Dave Sholin from the ''Gavin Report'' said, "She speaks for all those who've been jacked around by that special someone in their life. Her message really cuts through, thanks to a catchy hook woven into not only the chorus, but the entire track." James Masterton commented in his weekly UK chart commentary, "The latest is unlikely to progess m ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
