This is way too Urban for Pop, and this sounds like something from Timbaland's first "Shock Value".
I don't think will do that well at Pop. If she is going the urban route it might work.
BTW: This isn't bad at all. It's actually quite hot. IDK why they are releasing this as her lead single though.

The response wasn't too great for this so I'm quite suprised they went with it. I'd love this to do well for Jordin but I feel it'll get lost in the shuffle. I hate the bridge but I like the actual song. Just not single material.

This got such a horrendous response when they leaked the clip, my mind is absolutely blown as to why they went ahead with it anyway.

Tedder is very hit or miss. I'm not sure if he's holding back better material. You can Add Sleepwalker to the list of good songs.

I think the music video will be her first 'sexy' music video, cos she has lost weight and became skinnier

In that case why not keep looking for something stronger. It's not like she is in a rush or anything. They should take the time to make sure they have absolutely the best material possible. This is it for her, if this album flops she is done. Or maybe this is just a "buzz" single ? It sounds like a Disney star trying to go hard. o wait... lol so true. I think the music video will be her first 'sexy' music video, cos she has lost weight and became skinnier I'm sorry but she needs some more time in the gym before she can flaunt it in a sexy video.

This is catchy, I like the sound. But I'm really not crazy about the lyrics at all, they're pretty weak and cliche (the second verse is a bit better than the first, but it's not saying much). The hook and the bridge are really simplistic and repetitive but that's where the catchiness comes in and they carry the song, which I guess is what matters these days.
I wish she'd held on to Complicated tbh.

I wish she'd held on to Complicated tbh. Unlike a lot of people, I don't think "Complicated" would have fit her voice at all. She should have kept Selena Gomez's "Who Says." It's corny as hell, but it would have probably gotten a better reception than this song. On the other hand, I do know she is trying to move away from that image.

Jordin would have been better off with "Complicated" & "Who Says" than this shit.

I like it, by the way. It's not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be.

I'm nearly in tears after reading all these comments. :'( Then you should read the comments/reviews on MJ's Big Blog, Outspoken NYC, Rickey.org, IDF, That Grape Juice, Idolator, etc... instead. A lot of people are really loving this

^ Also ATRL, they loved it there. :) Jordin could have released Single Ladies and people here at Pulse wouldn't have been satisfied. Oh wait, the majority of people here hated Single Ladies when it first came out! But then it started "growing on them" when the song became a hit after the video came out. ;)

LOL Yeah, Pulse is weird...
I can't recall the amount of songs people thought would flop and ended up smashing.

Everyone at ATRL is LOVING this! It's like posters here are listening to a completely different song. Oh well.

I like Jordin and want her to do well but this song is really just not good. I don't see it doing anything for her, hopefully I am wrong. I think this is worse that S.O.S. I was hoping for something more like 'Walking on Snow'...

...but people on MJ's Big Blog, Outspoken NYC, Rickey.org, IDF, That Grape Juice, Idolator say it's good so it MUST be good.
Opinions on blogs are totally irrelevant. At least on this board there is a group of people that understands radio and radio trends and what is a hit single and what isn't. Not everyone but more than a few.
