I love this! It samples the main piano hook from Kylie Minogue's "Get Outta My Way". Let the mashups/medleys commence.

*sigh* They should be pushing "Scars" over this.

*sigh* They should be pushing "Scars" over this. Alesso + Ryan Tedder = perfect always. But "Cool" is a logical, more pop-friendly follow-up to "Heroes". I rather like "Cool" and hope it sees pop success.

Damn I love this song! Usually not a big song of samples, but this one works pretty well plus it is my favorite Kylie Minogue song! It'd be nice to see this song get some traction. Sounds less generic than Heroes and we see how well that did.

Great vocals. Reminds me of "S.T.O.P" by David Guetta and Ryan Tedder.

God! On first listen I was impatiently waiting for Kylie to come on and sing the chorus to my very favorite song of hers. Now that I'm acceptant of the fact that this is a entirely different song, I just enjoy that piano loop so much in any context. After the putrid "Heroes" this is some guilty pleasure commercial EDM that I'm willing to enjoy. Fun little Spring song here!

Well, this is quite a surprise.
Callout scores have come in for this - there seems to be a lot of love for this.
Positive: 67.7% (fourth-highest) Favorite: 21.2% (smack dab in the middle, but not a bad starting figure) Negative: 18.2% (the second-lowest; only "See You Again" is lower)
And yet the song's about to lose its bullet... :'(

Hopefully the report came out in JUST enough time to save this- it's so breezy and has quintessential summer lyrics. It's exactly the type of carefree pop I want to hear if I tune into the radio during summer.

I'm still hearing this though. Could it be one of those flukes that gets a second wind?
