Camille Velasco "Hangin' On" (Universal)
I've heard some of it and it sounds quite good actually. She's worked with Pras from The Fugees.

I wonder if her sounding like Lauryn Hill has anything to do with her workin with Pras ;). Anyway, I heard a clip of this when she was doing an interview on tv and it's actually not that bad.

I always figured she had a lot of potential as a recording artist, so I'd love to hear this.

Camile was my favourite from AI season 3! I can't wait to hear this.

She always sounds like she has a cold. It kind of sucks that she had to take the entire hook from The Supremes to make a catchy song.

The really weird thing is as I was listening to it I was like "I hope her vocals in the other songs don't make it sound like she's holding her nose while she sings".
But if it's always like that, then yeah... she's annoying.

Not bad. It took me half way through to realize that the chorus is from the old Supremes song.

Her vocals are horrible. Motown has completly lost it. Im really glad Asain artists are trying to break through. Shell flop, but shell do better than recent idol attempts (John Stevens, Corey Clark, Jasmine Trias( :'())

The production is actually really hot and the sample works very well, but yeah, her vocals doesn't sound too good. I like her high notes though. Anyway, I hope the best for her, this is actually a stronger single than most Idol-rejects, so we'll see.

It's really good but her vocals are annoying in the verses.

I finally heard it. I liked Camile on the show, but that song is pure crap, IMO. She coulda done hella better.

I *think* she wrote all the verses. If so, they are pretty good lyrically. Oh, and there is a remix with Pras that features new lyrics and a new beat - it's more R&B apparently.
-----------
Set me free...
Well everyday is just the same
the same games we play from day to day
Will we find another way?
'Cause nothing's changed and love remains
Because I try to see
but all your lies confine all we used to be
and now there's nothing
I know I tried my best
when here the only thing to do is just
*Chorus:
Set me free why don't you, babe
Get out my life why don't you, babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on
Set me free why don't you, babe
Get out my life why don't you, babe
'Cause you don't really love me
You just keep me hangin' on*
Everyday I wanna run away
'Cause I can't hide the pain
that slowly flows through my veins
Too many times we've apologized
'Cause it's too hard to try to make it right
and all I do
is hold on to
memories of you and me
There never was reality (ooh)
Now that there's nothing left
why should I try my best
when the only thing to do is just
*chorus*
Don't try,
try to pretend that it's all right
when you know it isn't
Well then let go
Get out my life
'Cause you keep me hangin' on
Don't say
or try to tell me that it's okay
I'm looking straight ahead for better days
where you can't keep me hangin' on
*chorus* x2
