In all honesty, I thought it was JLO when I first heard it. it does kind of sound like jlo! but her voice aint that strong and this song would be really annoying listening to jlo trying to hit those high notes :o

I Like her input, but why won't come off of other people's songs and come back the game needs Female MC's right now. No other female MC is out so this would be a perfect time too come back out. Even so she hotter than all of them so it wouldn't matter!!

its definitely a DC Go-Go song. The video is hot, she has an exotic look, but definitely not a beyonce but a close third.

This song is nothing but noise. Rich Harrison showed promise, but the fact that he has two of the most shrill, annoying songs at radio right now certainly doesn't help his rep in my book. And I agree with several posters on this board who think Amerie sounds awful. She shrieks through the whole song. "Crazy In Love" was lightning in a bottle, he needs to stop trying to re-create it. I'd take J.Lo's vocals any day over Amerie's in this song.

I cant believe this is #1 on my urban station. They normally dont put alot of r&b stuff in the #1 spot for very long. I think they are playnig one of the 100 remixes for it though LOL!

AMERIE 1 Thing Producer(s): Rich Harrison Writer(s): A. Rogers, R. Harrison, S. Walden Publisher(s): various Genre: POP Label/Catalog Number: Rise/Columbia CK 93667 (CD promo) Source: Billboard Magazine Originally Reviewed: April 02, 2005
Amerie has an R&B/hip-hop hit on her hands with the booty-bumping "1 Thing." And now it's racing up The Billboard Hot 100. Produced by the über hot Rich Harrison (Jennifer Lopez's "Get Right," Beyoncé Featuring Jay-Z's "Crazy in Love," Destiny's Child Featuring T.I. & Lil Wayne's "Soldier"), the song—culled from the "Hitch" soundtrack—is propelled by a sample from the Meters' "Oh, Calcutta." Except for the odd guitar chord, it's just Amerie and some funky drumming. Guess what? She has the time of her life riding the frenetic rhythm. The artist's second album, "Touch," arrives April 26.—MP

I can't believe I'm reading some of these things. Someone said they would take Jennifer Lopez's vocals over Amerie's. What is that? and that "1 Thing" is pure noise?! That's what I heard at first, but now I totally disagree. This song shines with talent in the production and in the flawless vocals. Even if people think this is a replica of "Crazy in Love" (which I don't think it is, because it lacks the signature horns) what's the problem with that? The point is, this song is a great jam, I don't understand what some of you guys are saying on here... ???
