Like everybody I'm delighted Diana is back in the saddle and giving it a go. I'd give anything to be able to honestly say she's outdone herself.
The song itself, I share Circa's observations on it. It winds up sounding a bit preachy and there's just some element of "joy" that doesn't come through. It's supposed to be a dance /party record, no?? Played too safe? No 'spontaneous' giggles like on HANGOVER ... No vamping like on THE BOSS. Too controlled? Lacks warmth.
That's where the Kupper remix comes in , at least it gives it a bit more zip [& is her vocal sped up some?]
It is not unlistenable, it is not a disaster. It's more than OK . But its not grand.
imo.
OK your turn Ollie!
Added: Like afteryou I'm liking it more on repeated listens [the Kupper mix] That's always a good sign for a hit, as opposed to a song that gets old quickly.
One more: I love the way she says 'pahrty'.... should be in there more!
