Listening to this now, I just adore that part right after the intro where she sings/harmonizes with practically no beat 8-)

I'm still gutted that this wasn't the lead single off this project. Its really one of her best songs to date. An epic video on "run the world's" scale/budget was all it needed. The song is really her "sound" so to speak along with whole "Crazy in Love" "Deja Vu" sound.

Anyway I hope they don't half a$$ this and only send it to radio. I want video/performances and all.

100% agree, as much as I love RTW. This should have been the lead single.

Perhaps they are thinking about the underground club support this song may get. It is very important in the UK with certain dance songs. Whatever their reasoning, I'm happy they are trying something different with this.

We've had the 'no single announcement, song on itunes, different performance, video out, rises on some radio's but not supported= flop combo for a while now.

When I think about the Freemason Remix of "Work" by Kelly Rowland...the remix was much more successful than the original!

But EOT can be a smash with or without Remix!
It tastes better with music

I think it can too if she promotes it but remember Greenlight, it got to #12 (i think) down to the freemasons remix specifically.

Although Freemasons remixes were pure hotness, they killed B'day sales.

This really does need an epic video to become a hit, the Roseland performance just won't do.

This is so overrated. It's a good song, but I don't see this smashing at all. A moderate hit at most and that is with promotion.
