Not feeling the styling at all. Apparently it's "featuring Calvin Harris." According to the single cover, yup. Love the cover.

I see more Madonna circa Madonna.
Seems like she's going for the visual aesthetic of Rated R along with the sound of Loud.

ft. Calvin Harris will hold this back on the US side I believe; he just isn't the name here that he is internationally

Yellow diamonds in the light And we're standing side by side As your shadow crosses mine What it takes to come alive It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny But I've gotta let it go We found love in a hopeless place We found love in a hopeless place We found love in a hopeless place We found love in a hopeless place Shine a light through an open door Love and life I will divide Turn away cause I need you more Feel the heartbeat in my mind It's the way I'm feeling I just can't deny But I've gotta let it go We found love in a hopeless place SMASH Lyrics! Inspiring grinding already!

I don't think it will hold it back. Rather, it will just create more of a name for him here.

She looks like Left Eye on the cover. Don't know what to think of it, it's random that's for sure.

I love how risque she is becoming with her style and overall persona. And lets not forget that Commander "featured" David Guetta yet all you hear from him in that song is the production. I think its just a new arrangement artists are doing when they collaborate with European producers.

i keep wondering if any of you have thought, "what if it isn't good? Then what?"
i'm excited for the morning and i hope it's super hot, but...what if it isn't? What will be her position then?
aren't any of you the slightest bit scared? I'm not even a super-fan and i'm kinda scared. I can't imagine what some of you others might be thinking...

Her position? This could flop and she'd still have been sitting on a better era overall than everyone but Adele.

No way. it won't flop, lol, as that's just silly. I'm just wanting to hear both sides. All i'm hearing is this is an instant #1 and that's all there is to it. But what if?

No, but it's hardly a make or break it single for her. If it performs poorly it hardly puts her in a position that she couldn't recover from quickly. If it performs fantastically, it's not really gonna put her in a better position than she is already in either.

I have this feeling this will be Reggae-Dance esque.
Love the cover.

That has got to be the most ugliest single cover ever.
But still excited for the song.
