I really like their last album 'The E.N.D.' The first five or six songs are excellent....electropop jams that sizzle! This new song is mediocre confused hopefully,they got some better jams on the album.

Yet another track that Will.I.Am ripped off from other artists, and I am not talking about the Dirty Dancing song. One minute he's telling someone that he loves their sound, the next minute he's stealing that sound.

Barf.

Almost broke my neck bobbin my noggin. Sorry guys, but this is a club banger.

Really clever the way they fuse the one song with the dirty bit one. The electronic stuff is really killer. A skull fucker, to be sure.

If you are going to use voice modifiars, this is the way you do it. Yay.

Better song than Laydown.

All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

i used to like them, a long long time ago. the last album of theirs that was kind of ok

was the one that had "request line" with macy gray on it.

their later songs, especially of the last few years, all sound like remixes. might be ok

for clubs and all but if your album tracks sound like repetitive remixes i think there's

something wrong.

there are some ideas there but the song all sound like there might be something ok

at the origin of it all but then it had a remix treatment by some bad euro trance guy

who made it all completely generic and dull.

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

hmmm I can't decide whether I prefer homocidal-looking Taboo or this new Fiirst Nations Steven Tyler look.

The song? Eh. shrug It's catchy enough. But I won't be buying it.

It's putrid. I barely sustained listening to 40 seconds of it. But, you just know it's gonna be a global hit.

I liked some track from their last album, but this new song is terrible. Really terrible.

It's cheap, you can make this song in 5 minutes.

They seem to make good strip club jams...I cant see putting on their stuff in a causal way in the car or a listening session...maybe when cleaning house or something.

I agree.The last album had some amazing jams ("Rock That Body","Meet Me Halfway","I Got A Feeling") but this new track is lifeless.

will.i.am = the black version of BT.

THIS^ is exactly what I was think when I listen to the voice effects. BT was doing the same things within a decade earlier.

Sounds like a lazy remix of "i had the time of my life" as opposed to just merely sampling it. First he massively sampled "video killed the radio star", and now this! The verses are horrible. Much prefer the original. Yep I said it LOL.

I don't know what to think.... :3

I like the slow parts but then when it hits the techno whatever ish they put in that song, it literally hurts my ears. I don't know what that sound is but not good. I have to protect my poor ears cause it was so unexpected.

I just got the new cd and almost every track is a riff-off, i mean is it on purpose? is it paying homage too. To me its like invent your own shit at this point, Will seems to just be rehashing, rehashes of rehashes at this point.
