Write-Up: I don't really hear it but I guess this is supposed to be Reggae Rock... perhaps the background is more Reggae than the rest of the song? I dunno. It isn't perfectly clear to me and a bit of distance from obvious Reggae imo. Anyway, another Bruno Mars sighting here and the 4th original song of his to drop. I couldn't avoid hearing this a s*** ton in 2012 but I'm not so sure I'd hold it up as anything super fantastic. It's got an ok beat but I feel like it's really shallow lyrically. Or maybe the message of the song is just uninteresting to me I suppose but I'm not a very big fan of this one either way. I think the first time I heard this song was on one of the Now cd's if I recall correctly. It would eventually be nominated for over 20 awards but I think the only one that it won was a "Most Performed Song of the Year" award which let's be honest... isn't really a significant achievement to boast about since almost any band could attain it imo. The song was selected as the lead single for the album (Bruno's 2nd solo album btw) and apparently the decision was met with skepticism by everyone except Bruno. He wanted it to be the promotional song for his album so he obviously got his way and even though it was a risky move, it turned out just ok. Wtf! lol. Gamefaqs literally just refused to allow me to post this with the link to the song I had (which is the official video to the song) because it had the consecutive letters f, a, and g in the link. >_> F***ing stupid a** gamefaqs censorship when their name literally looks like it has the same 3 letter word in it. SMDH. ====================================
