i'm never able to make out what she's saying anymore,
it's all just a blur of 'oooh's and 'aaaah's etc etc.

either she's whispering or she's delivering lyrics in
at bullet train speed in that low talking register.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

I will judge when I see the final product , Its unfair to judge the video based on a small preview, regarding the song, IT SUCKS.

well, glad to see she's sporting more then 1 outfit cause that space age football jersey just isn't working it for me.

i also think she needs to get rid of her current entourage...they just aren't inspiring an interesting look or image for her. it's interesting, i see the same problem with bjork..it's like their maternal instinct kicks in and they get comfortable with their existing enviroment which results in an air of creative staleness...with that being said, the song still rocks.

Is it me, or is the dancer in the far left corner TOTALLY OFF? She/He is not in sync with the other dancers. I hope the finished product is better.

It's you. I didn't see anyone off, per se. But it wasn't a really great view of the whole thing either, and purposely so, of course. I love the song.

I don't think the song is all that though sometimes it get stuck in my head. It however screams mad choreography, and I hope to see that in the final product.

I thought I saw someone lagging behind for a millisecond but then got back in sync but since they all look like they’re having hot fits it didn’t stand out very much.

Well in fairness, it's just a track thrown on a GH compilation. I'm more anxious for the album next spring.

Definitely sounds like the Time. I take it this is a Jam/Lewis project?

Sounds nothing like The Time. I believe Rodney Jerkins did that track w/ her, and is working on the more upbeat stuff for the album. I thought I had heard that Jam/Lewis were working on the slower songs w/ her. I hope not. They do well on upbeat tracks w/ her more.

I hope there are some classic Jam & Lewis ballads. It's one of the things I love most about her older work - that signature sound.

No, around the 1minute mark, the girl who is to the far left in the back is slightly off and leans down a bit too far (compared to the other dancers).

sounds like old school Prince more than The Time. It made me think of Controversy a little bit with the intro.

Kick drum on the one, jangly rhythm guitar, bouncy retro synth line throughout and the faux triangle all sound pretty Time-y to me. shrug Gives me "Jerk Out."

Just sayin'.
