I’m LOVING this dance pop resurgence with Sam. They’re voice is made for this genre. Dancing With A Stranger, How Do You Sleep and this song cemented my love for them.

It's like they went to just one circuit party or some classics night at a hole in the wall pub and think that the world is their oyster and a Jacqueline Susann novel and got drunk on Colt 45 and then thought it would be a kii to cover one of the greatest, most influential Dance/Electronic songs of ALL TIME using what is basically a karaoke track based on the arrangement from the Afrojack remix which was barely passable to begin with. This is absolutely not the tea hunny. Still canceled for me. Self-parody and an excuse to use random references. In other words, perfectly on-brand.

I didn't realize this was Sam until I started to hear the "I feel love" parts. I'm not sure if it's a remix I'm listening to because there are no verses or anything but the song is a good sound for them.

The original song was loosely structured like this in terms of lyrics and stuff. It’s only missing some of the lyrics.

Also use some punctuation because that whole post was more tiring than your usual.

Donna Summer, honey I am so sorry I don't really like this tbh and it only just made me want to listen to the OG to forget about this
It's not like bad, I'm just not into it like how I am with the original and I felt nothing for this

Such a faithful cover except the stuttering vocal effect. They paid proper homage. On the party playlist next to Heaven On Earth by Britney.

I don't mind it at all, but probably won't revisit it unless they make a really nice video for it (unlikely that they'll do one for a promo single). OH HELL TO THE FU CKING NO. How dare Sam Smith cover that particular song? It is an untouchable classic that everyone and their redheaded stepchild and their cute little dog have covered and/or sampled already. Late response is late but how is it untouchable when so many people have already touched it? I am confusion (and you are overreaction). Even if one didn't like the final result, the world isn't going to end just because Sam wanted to tackle a queer anthem.

Besides this isn’t like Taylor Swift covering Earth, Wind & Fire’s September, Sam is capable of doing Donna justice... I don't think I've ever read anything that's annoyed me this much.

If you asked me to write a list of artists that I DIDN'T want to sing a cover of "I Feel Love." Sam Smith would have been top three, if not number one.
Everything I dislike about his voice is displayed on this track. The instrumental is fine though, but of course it is, it's aping one of the most influential and classic instrumentals of all time.

The dramatics over a promo single....lol Exactly lol. The pulse gays cannot help themselves over Sam Smith. This song is harmless and yet hot as hell. They all begged for Sam to do uptempo and he’s giving the girls what they’ve been asking for. I love his new disco sound.

Come on I really didn’t mean all members, but the ones that cling on to anything just to drag Sam, especially doing a cover as a promo single is rich.. My apologies.

Oh Jesus Christ, you keep trying to minimize this as a promo single. What does that even matter? Promo single, lead single, third single, album track... WHATEVER. He still covered one of the most iconic dance songs ever recorded and released it out into the world for critique. And that's exactly what we're doing. Critiquing a song. On a site that's main objective is to discuss music. GASP. A shocking concept. If you wanna worship everything Sam Smith, go Google image him and have a hot jerk off session already. There's no need to respond defensively to every post about your fav. Well unless you're leonagwen, then we'll cut you some slack.

It’s all Gucci, it’s doing so well on ITunes despite little promotion, with very little airplay, panned the cover if y’all like, opinions are subjective after all.

I really appreciate it. I have stood my ground on FB about this and have never been dragged this hard for taking the stance I took (the dragging I received over what I said about Tami, Meghan, Tulsi, etc. pales in comparison to what happened here), but you have to speak the truth even if you are the only one speaking it. I was accused of attacking Sam's gender and sexual identity via my thoughts, feelings, and honesty about the song. Disliking one or even several of Sam's songs does not mean that I have an issue.

Tbh... it’s not perfect, in fact I would probably skip it on some listens once the album drops, but I can appreciate them for keeping it faithful to the original, I KNEW this cover is gonna be a mixed bag for the GP
This is the first hit or miss track for the upcoming album, let’s not lose hope yet considering they have been consistently dropping bops all year....
