This is one of the best songs he's done. So much better than "Her Diamonds."
Yeah, I love this song. They are using it in "The Blind Side" trailer as well. I hope it becomes a big hit.

This is "99 Problems"-level good. Kudos to Hype Williams on this one.

Not great and not horrible. Just squarely in the middle.

This is nothing like what I thought it would be. Without the Imogen Heap (!) sample, the song wouldn't be worth much. Hopefully this song will get people to seek out the far superior "Hide & Seek" instead.

The song's average, but the video's striking, and it's nice to see her looking like her old self again.

This video is a strong one. Go Kris! Love the giant clock in the background. The song's good and about what I expected from him. It's a nice vocal and the message is sound. But Adam Lambert has him beat with "For Your Entertainment" though. He'll have to bring it for the video.

Yay for kiss-off clips! That creep deserved it. The video's simple yet effective. Nice vocal from Miranda Lambert.

"Chasing Pirates" is a sly and unassuming song, but by the end, the full effect of it sneaks up on you, and Norah Jones' vocals are as potent as ever. The video's interesting and creative (nice homage to "Up" there), and this new look of hers is stunning. I don't think I've ever seen her look this good before. This song might get her back into Female Pop Vocal Performance next year. Nice job, Norah.

Ahahaha! Lambert is freakin awesome. Solid single, but she has way stronger tracks on her album ("Me & Your Cigarettes" sounds like a #1 record to me).

I was actually getting a Crimson Permanent Assurence vibe, lol.
But yeah, it's a cool video, and first time ever I listen to a Norah Jones song and feel like sleeping, lol! Liked the song, this new direction wasn't really radical, but it's still pretty interesting.

There are no words. I've never seen anything like this before. All hail Lady GaGa.

The song's somewhat lesser than what they're capable of, but it's for the "New Moon" soundtrack, so it's not that big of a deal, and they had to mainstream their sound a bit for that. The video is mainly a clip show of the new film. Ben Gibbard's lost some weight it seems. Good for him.

The song's great, but the video is too dark and weird for its own good. I get that that's where she's at right now, and it at least complements the song. But the video's not doing it for me. That's the new guy from "Grey's Anatomy" in the interrogation room as what I'm guessing is the love interest.

Absolutely. It's dark and bold. I love it. Bravo to Rihanna.

The song's excellent, but the video is another dud. SIGH.
