Jake Miller's newest single goes for pop adds next week (July 15), according to FMQB.

This has hit potential but it's so predictably boring. Just trite. Repetitive, boring four chord progression that's been done to death in the chorus, cheesy sterile beat, corny rapper, etc. It's everything I hate in song format.

To be honest, I'm kind of surprised Jake Miller hasn't had a massive hit yet.

Meh. It took me a while to get into "Collide" but this is kinda boring.

Looks-wise, He is easily the hottest pop boy out right now. Bye Beiber/Mahone/Cody, byeee.

His last album was so good. Not sold on Collide as a single though not surprised it didn't work. This is really good, but probably a little too down-tempo to be his breakthrough hit.

On second thought, this should smash. Yeah, it's generic and kinda downtempo but it all works so prefectly.

Eh, this is better than "Collide," at least. I just wish Jake would release another song like "What I Wouldn't Give," which was super catchy and had a memorable hook.

They changed the version of this on Spotify, now it's slower and a little more acoustic. #donotlike

I just love this song so much. I'm pulling for this to be his breakout hit. Us Against Them was a fantastic debut album and I'm really looking forward to his next record. I've become pretty into him since the start of this year, and I'm rooting for him to be huge. I feel like he's on the verge of just blowing up big.  |

My friend wrote this song with him, and they did a couple more together - can't wait to hear the others! I hope this does well!
If you like Jake you might like my friend's first single that he just debuted the video for. I'm trying to help a friend out here haha, but the song is awesome!

Top 50 with a bangin bullet. Finally going to get his pop smash. Wish it were a different song, but I'll take it, this isn't bad.

I don't understand the appeal of this one. What's the point of a song featuring subpar rapping and subpar singing?

Good update today and up to #38 overall but still nothing on iTunes and generally moving slowly. Breaks my heart that the 2nd best pop song of the year is struggling this badly.
