It's one of my favourites of the album, it's not as catchy as Get Lucky, but it's very funky! Hope they have some remixes with it.

I love it! I think the arrangement of the album version is a bit messy, but it sure is a funky song and I like Pharrel's vocals on this one...
RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...

the first single "Get Lucky" has been in the Top 10 for awhile now...lol...they couldn't release a second single until the first one died down a little.

similiarly,Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" single has been Number One for nine weeks,which is probably why his second single hasn't been released yet.

I agree.I think the newly released 'radio edit' is better than the album version....

Your Chic albums should never have been buried in the first place! razz

Love the song, by the way, but not as catchy as "Get Lucky", so I don't think it will do as well.

Just like the white winged dove...

Pharrell is having quite a year,isn't he? He's already been featured on/involved with two of the biggest hits of the year ("Get Lucky" and "Blurred Lines") and now he's on another sure-to-be-smash hit.When he finally drops his next solo album,it's gonna be huge.

It's well done, but needs to be tighter and is missing that mmmph with more instruments or buildup of some sort. Having said that, I do like niles guitar on it and daft punks come on, come on parts

I wish it was a little faster, like "My Forbidden Lover" fast.

I'm damn nearly would call it career comeback of 2013.

I'm used to it now, but I definitely thought it should be faster the first time I heard it.

I just saw "Despicable Me 2" and the credits have him as doing the score, and I thought ^^ plus this movie (which, among the kid crowd, was the most anticipated of the summer) -- this guy is rolling in the money!

It's a great song, like all the tunes on the album. It's my favourite album of the year, though I have hopes that Janelle Monáe's could be even better.

It's up there for me, but the Moroder track is the "Revolution 9" for a new generation. I'm all for spotlighting a legend, but whose idea was it to take what should've been a good interlude and make it the neverending story?!? And then put in one of the prime positions on the album?!? That will never make sense to me.
