Show all languages | ***** Catchy pop! The right person won X-Factor. Infinitely better winners single than Good Night! |
| ***** It's quite generic but it's killer and she deserved to win X-Factor this year. |
| **** Okay, but it is generic though. 3.5*.
Would much prefer a different sounding original track to make #1 this week (AKA "Thrift Shop"), but with the publicity this has already received and is still yet to receive, there is no chance that it will happen :(
EDIT: Fairly good, despite it being another generic pop track. 3.5* -> 4*. Last edited: 02/12/2012 06:55 |
| *** It may be better than Good Night, but it's painfully generic and boring. I understand she may be a great talent, but songs like this completely detract from her full potential.
EDIT: It's not as bad as I thought, and I agree that this really is amazing for a song produced by DNA Songs :P Last edited: 31/01/2013 10:56 |
| ***** Very solid pop track. Deserving winner, and very happy she won! |
| **** Good song. |
| * Another incredibly lame generic pointless pop song. I've never watched x-factor and this is why. |
| **** No I can't really hate on this. For DNA Songs' standard, it's quite amazing. My main problem is a very nitpicky one (you have been warned!), but I think the chorus would be better if the melody was rearranged on the 2nd line of the chorus (the "I'm a heartbeat on the run" etc line). The impact should rise instead of drop at the end of the measure. Again, very nitpicky but that's all I think every time I hear it, and it always makes it fall flat for me unfortunately. Apart from that, it's well structured and the bridge leads well into the final chorus. 3.5 |
| **** I can like this. I don't have a problem with her voice and the song is only mildly generic and mostly very catchy and enjoyable, and she's not a harpy on the run. |
| **** Der Siegersong der Siegerin von X-Factor Australia 2012. Nun, ich glaube, mit ihrer Stimme kann man viel mehr machen, sehr einfach geratene Popnummer. Knappe 4* |
| *** Das ist alles, was "X Factor" in Australien zu bieten hat? Eher dünnes Durchschnittsstimmchen, das einen eher dünnen Plastikpop-Titel runternudelt. Das alles ist zwar sehr eingängig, aber aus künstlerischer Sicht kaum substanziell.
Solide bis gute 3. |
| *** I particular find the way she sings the title annoying, but aside from that it's a typically unremarkable talent show #1. |
| **** I think this is gonna cop a lot of flack since it's the X Factor winner's single, which are never going to be that good, because who's going to give a fantastic song to someone if there's only a 1 in 3 chance of it ever being released? This isn't half-bad though, it's catchy and unlike 'Good Night' it's pleasant enough - and it's really not that generic compared to most of the shite that comes out today. Really, I think it's quite good. |
| *** Immer noch besser, dass sie die aktuelle australische The X-Factor-Staffel gewonnen hat und nicht The Collective, nicht gross in Erinnerung bleibender Dance-Pop-Titel, 3*… |
| **** Everytime i hear this I just think it;s a Jessica Mauboy demo. Imagine Ms Mauboy belting this out.... anyway Sammy's vocals are good and it's listenable. Deserves the success. |
| **** Sounds kinda like a Robyn song. I like it but the chorus could have been better. The 'that's what you've what you've done to me' sounds very disjointed. Last edited: 10/02/2014 20:50 |
| **** Lucky to get a 3* This is quite bland except for some good parts within the melody.
EDIT: Constant radio airplays has actually worked for me. 4* Last edited: 24/02/2013 05:31 |
| **** I don't watch the X Factor, but this song is actually pretty good in my opinion. |
| ***** Keeps its 5 star score for the nostalgia. It's a good pop song, not exceptional, that sounds like it was pinched from some Swedish pop producer. Which is a compliment given that it's a DNA production. It's catchy, her voice is good and it's a nice listen. Goes without saying that it's easily the best X Factor winner's single.

| **** This is a very solid offering especially from the DNA stable of hit makers. Samantha Jade however still has to sell it to me because all I see her is as a rehash of Kylie Minogue. Time will tell if she can eclipse this offering or fade into the abyss of dismal pop stars. For the record this isn't a #1 deserving record but what is these days? |
| ***** Très entraînant, j'aime beaucoup le refrain. |
| ***** I'm only getting into it now for some reason and I love it! Awesome song, deserving #1. 5.5* |
| *** It's not bad for a winners single, but nothing to write home about. |
| ***** Unsuprisingly, better than any of Reece Mastin's songs. This is one catchy song. |
| ****** Gut gelaunter Dancepoptrack, der mir eine aufgerundete 4-5 wert ist. Last edited: 17/12/2013 22:15 |
| ***** :O wiso habe ich das bisher nicht bewertet?! Naja super Song, der aber nicht mit ihrem neueren Werk "Firestarter" mithalten kann... |
| *** Generic pop winners single. Because I don't hear it anymore it gets a 3 but if I was reviewing it in late 2012/early 2013 it would get a 2. |
| ** Tolerable, I must say. |
