This review sums up exactly how I feel: it's cute, it's catchy, she sounds great, but it doesn't live up to her best past work and overall it's all a little underwhelming: http://www.nme.com/reviews/rihanna/12332

I'd rather he exert his dominance behind the scenes than attempt to ride on the coattails of whatever it-girl he's working with and achieve his own degree of fame/notoriety. He's famous/notable within the industry, and that's good enough for him. I appreciate that.
That's true. Most successful people are ass holes anyway.
OK, this song just absolutely ****ing *****. I'm just now hearing it since my ass slept in. I can't get over the beat. I'm absolutely slayed. This bitch keeps reminding me of why I love her so much.
Can we at least hope for a half of the success that BTW had?
This will do better than BTW long term. But people on here keep complaining about ever little thing. You cant expect so much in so little time , especially when Cheers is taking up space on radio. BTW had no other gaga song to compete with. Enjoy the success its having thus far which is already huge in itself.
I really like the song. The only issue I have with it is that I feel like the instrumental is the star of the song, and I've never heard a song with Rihanna in it before In which she isn't the star.
Imma be critical, i like the song, the production is massive! but her voice, it feels like it doesn't suit the beat, especially on the slower parts, she's singing too high IMO, but its cool tho, gonna be an overrated single if it smashes..

I will. I was just a little bit disappointed by the song. I mean I already like it a lot but I want to adore it!
