I love her. I love how mysterious she is, how dark she is and how she doesn't seem to be a famewhore. A little bit of mystery goes a long way

You're kidding, right?
She's not mysterious; she's SIMPLE. And you don't become Def Jam's #1 pop tart by NOT being a fame whore. She's just not desperate enough yet to be doing stupid, attention whoring stunts. Give her a year or so.

I like Rihanna, but with all the hype that was created for the single I expected seomthing bigger. The song is OK. I still think that Ne-Yo's productions are very bland and repetitive.

Rihanna has a reputation for being very cocky and arrogant. Her bold style keeps her a float.

She sounds like Chris Brown in this track, but weaker. bored

Plus, this is the type of song meant for Beyonce's voice.

Yep. She's lucky to have a look that can model clothes well. Otherwise, if it was just about the music or even her personality, she wouldn't get anywhere near as much attention as she receives. All most people are looking forward to with this new album are the hairstyles and outfits she will be wearing onstage or on the street. disbelief

I can relate to the lyrics, it's dark and deep, probably one of ne yo's most creative works! I wanted to hate on her but can't! And she really does sing her ass off

I saw clips from the video, and she has that friggin eye patch, doesnt find that tacky, i mean we know why she has the eye patch, or at least what its symbolizing, but i mean, using that shit for commercial gain and people to take notice? But she is well calculated PLEASE dont for a second give her more credit than deserved, its CALCULATED there are meetings on these things, there is research on who will have albums come out at that time, who is their competition etc...theres no mystery in her or anyone around her, i mean im just shocked her song isnt called "punch in the face"

I think the song is daring and brave, sepcially as a first single. She's way more than just a fashionista in my eyes. I think her music is very high quality and she keeps evolving as an artist, which is extremely rare these days. The best thing about Rihanna is that she emotes well..she puts feeling behind her lyrics and that's what makes her music so catchy and appealing.

If I were you all I would give the song a 2nd chance. She's an artist imo.

I gotta disagree, though she has evolved, there still to me seems to be this "production" and lack of involvement from her, and thats not just on her, these artists really just get produced and you really could interchange them easily so i cant give cred to say Gwen Stefani when i can get the same thing from Ashley Tisdale or Brooke Hogan as far as sound,vocals,and music.

She does? Her vocals were cool in a song like "Rehab" for example, but all I hear in this new single is Auto Tune. And not the vocal-effect kind Lil Wayne and other rappers use, but the type to actually fix a voice, that people claim Britney Spears uses also. It doesn't even sound like the usual island-accented Rihanna at the beginning of this song.

I hate that synth guitar patch on the beginning ill

And it sounded like Melrose Place make-out music but the song appears to be about Rihanna having the courage to take her own life.

Take a breath
Take it deep
Calm Yourself
He says to me
If you play
You play for keeps
Take a gun
And count to 3

I’m sweating it out
Moving slow
No time to think
My turn to go

And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest
Said I’m terrified, but I’m not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger

Say a prayer
To yourself
He says close your eyes
Sometimes it helps
And then I get
A scary thought
That he’s here
Means he’s never lost

And you can see my heart beating
You can see it through my chest
Said I’m terrified, but I’m not leaving
I know that I must pass this test
So just pull the trigger

As my life flashes before my eyes
I’m wondering will I
Ever see another sun rise
So many won’t get the chance to say goodbye
But it’s too late to think of the value of my life
