Title: The Veronicas new song "Hook Me Up"
Post by: ITS ALIVE on September 07, 2007, 11:59:04 AM
Another poor showing from an artist who decided they didn't need Max Martin and his crew writing their songs. Makes me realise just how talented Max really is. If you haven't had the misfortune of hearing it yet, click on the link below at your own peril.

Exactly. I see another Kelly Clarkson-esque flop coming.

I hope the Andreas Carlsson song will be on the album at least!

A completely new sound for the Veronicas, it's not bad, but still not great either.

I disagree here! I really like this song. I was all ready to completely forget about them and was positive I'd hate their new song but I really like it and find myself wanting to listen to it more.

I have listened to this song some more and I don't hate it as much as I did initially. The chorus is what kills it. Doesn't build to anything.

true, the chorus is a little weak. I love the verse.
Based on this song I'll buy their album

The album credits are now out and sadly no song on it.  :'(

But who knows, maybe we get a B-Side.

It really is an excellent album -- "Hook Me Up", although I do like it, isn't even the best song on there. There are also two totally great Billy Steinberg/Josh Alexander songs on album   (guys who did "When It All Falls Apart' from their first CD).

I'd have to say this album is better than previous release because it has longevity,their first album of course it has amazing Max's songs but the rest of it were not so special and gets boring after some times...My fav is Take Me On the Floor,the 4th single in Australia and it's nice to see them hitting the billboard charts ;D

Really?? That's just the opposite for me, I love all the songs on the first album and I hardly ever play the last one, not my style of songs. :S

High-Five me Sabine...

There new album is just horrible, I just didn't like their new style.

On a side note, I guess they are very talented and have great voices

Yes, their voices fit so well together, I think they are perfect and sound so great live!
