At the risk of being flamed for Halien treason, I've gotta admit I'm not a fan of Oh My! It's just not my taste in music. The heavy production, the repetitive, overpowering, theatrical noise from the horns, the odd selection of early Motown combined with orgasmic screaming, yodeling and forced rapping...honestly, I found it more hot mess than hot new single, and really just was glad when it was over.
I think if she had made this into a torchy, bluesy number with Cajun influence it would have delivered that "sticky, swampy" feel more effectively while better emphasizing her hot, sexy lyrics and vocals. That said, I do want her to succeed, so I hope she gets the commercial success everyone seems to think it will have.
OK...preparing for my execution now. Will it be guillotine. stoning, hanging, firing squad, electric chair, lethal injection...???
Well you can bet, I will be selling tickets to the hanging an autographed posters of the cyanide hole of myself. I'm just not digging the song at all,but if B.oB. Can help push Haley farther I'm okay with that.
BUt I still love the Hales
