This was the first single from Bruno's sophomore album, "Unorthodox Jukebox," released in 2012. It was written and produced by The Smeezingtons, in addition to Mark Ronson, Jeff Bhasker and Emile Haynie. It received instant comparisons to The Police. It peaked at #1 at CHR/Pop, #1 on the Hot 100 and #2 in the UK. Fantastic pop song.

I personally hated this song at first, but then quickly warmed up to it! I think I've underrated this song for the longest time...

I thought I liked it when it first came out, but I soon realized that I wasn't a big fan of it. I always turn it when it comes on the radio.

Great song. One of his best. The Police influence is obvious, but it doesn't sound like any specific song by them, which I thought was kind of cool.

Same here. I could never get into it. It didn't help that the verses sounded so similar to Alcazar's "Crying At The Discotheque" and that song was just so much better. |

I loved it, though not initially. Amazing song and one of those that when they come on you're singing your lungs out, lol. That chorus!!!

Incredible song and constantly battles with "It Will Rain" as my favorite Bruno song. I loved this era for him.

One of his best. At the time, it was easily the best thing he had ever done. And let's be honest, the "uhhhhs!" completely make the song. Don't pretend you don't lip sync them when you're listening.

I want to like this. But honestly it feels overrated and kinda underwhelming compared to some of his others. Like after that chorus I expect something big, but it just falls flat.

One of the best songs of the 2010's, and I think The Police influence is brilliant.

Bruno is my favorite artist of the past decade or two but this is among my least favorite by him. i prefer his more r&b songs or ballads.

I like this, but heavy overplay has caused it to wear a bit on me in the past few years.
