Title: NICE SURPRISE! DIDN'T THINK THEY COULD PULL IT OFF...
Review: Well, I confess: I was so sure that the A-Teens were doomed to being just a one-hit wonder after their "Abba Generation" album. Their initial releases in Europe were under the name Abba-Teens, after all.Fortunately, I was wrong. This new single is fantastic. First, it's not an Abba remake; nothing wrong with that, but it's nice to hear some original material. Second, it doesn't sound like every other teen pop song out there, which means it doesn't have the same overused Britney/Christina/Backstreet/N'Sync drum machine beat to it. Third, the girls can now actually sing without heavy post-production. However, the boys can't...we hear more of them in this song than we did in the whole "Abba Generation" album, but their vocals benefit from some heavy-duty processing.The song is catchy with a good melody and a solid and very endearing chorus. Nice job, A-Teens! I hope the forthcoming album is as good.
Is the review positive or negative?
