The latest single from David Guetta is called "Lovers on the Sun" and features singer/songwriter Sam Martin. It is now available worldwide on iTunes. The drop imo is a total ripoff of Avicii's "Wake Me Up", but I like this song overall better.

Idk... "One Voice", a song he did with Mikky Ekko, sounded like an Afrojack song as well... Anyway, if I were to rank his post-NBTB songs:
1.) Bad 2.) Ain't A Party 3.) this 4.) Shot Me Down 5.) One Voice

He must have thought: "Oh, if Avicii can make a massive summer hit, I can do it too!".
Guetta, you used to be my #1 dj..

it will be available on June 30. The song imo is a total ripoff of Avicii's "Wake Me Up", it's nearly the exact same. It is so obviously inspired by that. This song sounds decent enough, but I still would prefer "Wake Me Up". I miss the 'old Guetta sound'.

Definitely a ripoff of Wake Me Up, and I didn't even like that song, so... no.
I only like Bad, and even that is a minor like for me.
I miss songs like Titanium and Where Them Girls At!

Idk... "One Voice", a song he did with Mikky Ekko, sounded like an Afrojack song as well... "Shot Me Down" sounded like "Animals" by Martin Garrix. He's been pretty unoriginal this era.

The full song is here. According to the official David Guetta YouTube channel credits, the song is produced by David Guetta, Avicii, Giorgio Tuinfort & Frédéric Riesterer. No wonder it sounds like Avicii.

Not the first time Avicii has overpowered Guetta in a song they worked on together. Remember the similarities between "Sunshine" and "Levels"?

This song sounds great! :) but that's only because of Avicii. Guetta sucks now tbh

Interesting. I wonder if this will make a blip. Guetta has struggled to cross over of late.

The chorus is catchy, but i don't think it will do too well on the USA

I'm surprised that David Guetta has had some issues getting US hits since "Turn Me On". I thought "I Can Only Imagine" and "Play Hard" could become hits, but they didn't. I hope this does, but things aren't looking all that great so far.

She wolf was way better than i can only imagine and Play hard and it flopped even harder.
I think Guetta's sound is too european. The classical song that hits number one on UK but is basically ignored on the USA (or was ignored because lately it's more difficult to find UK's number ones that are totally ignored in the USA).
This probably will get a bigger push, it's his first bif release in the USA in a good while. I think if the sales are good the radio will jump on it, but i can't see this being his next Without you (maybe in a couple of months i will be here to say how wrong i was)

I hope this does, but things aren't looking all that great so far. I think you mean since "Titanium", which actually that one all by itself could explain "I Can Only Imagine" and "She Wolf" not catching on due to airplay hang-over.
