This is the worst song on the album. I actually find a few of his songs surprisingly catchy but "U Smile" is just plain bland.

This is such a bland song. I like her other songs better, though they don't really fit on AC.

I was disappointed to hear this new single. It sounds very bland. I hope the rest of her album is better. I did like the lead single from "Afterglow" but the follow-up singles were weak.

He totally sounds like a girl. It's distracting when watching the video. The song is alright...

It's alright. It's sounds like a generic dance song.

I've been hearing this a lot on the AC station lately. It's from Garou's first English-language album.

Sounds like a novelty-type song. I do like it, though, since it's catchy.

I don't mind her singing, but this song is very bland, like those American/Canadian Idol winner songs. It grew on me slightly after hearing it such much during Olympic coverage, but I still don't like it.

I don't mind the rap, but they shouldn't have had Justin Bieber start it off. He can sing, but it was a weak beginning.

If this song is ignored then it will prove radio is ignoring them just because they happen to be a boy band from the 90's/early 00's pop era. The band hasn't been "cool" for 10 years, so even if radio gave them a chance, they would have to somehow make themselves relevant to the teen crowd. The song is rather generic, but their songs usually grow on me so I'd definitely like to hear it on the radio. Too bad it's not making much of a dent at Hot AC either, and if even that older crowd thinks the Backstreet Boys are uncool, then they really have little chance at CHR.

I didn't realize "Heartbreak Hotel" was a collaboration when it first came out so I didn't pick that one even though it's one of my favorite Whitney Houston songs.
I picked Whitney Houston and Deborah Cox... the emotion felt raw in that song, unlike "When You Believe", which I also like.

On the deluxe edition of the GH the radio version is a bonus track on the 2nd disc. Does the radio version sound like the live one or the studio one on "Taking Chances"? Did it not even make the top 15 on AC? :'(

This song is kind of dull. It grew on me a little, though.

I just borrowed her two latest CDs from a friend so I listened to this song... I prefer the version on the "Taking Chances" album than the live version on the compilation CD. They should have released it as a second single after "Taking Chances". I never heard this on the radio.

I like the song but I'm not surprised it didn't catch on at CHR/Pop... too soft and Colbie Caillat's popularity was already waning. I also agree they waited too long, but it was already unexpected that "I'm Yours" got so much play and the CHR "quota" for this type of song had already been filled.

I guess if AC is playing Katy Perry's "Hot N Cold", then they can play this too... I hardly listen to this format now.

What's the quality of the MP3? What's the format when you download a song from itunes?

It reminds me of a song off "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie".

I found it repetitive and not very good on first listen, but I can't help liking it.

I like the song but I can see myself tiring of it soon, so I can't say it would be one of her top 5 songs for me in the long run.

"Baby" and "Oops". They both sound very similar, so I like them both.

You're Beautiful Burn What Hurts the Most Amazed Complicated
I also wanted to choose "Breathe", "Be Without You" and "Irreplaceable".

I was wondering why there was this new trend. I guess it makes sense about the environment though it's not like people throw out their CD cases on a regular basis. The "Prince Caspian" soundtrack was in a cardboard case too with a booklet inside.

"Tattoo"... though I've only heard "Crush" once.
