I love the synth after the chorus, but I feel like that part of the song is missing something. There is this massive build up during the chorus and you are expecting some sort of a drop, but nothing happens.

Not as pop as 'Boom Clap' but still a very solid pop song in my opinion. If the album is going in that direction, I can't wait.

I like this song. I enjoy the chorus and the synth after it. I have to admit though, I like "Boom Clap" better. Anyway, I hope she finds success with this song.

This is undoubtedly catchy but she's 22 years old and this song sounds like it's coming straight out of high school. Gwen pulled off Hollback Girl well in her mid 30s so I don't see why it would be an issue for Charli.

She's two for two with me. I love this even more than "Boom Clap", and I really hope this is a smash.

Killer song! Even better than "Boom Clap". This is the musical direction the Billboard Hot 100 should go in, instead of....you know?
This could even do great on Alt Rock if pushed in that direction.

So sexy. So excellent.
The lyrics aren't great on paper - but that's nothing new for her. She has that (current-era) Rivers Cuomo style of writing really immature, cheesy lyrics that still end up meshing with the vibe. And that's no surprise since I believe she worked with Cuomo on this album.

Also looks to be release in the UK on October 19 or so. They're really pulling out all the stops to make Charli an international sensation.

I really want to like this.
And I do.
But those lyrics in the chorus.
It's not the immaturity. It's, I hate to say it, the UK-ness. "Putting on our dancing shoes", "going to the discotech". Just...awkward.
I also do wish some amazing beat dropped at the chorus.

Looks like this is getting spins from a few stations. Should hopefully be getting more and more adds before it's release date.

Her album was pushed back 2 months to December.. not sure why she did that? According to her it's because of the unexpected love for Boom Clap. Could they be trying to make break the rules happen before the album release?

Ya looks like they want a hit single before the album is released.

Her songs are catchy but they all sound the same.

Her songs are catchy but they all sound the same. Have you listened to her first album? Nothing on there sounds like Boom Clap or Break The Rules. Superlove (which will hopefully be on sucker) does have some similarities to BTR, but that's about it.
