New Song: Ne-Yo – ‘Champagne Life’

Published: Saturday 5th Jun 2010 by Sam

As singer-songwriter Ne-Yo continues to ready his new LP ‘Libra Scale’, a new track from the record has surfaced in the form of ‘Champagne Life’. Take a listen below…

Though the track boasts a musically maturer sound from Ne-Yo, it’s a bit of a snoozer.

I’m actually beginning to worry about ‘Libra Scale’; the first single ‘Beautiful Nightmare’ is atrocious, and the material heard since isn’t far removed. Here’s hoping the album delivers, as Ne-Yo is quite consistent on the LP front.

Hit or Miss?

    Whats going on with Ne-Yo? He usually slays me everytime! Didn’t like “Beautiful Monster” and I damn sure don’t like this *sigh*….maybe next song, who knows….

    Sounds Typical. Its Generally just O.K (like most of his music). Too much talking at the beginning for me. Kinda Lame really but i like the Beat. Neyo’s newer material sounds 2nd Rate to me. Hate to say I but He needs to be a little more selfish with his music, He’s giving all the good stuff to Rihanna dem & not saving anything for himself. & Why does his newer material remind me of Pharrel??

    SOUNDS LIKE NE-YO IS SINGING ALL THE TRACKS HE WAS GOING TO GIVE TO MICHAEL JACKSON. PLEASE STOP! YOU CAN’T PULL IT OFF. NOW GIVE ME MISS INDEPENDENT, BECAUSE OF YOU, MAD, SO SICK ECT. NOT THIS MESS!

    Sounds like a Mary J. Blige album filler !! ( I LOVE MJB DON’T GET ME WRONG ) ! i love ne-yo but … uhhhh

  5. bbbbb June 5, 2010

    @0beloved ur right! sounds like he’s trying to pull of a michael jackson!! he’s no where near being michael!

  6. BENJAMIN June 5, 2010

    Sounds better than “Beautiful Monster,” but he is kinda losing me here.

    So true, with Ne-yo trying to sing like MJ! I’ve noticed this for a while actually and when he doesn’t go this route he delivers lame dance tracks. It doesn’t sound good on him. He needs to listen to his first album and draw some inspiration from that. He was good at one time, now he’s stuck in a rut.

    It’s definitely better than Beautiful Nightmare. It’s good but I wouldn’t make me interested in hearing the rest of the album.

  15. BEYONCE VS. WORLD June 5, 2010

  16. d June 6, 2010

    I Like it everyone thats out there is just f***** hating lets see if any of the haters can do any better i think NE-YO has a bright future in the music business so haters keep on hating

  17. stopcallingpeoplehaters June 6, 2010

    All because people are voicing their opinions you wanna call them haters? I don’t understand that I thought it was a free country. please stop calling people names cause you don’t like their opinion about this song

  18. annon June 6, 2010

    neyos songs were never good according to my opinions, but i found myself quite liking beautiful monster…but this song…urm…just sucks…i think it is a demo for michael jackson or something..

  19. Untonio June 6, 2010

    Ne-Yo come on what the hell happen to “So Sick”, All Because of You, the Miss Independent .

  20. O-D June 10, 2010

    See. The problem is… Once people get used to hearing dumbed down music, they just don’t recognize good music when it’s being played. A good song is a good song. Period. So, if it sounds like something that Michael Jackson might have done, well… need I say anymore? No. But I will… If you like Neo’s voice, he sounds just like “himself” on this track. So ummm, I don’t get the criticism.

    This is what is referred to as a “feel good” song or “feel good” music. It wasn’t really meant for the club. It’s for when you are feeling really good, and riding in your car on a bright sunny day, with the top down.

    And no, I don’t work for Ne-Yo, or his label, or his management. I just know good music when I hear it. Let’s wait and see!!! – Bringing it Back!

    I want to give Ne-Yo mad props for this song . The vibe and beat to this song is so s*** to me I could really feel it. When I first heard it on the radio I had to find out who this was and now I know. Do You Ne-Yo !!!! I’m feeling ya!

  22. Shadé September 21, 2010

    Ohh my days he copies michael jackson TOOOO much!

  23. Albert December 7, 2010

    GREAT song, people don’t know good music when they hear it. They rather have more generic sounding crap. This song sounds different from what’s on the radio. And he doesn’t sound that much like MJ on this track. He sounds like MJ a lot more on “What Have I Done” which is an amazing song regardless. If you liked MJ why wouldn’t you like a track that sounds like MJ? It makes NO sense at all.
