Taken from the album, "Pulse".

You know, I literally have to force myself to watch and listen to these songs hoping it would grow on me before I get bored to death, but it never does. Is it me or does just everything suck nowadays. It all sounds the same... I can´t even tell if it´s a Rihanna song, voice or what.

And why the hell is everyone wearing those ridiculous "edgy" hairstyles?

Dag, are you saying you can't tell the difference between Rihanna and Toni?

JackieBlue said:

Well, if I didn´t know it was her and heard just a portion on a radio, I might easily think it was Rihanna. Yeah, I can tell the difference, Toni has her way of singing, but no song really stands out for me nowadays, so in the end, it´s just a bunch of the same songs.

dag said:

Okay, I thought you meant vocally. I understand what you mean about the music although I don't think this one is too bad.

JackieBlue said:

I just sometimes feel unable to get excited about anything new, musically. I used to be sooooo excited as a teenager and now...

dag said:

Im with you, you would think that even the artist would want to try to sound different or exciting. I think the big problem is that there are no real
muscians involved that much anymore in song writing. Just kids with a computer.

Yeah, when you remember just back of the 90´s and 80´s, you´ve had people like MJ, Prince, Pink Floyd, Depeche Mode, Nirvana, Bjork, Bowie, Collins, Annie Lenox, Enigma whatever, they all had such distinguished styles and you could always tell who it was just by their music or way of singing. Everyone had their style. Even when you look at the ladies separately: Tina Turner, Cher, Janet, Bjork, Annie Lenox, Madonna and I don´t know who else. Now it´s all half naked chicks with the same hair-do, singing stupid r´n´b dull songs.

Ha! Those days are long gone, appearing every once in a blue moon. A lot of it is the music, but I've also changed as a music lover. I don't fret over it anymore. There are still small treasures here and there but they won't have the large impact that they had when I was young. It's even more personal now.

Hopefully the song will be titled "Mouth Gagged".

She has a lovely voice and can sing better material than this crap.

Damn,her album isn't even out yet and she's already released two or three singles/videos?

Soooo basically this is Toni's video of selling haute couture?

not really feeling this one. sounds like album filler. even all those familiar faced actors can't save this one. or maybe that's why they were cast in it. i love Toni Braxton, but seems like she's trying way too hard on this one and sometimes not hard enough. i loved her other track posted yesterday. that dance-y one. i can't remember the name...guess that's not a good sign.

Meh. It's o.k. She does look good though.

The men in the video are HOT. But the video's not very original.
