This sounds like another version of "Fancy". It's okay for what it is.

LOL this must be the second option for the hook of 'Fancy', thank jesus Charli XCX is not featured on this final version, too obvious.

I really don't feel like this is all that similar to Fancy

This is just a rehashed version of "Fancy". The chorus has a nearly identical melody. My guess is that this does worse than "Fancy" and "Black Widow".

I actually love it because it sounds like a hybrid Gives a fresh feel to older songs (and it helps that "Fancy" is still a jam though!)

the only reason i can see why people would complain about this being a rehash of fancy (even tho i consider it more of a hybrid like surf) is because they didn't like fancy in the first place. everyone else should be JAMMING.
btw it's amazing how well this loops with crossfade.

Right now Iggy seems the perfect candidate for new radio darling. This is a third single and the updates are more like a first (after a while without releases)

I still love Fancy and this is as good as it is, not complaining, but I don't think it's good idea for Iggy and her career to recycle stuff this way. Black Widow was 2nd hand Dark Horse too (loved it anyway)

Well its not like its a wild guess to predict this to do worse than Iggy's previous two singles considering they were huge, I'd be happy if this became another hit because it definitely deserves it! I think most people will find that it's a grower too though but I guess we'll see :/

Black Widow was 2nd hand Dark Horse too (loved it anyway) Well this is still her breakout year if you know what I mean, if she manages to score three big hits as a lead on her debut era (with an asterisk for Work going platinum and being a big sleeper hit too) it'd already be amazing for her career, not to mention this is a single of a repackage of the same album anyway. I'm sure she'll switch things up quite a bit for her actual next era/sophomore album judging by her evolution in recent years unless something out of her control prevents her from doing so.

Iggy finally found the magic of a headset mic and slayed on SNL due to it. More fluidity in her choreography was accomplished with it. MØ on the other hand was giving me Lena Dunham awkward teas. Also glad to see Rita Ora show up for the Black Widow section.

Also glad to see Rita Ora show up for the Black Widow section. Can you please translate the bold? Wasn't really feeling the SNL performances. She had some serious breath control issues in the first one, and while she was better in the second one, there was a lot of it - the staging, MO's vocals, etc - that seemed like it needed more time in the rehearsal studio.

That did not translate well live at all. They both sounded horrible and MO was awkward as fuck.

Definitely my least fav of her singles so far. Don't get the Fancy comparisons either. That song is still a total jam, while this is a total bore. Work really should have been re-released over this.

My thoughts on the performance:
Fancy - She needs to get some breath control. Damn! Also, the whole thing was awkward and quiet... and the backup singers attempting to sing the chorus *cringes* I see why they're backup singers now...
Black Widow - Rita did decent, but Iggy just sounds like a man who can't rap... every time I hear this song live it sounds like Patrick Star at his dumbest moments...
Beg For It - Iggy actually did good on this... MO on the other hand. What the actual fuck?!?! Has she ever sung live before?!? Her timing was so bad, the pitch was so off, and she looked so stiff and uncomfortable that it almost seemed like the guys behind her were sexually harassing her... she just ruined a great performance for Iggy.

Her timing was so bad, the pitch was so off, and she looked so stiff and uncomfortable that it almost seemed like the guys behind her were sexually harassing her... she just ruined a great performance for Iggy. I admire Iggy for giving MO the visibility, and she *does* have a great voice, but this really calls into question whether she's right for the kind of high-energy mainstream, dancey, rap-sung collaboration that Iggy is putting out. Rita Ora worked because she's just a sexy, straight-ahead dance-pop singer. Charli worked because even though she's a bit "weirder" and more alternative, she's an extremely electric performer and her musical sensibilities are very much rooted in pop. She's also extremely sexy. MO, at least based on what I saw here, doesn't seem suited for this type of collaboration. She doesn't come across as "fun" and thus seems like she'd be better at providing a haunting backdrop for like an Eminem or Kanye song. But, I'm admittedly not as familiar with her usual live performances - maybe she was just very nervous.

Not as good as Fancy or Black Widow, but I really like it. As others have said, it sounds like a hybrid of those two. I don't think that's a problem if she moves on after this - recapping a great year and a couple of solid hits with something not a million miles away is probably a good move actually.
Ya'll being too harsh, this is fire.

That performance sounds like something I should check out on Youtube
I agree about the point that this is only her debut year so shouldn't be THAT harsh on her... and she did fantastic job and actually broke through after at least 1,5 years of trying. The New Classic is very solid album but I am a bit afraid about her ability to continue successfully after this era.
