I've always enjoyed her singles. Can't wait to hear "Brave".

She came hard with "King of Anything." Too bad it was doomed to underwhelm at pop radio. Excited for this.

She's great! Very catchy, good lyrics, nice voice. I look forward to this.
The other day actually "Love Song" came on at work and 3 guys (myself included) all just singing along...knew all the words. LOL

I think she has a shot for another medium size hit with this :) Good beat, solid message/lyric and people seem to still really like her.
Lyric Video was very well done as well.

This is okay. I loved her other two lead singles on first listen. This is kind of corny and not as catchy.

This is a very generic effort coming from her. King of Anything is still flawless.
I agree this sounds so corny not to mention cheesy.

I can see it on Hot AC, but IMO that's about it - lyrics are too corny

Kurt mentioned to be privately about this sounding like "Machine Gun" off her last album and I do see a few similarties between the two songs. Anyways, she delivered for me. I'm hoping for it to be at least a "King Of Anything" sized hit.

It's okay. I liked "King of Anything" a lot more, but it's not bad. It'll probably grow on me.

It's good, but what I'll be really looking forward to is the second single because her second singles are always far better than her lead singles.

I LOVE THIS. The message has definitely been overdone at this point, but it's super catchy, and better to have a positive message out there on the radio rather than a negative one. Can't wait for her record.

Great vocals, but the song is sort of lackluster.

If this is a pop flop, we need to overthrow ClearChannel.

Both of her albums were miles and miles better than the lead single, and this should be no exception.

Did this song die? I thought it could've been Sara's comeback.

It's not really being promoted to pop yet (oops to me for opening this thread, I guess ), but it's Top 30 on HAC.

Why wouldn't she promote it at pop it is so pop She's really an HAC (hot adult contemporary) artist at the core, so my guess is she'll do what I believe she's done in the past: wait until it's a hit on HAC, then send the song for pop adds.

Yeah you are right as poppy as this sounds it doesn't quite fit into the pop songs radio is playing now.
