It's hardly surprising that Cheryl Cole is releasing a new single a few months before her Xfactor comeback. It's also unsurprising that said single is distinctly pop and has a very catchy chorus. The problem with this record is that it's not particularly memorable, nor is it pushing any musical boundaries. Sure, she's not known for being experimental and
Crazy Stupid Love is no exception. She's roped in Tinie Tempah for a pointless rap somewhere in the middle and she's shoved in an annoying sax section after every chorus. It's no
Call My Name, but it is produced by Wayne Wilkins who did the hard work on
Fight For This Love and
Promise This. It's a paint by numbers pop record, but even that fail safe doesn't save this single from being a flavourless disappointment.
2/5
