Come On Over
JESSICA SIMPSON
Producer(s): John Shanks, Brett James
Label: Columbia Nashville
Pop princess and tabloid queen Jessica Simpson needed to hit a home run with her country debut if she wanted any shot of being accepted in a skeptical carpetbagger's world, which has recently been inundated by the Eagles, John Mellencamp, Darius Rucker, Bon Jovi and Jewel. How about this? Mission accomplished and then some. Sexy, flirtatious "Come On Over" is everything it needs to be—undeniably country and not forced. Under watchful maestro John Shanks and Brett James, Simpson shines on a steel guitar-laden track that finds her pleading with a beau to drop everything for a little loving. Is it the most thought-provoking tune in recent years? No, but Simpson is convincingly ready to play in the country arena. Come on over, indeed.
I don't think it will be a 'certified' flop... I mean, considering everything, I think it will do better than most of her Pop singles. The song still sucks though.
The fact that 'Bossy' is a huge flop doesn't mean 'Come On Over' is good or will be a big hit.
