Yes many songs will be from Babyface!
This song is the one they sing at football games, weird you didn't point it out Alex, since you're an apassionate!   :P

Let's hope people buy it off iTunes in America instead of Lady GaGa, PCD, Beyonce and Rihanna, they need to refresh their music industry!

I don't think the song was influenced by Bananarama. The original song was by a band called Steam in the 1960s. Goodbye is produced by The Underdogs, not Babyface actually.

Thanks for clearing that up. Goodness, I've never even heard of Steam!

Oh my God,they're terrible. Bananarama are better without doubt :D

Thanks, that's great, the song is still really good, but they just don't look as good as Bananarama!

Nice song. It isn't so Gaga-ish IMO :)
But recently It seems that every popstar in US are tryin' to do this style since Rihanna. It's boring. :-\

Yes, and that's why Britney is really apart!  ;D At least she has her style!
Title: Re: Kristinia DeBarge - Goodbye
Post by: Mikkel Wong on May 08, 2009, 03:43:20 PM
You're right Sabine!! Britney brings in a trend, but she has never missed her style.
Every song she releases has always her own style. That's why she's apart!! :D

The song is up to # 30 on the official US chart :)

I heard it on Swedish radio the other day too, which suggests it's going to be released internationally, although the Swedes are always ahead with picking up new pop acts (they had Lady GaGa in their charts long before the UK) so it could be a while before the rest of Europe and other continents catch on.

The UK had Lady Gaga the last one, also in so many cases Germany gets such new comers first, i.e. JOJO and Stacie Orrico both have released in Germany first!

Yes Germany and the Netherlands usually have new acts first, that's especially true for dance music.Sweden is also always ahead.
