xxxxtremely silly idea to rush back for the arse end of 2006, what can she hope to achieve? everyone's quite happy to wait. it just looks like she's desperate to head off fergie, who in fact should release 'glamorous' (which was once gwen's 'luxurious' rmx)(superhackneyed factoid, holla) the minute the gwen drops just to rub it in.

also a live version of 'wind it up' was already on the internets when l.a.m.b. was out and proud. i fear this new album will end up being offcuts and rushjobs :(

terrible tune anyway. perhaps she owed andrew lloyd webber a favour.

wtf!
was Jewel not available?

I hate it and I want to dance to it.
Why is her stuff so ridiculous? It's better (worse) than London Bridge.
I like the delivery at "keep going girl it's your night" probably because it sounds like Lady Sov or MIA, one of those.

I was kinda hoping for new No Doubt, but I guess that's not going to happen.

i came around the corner and saw the massive poster artwork for the album and i just thought 'that thing is dead in the water already'. the front cover picture is awful and she looks like jimmy saville, while the release date (december 4th) just *screams* that the record company don't like it. december 4th!!

now then, now then : http://www.amazon.com/Sweet-Escape-Gwen-Stefani/dp/B000JJRIN4

it wont qualify for this year's 'best of 2006' threads ;_;

People only buy Best Of albums and stuff by fullblown marquee players (Westlife, etc) at Xmas

dommy p is alright WHICH IS A LOT MORE THAN I CAN SAY ABOUT A LOT OF PEOPLE (Dom, Thursday, 23 November 2006 14:44 (seventeen years ago) link

but her last album came out only two weeks before that!

she is a marquee name now.

Baby Don't Lie has Ryan Tedder's stink all over it. v disappointing.

agreed it's pretty bad :(

dyl, Monday, 20 October 2014 14:41 (nine years ago) link

i think it's decent -- sounds like a bangerz left over though

generally just feels very of the moment & generic, maybe that was to be expected though given how long she's been away

this holds up so well (loveangelmusicbaby), classic status for me. cool, rich girl, hollaback girl, luxurious- ridiculously good. harajuku girls, the real thing, bubble pop, what you waiting for, crash- also great. Cool is pretty much perfect.
listening to a lot of charlie xcx at the same time and gwen's vocals are like this fantastic mellow version of charlies, only gwen has immensely better production behind her here.

two years pass...

I used to think she was so cool, now she creeps me out. And her taste in men is like one notch superior to that of Serena Williams

three years pass...

The title / cover art of this new single are kinda pathetic-feeling (the song suxx, too):
