Why all the hate for this guy? Out of all the songs thats leaked, I was really wanting Red Dress. :( As far as his first album goes, I don't know why the hate. I thought it was really solid and catchy reggae pop. But I've been very underwhelmed by what's leaked from his 2nd album so far.

beat powers over his voice, especially in the chorus, no hook

This song seems alright, but all of the singles from his first album had really strong hooks which was made them so likeable...this lacks that. I'm not sure how this is going to do, it seems kind of messy.

I pretty much hated all the singles from his last album (I guess "Take You There" was okay), but I think this one is pretty catchy. I really like the beat of it. With RedOne's recent success with Lady GaGa and the fact that Sean has 2 top 10s on the Pop chart, this should be a hit.

This is way better than Poker Face. I don't get the comparisons.

I like this and agree that it is similar to Poker Face. Should do nicely imo.

Just about any single tops Poker Face frankly. I mean PF is just the same song as Just Dance with slightly lamer lyrics and I was sick of Just Dance months ago. Fire Burning is a decent though not amazing song, but when compared to something like PF, you'd end up thinking Sean Kingston was Mozart.

Oh! Nice!! This is like Take Me There Part II, revamped with an influence of Poker Face (especially the middle break with him almost talking makes it easier to compare with PF). I prefer him doing this than thee insipid Beautiful Girls, though. Sounds very summery!

Production is out of this world! This should easily go top 10 on CHR.
Anyone else think this is also well suited for Flo Rida?

So a Jamaican reggae-influenced artist named Sean gets a #1 hit off his major-label debut... and releases a follow-up album with "Burning" in the lead single's title. This has happened twice now.

^That's a VERY bizarre combo. This is growing on me a bit. Still don't really get the PF comparisons though.

Pink/Sean Kingston?! :o That is even weirder than the duet Sean Kingston/Natasha Bedingfield. He is such a lucky dude!

He must like touring with female pop/rock singers or something. He opened some shows for Kelly Clarkson's Australian leg of the My December tour.

This sounds way too much like Poker Face. I just threw up a little bit. Please NEVER compare something on the level of mediocrity that this is to something on the level of pop brilliance like Poker Face. P-p-p-pop brilliance? P-p-p-poker Face? Obviously I can't read this right.
