Nice. I keep seeing a greatest hits record for him at Best Buy. Did he get dropped by his label?

It's different from anything else he's done, but I love it. Already a step up from City of Black and White.

This should be doing so much better!
At the same time I'm puzzled as to why they'd release this as the lead single over "Ships in the Night" or "Down."

I agree--I prefer both of those two and "Count On Me" over this. "Down" is the current Christian single, so I'm kind of hoping one of the other two is next up.

I personally consider this his worst release ever. It's so....generic sounding.

I think this is a great, snappy lead single. It's perfect for the summer, whereas some of the other songs mentioned above would be wonderful 2nd and 3rd singles. Young Love truly is a fantastic album with some solid songwriting.

Young Love truly is a fantastic album with some solid songwriting. I agree to an extent. I think "Hey Mama" is great and when I first heard it, I thought it would become his biggest Pop hit. I didn't expect it to flop hardcore! Considering how "Ships in the Night" blew up on iTunes upon the album release, I really hope his label paid attention there. They could have a monster on their hands but only if they play their cards right.

I find this song a bit dull. And I agree the sound is generic and not in a good way.

I think this is being used as background music in a Red Lobster commercial
