was “body control”?
songs not bad though.

It was not suppose to feature her vocals, everyone should not let that impact your thought of the song. I agree with what someone posted above, the chorus is the weak part (but probably the part that will make it do well since its easy to remember), but the versus are actually really good. I want everyone to dissect all the lyrics you hear in pop music, its not very good, ever, and I love me some cheesy pop music.

I’d rather delete Leighton’s parts and keep Robin’s. He’s awesome!

I can’t even tell it’s the same Leighton that sang in “Good Girls Gone Bad”. Definately, different vibe. I like both and it definately shows some versatility. I’m a big Britney fan, and if she can get away with songs where she’s talking rather than singing, I’ll let Leighton slide.

BAG OF GENERIC SHIT

i think she only actually sang like ONE line (I know you’re out there (echo) in the 2nd chorus) in the entire song and the rest was sex-ed up talking..

unless that one line was sung by a backup singer, I think she sounded not too bad, if not a tad bit too synthesized..

let’s have some real music featuring real vocals from her please!

“Do your hair, I bought you shoes” ???

The fact that someone was paid for these lyrics is frightening.

HATE.

She dunno how to sing ! Her skills are like Lindsay Lohan’s… nonextistent ! Actually she sounds a lot like Lindsay Lohan did in “Bossy”… the song’s another pop song after another… nothing really interesting to launch a real carreer ! She should take singing classes. She’s a good actress she should stick to it !

Love the girl but this is a craptacular track. It’s like 12 robots singing featuring Leighton and Robin Thick.

By the time it got to the “je t’adore” part, I just felt embarrassed for her- that’s cheesy beyond belief- bad lyrics, boring song. I agree that she actually *does* have a good voice, and I also love the Cobra Starship song for it’s catchiness, but this is not a good example of ..anything.

She actually has a really good voice…when she uses it. She kind of sounds like Regina Spektor.

Oh gosh I hated it. She’s not singing!! She’s speaking!! Even when she tries, the music mix covers her vocals up – probably cos of the lack of good vocals on her part. Reminds me of when Paris Hilton tried to sing. Ew. Come on Leighton you can do better than that!!

That was really bad. Why is is this disco pop the genre all “celebrity” turned singers, save Scarlett Johansson, go to? Paris, Heidi, and now Leighton. It really just seems like they’re trying to mask the fact that their voices are nothing special. Anyone who can carry a tune can do what she did. Actually anyone who can speak can do what she did.
And the lyrics are ridiculous. Also Robin Thicke should stick to actual singing.

I got scared as shit when I saw the title of the song, think she covered Queen. But she didn’t so it’s all good. And the song, especially the lyrics, are so cheesy.

The lyrics are the worst. Did she write them herself?

I really hear nothing special about this song and doesn’t really show much musical or voice talent for her. I think she did okay with this song but going from being known for acting to singing you gotta be amazing for people to take you serious and I just think she didn’t hit the mark.

No points for talking on a track…Despite Robin and my love for Leighton, not at all a fan of this track.
