I really liked this song, and the video was decent. I think she just didn't have anything special about her, and now will most likely be a 1 hit wonder unless she comes back with something super duper amazing.

The performance was bad, but I don't think that is the only reason she is flopping. Overall, it just doesn't seem like her music or her image is unique enough or catchy enough to standout. Not necessarily saying she should start doing crazy stuff, but there is nothing about her that really makes her something-the music is catchy, but not epic or worthy of being one of the biggest hits of the year, she is cute but nothing OMGGGGGG!!! worthy, and she doesn't have, or at least hasn't shown, amazing performance or vocal skills. I wish they had taken a bit more time to craft what type of artist she would be a bit more and get better songs. I guess they thought Goodbye would do it though.

I agree. She checks all the right boxes:
1. Cute 2. Catchy Songs 3. Good voice
Where she suffers is here:
1. Performance Skills 2. Buzz 3. Uniqueness
I agree that they should have waited putting out a full length album. Are there any record labels out there that put out only singles for their younger artists and wait to release a full length album until they have a more solid fanbase? I think that would be the smart thing to do for someone like Kristinia. Put out 2-3 songs on iTunes, push them to radio, put out some nice but not super expensive videos, put her on the road performing as an opening act or doing small clubs and stuff, all the while cultivating her fanbase, and THEN put out an album with bigger promotion and a bigger fanbase intact.
That's how I'd do it anyways, but hey, nobody asked me.

So sad this didn't go anywhere but back down. I love this song a lot more than Goodbye.

I agree. This is actually my favorite song off her album.

I dont think the remix is bad at all, I actually like it over the original beat.

I think its sad that BEP can release anything and it can rocket up the charts, while we get this true Pop gem here and it can't do well at all.
Who is Kristinia's label? They need to dish out more money to the stations.

Kristinia's on Island Def Jam, which is surprising given their total lack of support for this single. It's a really great song that should have blown up on the charts.

Yeah, she has absolutely no buzz going for her. Like it's been said, she's not all that unique, nor is her music, so she's an artist that needs a lot of promo...and she's not getting it.

I think they should've stayed with "Future Love" as the second single...
