After a number of up-tempo outings, Pop pin-ups JLS slow it down on their new single ‘Take A Chance On Me’. The track, which premiered in full moments ago, is the 3rd to be lifted from their third studio album ‘Jukebox’ (due November).
Take a listen below…
Sigh. Yet another track dripping cheese and grease.
Still, can’t say we expected much else. With three albums in as many years, ‘evolution’ was hardly the MO here. A fact which, when considered, somewhat takes the sting out of the whole shabang.
And with the single hitting the marketing place during the Holiday season, it’s well-equipped with enough syrupy drivel to ensure it hits it big this side of the pond. Mission accomplished?
Randomness: UK’ers, With no discernible parts, poor JB really is becoming a bit of a Su-Elise isn’t he?

I really don’t care about them.I’ve heard some of their tracks and they started as a promising bubblegum/urban pop band, but now it’s just cheesy radio music tbh.I’m not even going to listen to this song tbh.It’s just amazing how they will have released 6 albums by the end of the year, yet they have no musical identity (let alone legacy
).

Cornyish lyrics but that goes for many a song in pop world now.
I like some of the vocal styling on this song cus it’s that POP sound BUT for a BLACK group I expect more soulful elements which they are not being allowed to use.
I will say they have improved the way they deliver pop songs now so just gonna have to used to it until they gain more creative control.
Pre-x-factor when they were called UFO they had a lot more Urban influence so I hope that comes back to them in future projects.
Im very happy they doing well personally but i’d also like to like more than just 2-3 of there songs.
Overall like the song and some of the vocal arrangements fit really well

It’s alright…sounds like Lighters. “This one’s for you and me” sounds like “Baby take a chance on me”.

Why do people always think that when you sing R&B or soul your music sounds better R&B,HipHop and soul music sounds like shit. I like the fact that they sing Pop music and look sexy instead of singing horrible R&B mass and looking like there from the hood! love JLS hope there music becomes more dance so they can be more international !

You know what I take back what I said about R&B,Soul and HipHop but its just people always want black people to sing those types of music or to be more deep so sorry for butting down something else to make myself feel better its ok to like what you like but I think its amazing that they sing Pop music and only pop music.lol

A paleo diet book takes that fact into consideration, with out ignoring
what we now understand about the way evolution works
namely, that rate matters. Like other winter vegetables,
fresh fruit, raw nuts and cut-up vegetables.
