Honestly, I think this could be a huge hit. Massive. This is extremely strong.

I'd love to see more South Asian style in mainstream music...so I'm all for it! What??? How about "Buttons?" ...Um and what about "Bottle Pop..." it definately has a South Asian styled arrangement, because they were trying to make it "Buttons 2." But this is just too messy... Maybe Nicole is a curse...christ... I mean the Pussycat Dolls ft Nicole Scherzinger....WTF??? If Interscope wants to highlight Nicole pull the old Diana Ross & The Supremes, Martha Reeves and the Vandellas gag...Make it Nicole Scherzinger & the Pussycat Dolls...but don't make it featuring her like she's not even a part of it. Buttons was Middle Eastern (especially the little breakdown part in the video, total belly dancer part) all the way, nothing South Asian about it.

Please don't talk about things you don't know...
The song 'Bottle Pop' hasn't even been released to Australia yet, the Music Video just got released to TV stations and the song has jumped up out of nowhere in Itunes Top 100.
It's now at #67 and for the last week it has been rising everyday.
It hasn't been released instores yet...
So How can it bomb without a release date?

I just listened to this and I actually really like it, surprisingly. Are they going to try to use this as PCD's main new single, though? I just can't imagine radio playing it but I guess we'll see.

Hmm, it's ok. It'll take a few more listens for me to decide if I like it or not.

its just upsetting they might pass up bottle pop for this.

The beginning with the humming is definately South Asian too...plus a lot of their musical stylings are similar...

After a first listen I definitely think this is still a mistake. Bottle Pop is so superior. Why can't they just release that first and then this after? Its not like radio PD's are gunna be like "oh, I really liked Slumdog Millionaire so I'll play this regardless". The movie hype will only take it so far.

Maybe when this loses the Oscar tomorrow night they'll scrap this and then say they're releasing Out Of This Club only to scrap that a week later and announce Elevator. Seriously I think they're just scrapping singles for the LULZ at this point.

I've loved this since it first leaked. I think if it's promoted correctly and has a brilliant video it could be a huge hit for them.

i think i'm becoming ok with this song being the next single. it is a really good song and it would definitely be a hit. i like bottle pop more and i would prefer it to be next, but i think this will be the song that puts pcd back on the map. it also has kind of a buttons feel, and that was my favorite song from them.
i just hope they release bottle pop after this. that NEEDS to be a single.

It's not that bad. I'll need to listen to it a few more times before it eventually grows on me. The only thing that ruins it for me is how Nicole says "Jai Ho". Otherwise, it's got a great tune and the beat's alright.

The chorus of this song is killer. The verses are weak though.

who knows what's going on. Interscope has a bunch of morons managing artists' careers right now.

i just read that bottle pop is being released in the uk in april? I guess so...once "Whatcha Think About That" finishes its run through the end of next month. I'm also reading that "Bottle Pop" will be released in Germany and Austria next month (March 6), about the same time as North America. It's already charting on German iTunes before the single's offcial release.

yeah i read that about germany and austria too. its cool that it's already charting on itunes. so i guess bottle pop will be a single in europe but what about the us & canada? is it still being released even though jai ho is going for adds? and some people are saying it's released in oceana and some are saying it isn't. i know it's on itunes and i read that it is released but in an earlier post someone said it hasn't been officially released. does anyone know about that?

So A.R performed this at the Oscar's AND it actually won for Best Original Song. Wow, they are definitely going with this now. It looks that way. If they decide to go ahead with this, I hope that the sample we've heard so far is not the final cut, and that it gets re-done with the correct pronounciation of the song title. That being said, since this is not an album track, I assume that this could more or less put an end to any more singles being released, after "Bottle Pop", which might be shelved until late spring/early summer. Unless they really want to risk having two songs out there at the same time. Watch for this song to pick up on iTunes in the upcoming days.
