Why do her song titles this era look like they belong on a Disney tween starlets album?

^ How are any opinions being stated as facts? People are giving their impressions of the songs and making predictions of its chart performance. "...it just sounds awful and dated. That is what happened here..." Men Expert from L'oreal Paris. Clearly when someone says "This sounds awful and dated" it means "I think this sounds awful and dated." If you don't understand that nuance of language then you are a fucking idiot.

This is so awful. It will not do as well as 'Hook Up'. That song hit the Top 10 because it's Kelly Clarkson. Jordin is not a staple on CHR/Pop so releasing a terrible song like this one is asking for failure. I agree, I just think this is...so bad. I didn't care much for Battlefield (the "get your armor" line killed it for me), but could see its appeal and hook. But I had to really struggle to listen all the way through SOS--doesn't sound like how I remember her sounding, but actually I feel that about several of the leaked songs so maybe I just have the wrong idea about who Jordin Sparks is as a singer. I thought she was great on the few AI performances I've seen on youtube recently (thanks to that AI performance game haha)--really nice voice, but I just don't like her music at all. I was hoping after No Air it was just Tattoo I didn't like, but now that I've heard Battlefield, Emergency, Walking on Snow and SOS, I think it's just her music. A shame for me, but she's clearly got a ton of fans who she is keeping happy and EW gave her a great album review so more power to her.

I think it's really plain and generic considering it's a Jordin song. I can imagine this song coming from several other artists. I think this could do well in the clubs and stuff though.

I actually think this will be a hit! It's a catchy little number! I think it can do as well as 'Goodbye' did.

i just don't see what else could be the second single. she needs a uptempo, she can't just keep releasing midtempos. I think Walking On Snow could have worked well as the second single. You obviously don't understand marketing strategies. That will be released during the winter as a 4th single. ;)

sorry but for ballad i think" it takes more" are better product but i guess "no parade' is definitely a standout track and a great single.

I think this is a good song (although it is essentially just a cover of Let The Music Play with new verses) but not a good song for Jordin Sparks. Does that make sense?
It's stylistically so different to Battlefield, and indeed the whole album. She has a good line in pleasantly MOR pop music and dramatic ballads, but she's categorically not a club diva. I'm not sure if this will really work for her.
I think One Step At A Time epitomised Jordin's unique strength as an artist. She works that sunny, self-empowerment sound really really well. Almost like a late 00s Celine Dion/Amy Grant. Nobody else is really doing that in mainstream pop. This is more of a Rihanna/Beyonce single, and she really shouldn't be trying to compete with those two.
