This is really the first Gwen Stefani that I like since "Don't Speak". And the reason why I like the song is because of the sample, it's smoove! This song is absolutely catchy, this could be another Urban top ten for her. As you know top 40 is playing a lot of urban leaning songs any way, so I won't be surpirsed if this makes the top ten.

She looks great in the video! Also, it's funny seeing Harajuku girls dressing and acting like normal people. I HATE how someone other than Biggie is rapping over the beat though! It's one thing for Gwen to be singing over that beat (Biggie sampled it himself afterall), but then the rapper comes and it's just like LEAVE BIGGIE'S SHIT ALONE!

Just seen the vid for this and it's great! The song is pure 90's, which is why I never really liked it, because it sounded dated. But the video is pure 90's as well and I friggin love it! This is the second best Gwen video. Cool is good but too boring.

LOS ANGELES (Billboard) - With the debut of "Luxurious" on Billboard's Hot 100 singles chart, Gwen Stefani has culled five hit songs from her debut solo album "Love. Angel. Music. Baby."
After "What You Waiting For?" peaked at No. 47, the No Doubt frontwoman had three top 20 hits in a row: "Rich Girl" (No. 7), "Hollaback Girl" (No. 1 for four weeks) and "Cool" (No. 13). "Luxury" opened at No. 80.
The last artist to have five Hot 100 entries from one album was Usher. His "Confessions" set spawned four No. 1 hits ("Yeah!," "Burn," "Confessions Part II" and "My Boo") and one other top 10 hit ("Caught Up").

I wish downloading was added in for WYWF....it started like right after.

Omg I love the last line of that Billboard review!
I didn't even notice that Gwen is the first artist since Usher to have 5 singles from one album chart! Sometimes I get caught up in it all and forget that this is a 5th single! The fact that this is getting so much attention as a 5th single is amazing!

Gwen looks hot as hell (as usual) in the video for this. I finally caught a glimpse of it the other day.

I love the video with the version with the random rapper rapping. Does anyone know if it's available anywhere?

Gwen's video are great and I'm happy this project has become so successful after a shaky start.

The video version was definitely better than the album version.

What's really a shame is that every single on this album was bigger than "What You Waiting For." I'm actually surprised that this is doing so well, despite not liking this that much earlier, it has grown on me quite a bit. I think it is a perfect Fall song though, it's got a cool vibe to it.

The video version was definitely better than the album version. I'm gonna have to disagree. I hate it when singers mess up a good song to add an unnecessary rap verse and this is no different. I especially don't like it when the rapper is a nobody. Slim Thug?... who the hell is he?

I prefer the album version too, Slim Thug rap is boring.

The fact that this is getting so much attention as a 5th single is amazing! I think that they just released the wrong single first from the album. I don't think What You Waiting For? was the best lead single for Gwen. But the feat is amazing, although she hasn't really gained longevity. 5 singles is about a year's time? That's a lot of Gwen!

I don't think Gwen should jump on the bandwagon rappers that every other pop artist has used...

Remember Gwen didn't need the help of a re-release to do it. Usher would have 5 singles from one album with or without the rerelease. But still a great feat for her.
