RE: Haley's New Songs - Jastal - 04-27-2015
Of the new songs, my top two favorites are My Cake and Listen. I liked the newest songs, Lover Girl and Good or Bad, but like dswim2 would like to hear the studio version before before I can judge if EP worthy. (As I have stated before, I never connected with "Better" but may react differently to a Studio version.)
I know that whatever songs are selected I will love the EP. By biggest hope is that the first song selected for Radio play will be "that" song to make people listen and want more. I loved "Free" after listening three times but if I had never heard of Haley, it's unlikely I would have heard it three times. (From "Listen Up", I thought either "OH My" and "Undone" may have been those songs even though "Follow Me" and "Spiderweb" are my favorites.)
The recent exposure of her 3 popular PMJ songs should help her EP profile but it's hard to tell how much it will be an influence. So even if the EP doesn't produce the first big hit, I will be happy if it moves her career forward one more step and ideally gets her out on the road singing her songs instead of covers.

At the very end of the song, it sounds like she changes the chorus to:
"wrap yourself around my body let go"
You should include the lyrics in the description of your video!
Just added them! Now, next I'll try to write out the lyrics to "Lover Girl"
Guess I'll talk about it as well. I didn't like it as much as Good or Bad at first but I've listened to it a lot more and I also like it a lot. She made it sound like it may or may not make the EP though, so it might not be set in stone.

Haley said if a lot of people ask for it, she might release "Listen". Someone should mention people want the song next time they see her.

I definitely agree. I think she needs a single that is catchy and will grab people's attention. Considering she got to start her career with an LP, and basically was downgraded (hate to say it, but it's true) to an EP, I believe it's a crucial time in her career to really need a song that's going to do VERY well. It's a scary thought, what happens next if the EP doesn't do well? Like you said, "Free" was not a good single to help drawn in a bunch of new fans...I really wish it was "Oh My!" or "Undone", or even "Hit the ground running", I think those all would have been a better single than the slower paced "Free."
RE: Haley's New Songs - dswim2 - 04-27-2015
One of those songs or "Keep Coming Back" would have been great! But because they wanted more money they chose "Free" instead...It is a good song, but I'm not sure it worked for a single.

Yeah, I'm sure if Haley had it her way, the first single would have been something else. But, it is what it is now!
So, I'm trying to write out the lyrics for lover girl, this one is much harder than Good or Bad.
After one listen, this is what I have so far. Help me out Haliens!
Quote:Haley Reinhart Lyrics - Lover Girl
*Whistle*
Well you’re making me itch, ____? I always scratch my way down
Well I’m liking your twitch, I can sense it
You want me now
Say you’re deep in the fire, ____? there’s a crowd in-between us
I’d rather it be you and me
As I make my way through, I know just as well as you
Who I came to see, who I came to see
Said I know what I know, and what I want is you
Drawing me in just like an ocean to the shore
Yeah there's plenty in the sea, ain’t got nothing on me
I’m your lover girl
Don’t need to feel no shame, once you realize we’re in the same game
They call it lust, but I say it’s a must for our sanity
Said I know what I know, and what I want is you
Drawing me in just like an ocean to the shore
There’s a time and a place, for a man like you
You breathe me in, just like lovers do
Yeah there's plenty in the sea, ain’t got nothing on me
I’m your lover girl
Said I know what I know, and what I want is you
Drawing me in just like an ocean to the shore
There’s a time and a place, for a man like you
Breathing me in, just like lovers do
Yeah there's plenty in the sea, ain’t got nothing on me
I’m your lover girl
Yeah there's plenty in the sea, ain’t got nothing on me
I’m your lover girl
Said there's plenty in the sea, ain’t got nothing on me
I’m your lover girl
