This is generic as hell, but I'll take it. I like "I'm Coming After You" a lot, on first listen.

Other honorable mentions include "Gold" and "Speed of Love".

It does sound generic indeed judging by the snippets only but I like his music, it puts me in a good mood most of the time like Good Time.
Sooo...I think i'll buy it because it sounds catchy but he will flop anyway. :oops: :lol:

I'm Coming After You is a total rapist anthem, the lyrics are creepy/a mess. Cute production tho :lol:

#24 in the UK midweeks. Looks like it's going to outpeak "All Things Bright and Beautiful" which made #52 but not "Ocean Eyes", which peaked at #7.

OMGYES! Loving this album though. There are so many good songs on it, I'd actually say that Good Time is one of the weakest in comparison to the other tracks.
