It's happy and it's HIPPY. Laid back.
I'll hope for a mid-tempo then and not a ballad.

Finally some confirmation, all that maybe this Monday maybe next Monday stuff was getting annoying. Those descriptions definitely weren't what I was expecting, but they sound good nonetheless. A break from the dance stuff might be good for her.

I love a lot of her singles, but hate a lot of others. Hopefully this is on the love side. :'(

Making music is her career, why should she take years off? I don't get to take years off from my job. Not her fault that other artists are just lazy as hell. Not a Rihanna fan, but I totally agree with everything you said. More artists should satisfy their audience instead of taking long breaks between albums. As for Rihanna, I usually like her lead singles.

I'm ready for her new CHEERS tbqh and the description ( happy, hippy but not dancy) it sounds like it could be in that vein. "Cheers" is by far is her most anthemic song imo and it's really shame it's life was so stifled by CKB and WFL. It would have been huge.

It's a shame Cheers wasn't released instead of California King Bed, it would have been huge had it had more time to build... but at least we got CKB's video (which IMO, is the most beautiful we've ever seen Riri). I'm glad she's not releasing WFL 2.0 (I'm sure the 2nd single will be like that though), something along the lines of What's My Name, Cheers or even Rude Boy would be great and a nice change of pace for her

Well, here is my take:
She has found an interesting formula that seems to work for her.
She will release 3-4 hit singles but by the end of each era the hits are not as strong and doesn't overshadow a new era.
I think if she goes with 2 risky and/or different singles at first and then ends with the safe obvious hit (where have you been) then she can keep this pattern going.
The album sales are slowing down, the singles sales are slowing down but she has an uncanny way of being overexposed on radio with severe consequences. Maybe because she isn't doing too much ;)
I still think that she will stop after this album (7 contract album deal) and spread things out more in the future but I am actually excited for this era.
Hoping for a #1 album for November 20, 2012. November 13 is too busy October and the first week of November will be owned by tswizzle and alicia is a threat on November 27, 2012.
Good luck to the diamonds era.

Rihanna's gotta slow down a little! She's making it nearly impossible for radio stations to program her tracks sometimes! I wish my station could play more of her gold tracks, but because she has something current out ALL THE TIME, they got lost in the shuffle. Sure, most of Rihanna's tracks are throw-away fluff pieces, but there are a handful that I'd be okay spinning today.

I love the title i can't even imagine what it would sound ;like but im sure she wont disappoint with the video hopefully her single order however needs to closely watched and guarded this era not releasing Firebomb was a crime not releasing cheers after what's my name would have been EPIC and not releasing Where Have You Been after WFL would have been better than you da one

I think she's in good hands with Sia on board. Want another Esther track as well.

Had a feeling she'd release something this fall. Is it true that this will be hippie and laid-back, yet happy? I actually might like it; wouldn't mind if it's more along the lines of "Unfaithful" or "Hate That I Love You". I'm sure she won't disappoint.

Happy and Hippy sounds like it could be... idk, chillwave? I'm thinking Washed Out meets Millionyoung if Rihanna's name is on this. I would actually be excited about that, but Benny Blanco and Stargate do not lend to that theory at all. Sighs. I cant wait for this. Are we sure that she said hippy? and not happy? and it was just her accent? hippie is like 60's southern rock. lol Wouldn't be surprised if she said both. Have you seen her look lately? Had a feeling she'd release something this fall. You and everyone else ever.

I'm getting Cheers vibes to be honest..remember a producer saying she was trying to go for a "stadium sound?"
If its anywhere as anthemic as that this will smash.

It's her worst single to date.. let's cross our fingers it's nothing like that. However, I think it's nice that it's (assuming?) something different from her past two lead singles. I loved both of them, but it's nice if she releases something different (and not dance) this time around as a lead.

It may be worth noting that while she did say you wouldn't be dancing to it, it doesn't mean that it couldn't be electronic orientated.
