I can't at you all being upset that a Hilary Duff songs sounds like a Hilary Duff song. Seriously... What did y'all expect?
And, hasn't it always been "white suburban Becky's" (and the gays who love them) who've been Duff listeners?? What other demographic has she ever reached?

When I first heard this I was reminded of Sheryl Crow and Colbie Calliat and that isn't surprising since Colbie is one of the co-writers. I like it, and it's more suited for Hot AC than Pop.

It's catchy but very basic... nothing groundbreaking here but I didn't expect her to go all wild all start singing about touching herself. It's a cute song, well suited for HAC, nothing that's gonna get people talking which is what she needs right now. Oh well.

She's so beautiful, this has grown on me quite a bit, and I find the chorus to be quite catchy!!!
Great music video!!!

I like it. Its very laid back and breezy. This is a "go hang out with your best friend forever song".
And the video is adorable.

shes still beautiful and catchy little tune but i really think she should have went more EDM/Dance Pop! this sound is a slightly dated in my opinion! all i can hear in my head after listening to it is Sheryl Crow "Soak Up The Sun" or something to that effect! still love you tho Hilary! my fav song will probably always be "Come Clean"

I like this one. I feel like it'll be a grower, but I like the nice summery feel to it.

Very cute video to match a very cute song but, again, I don't think all this cuteness is going to cut it. Nothing about this will help her make a grand return to pop music.
That said, she looks GREAT! Such natural beauty.

This is unfortunate. It sounds like a reject from the Legally Blonde soundtrack.

She is still adorable, whether I like this song or not. There's always been something so sweet and relate-able about her, and she hasn't lost that. I've always wanted to be besties with her, lol.

It's the kinda song she should release in July. I don't understand those complains. It's light, summery & dreamy. The video is FUN. I still have a hard time believing SHE'S BACK.

I do find it odd that when she was younger she tried to distance herself from the Lizzie McGuire chick flick persona everyone knew her for, and now seems to be putting herself right back in that pigeon hole.

I think she's going for that, "I'm not going to be completely sexual, I'm a mother now" kind of thing, which makes total sense.

Sounds like something id hear while eating in Ruby Tuesday. Doesn't show any growth. If i didnt know who the singer was id think it was Paris Hilton.

I'm so glad she's finally ready to back in the game but this song is just too weak for a comeback single. She looks stunning in the video and everything about this song is cute but I'm not impressed at all. When most of us expected "Dignity 2.0" type of comeback from her, she simply goes back to her Lizzie McGuire days...
Ooh, and I don't know why but she sounds like Paris Hilton here and there... Weird.

I really don't see the Paris Hilton similarities, whatever Ive had this on repeat since it leaked.

She sounds like Paris on stars are blind and looks like Natasha Beddingfield. I could see this maybe doing something on AC but not pop

When most of us expected "Dignity 2.0" type of comeback from her, she simply goes back to her Lizzie McGuire days... Dignity was her lowest selling album. While I loved the album, I think it's smart for her to revisit her most popular sound rather than what turned a lot of young people off to her (also, the sound was ahead of it's time).

#7 on iTunes Canada
I wonder if this is the actual first single or more of a buzz single to get the old fans on board for the new project. She's on a major label now so that wouldn't make sense to me to release this as a proper first single in this day and age. I do like the song, it's light, cute, summery but not first single material when you are attempting a comeback.

I do agree this is weak for a comeback single (unless it's a buzz single, in which case it's fine) BUT I do love this. It's light and cheerful fun, and the video is adorable. I'm so glad she is back. I'm sure she has more "adult" songs waiting in the wings, but jumping out with something like that to me would seem a bit desperate.
