Der Song ist ganz nett produziert, das Mädel singt ganz passabel; mich nervt, dass der Refrain nur mit nervigen Rufen statt mit einer netten Melodie ausgestattet ist; mich überzeugt's nicht.

mich schon

Erste Single und gleich # 1 in GB im Sommer 1998, später war sie auch unter dem Namen Billie Piper erfolgreich.

Girliehymne ...

Why d'you always have to dance all night
Because we want to! Because we want to
Why d'you always say what's on your mind
Because we want to! Because we want to

So shake it, move it, use the groove
Go with the flow and take off with the show
******
Ja, Billie war eine absolute Teenie-Sensation in England. Aber ich befürchte auch nur dort. Und ihr Ruhm erlosch nach zwei Alben auch relativ schnell. Eine sehr gut gemacht Studio-Produktion. Erinnert mich mit dem Cheerleader-Refrain etwas an "Mickey" von Toni Basil. Ich liebe das zuckersüße Pop-Liedchen! :)

Übrigens: Mit 15 Jahren war Billie auch die jüngste Sängerin, die jemals von 0 auf 1 in UK schoss.

Gefällt mir gar nicht. Ist mir zu langweilig im Beat. Und die Stimme: na ja...
****
In Ordnung

Mein Gott! Da wird mir übel.

...ein schöner song...

fand ich damals noch ganz nett...diesen Schulmädchen-Pop aus UK von 1998...
****
Cool track.

Catchy and successful debut by Billie Pipper. UK#1 and Ireland#9.

Good track.
