[I really like most of the song, but the outro keeps repeating one line endlessly as the song slowly dies. Its creepy and I dont think the rest of the song was, so its a jarring shift in tone.]

Fast Slow Disco > Slow Slow Disco > Slow Disco

So, I guess you indirectly found an acoustic song that I prefer over the original. Bravo.

Also, it took me way too long to realize that this is the woman featured in the video for Half Love, but I did catch on just before making this writeup.

Song is good; it does have a bit of a throbbing dance beat, but it's subdued enough that I don't mind it. Like, I'd still never go to a dance, but... well I'd at least acknowledge their taste if they were playing music like this. Still dance like, but subdued and mysterious by a singer that I'd like to hear more of? Can't really top that for dance music.

[*high-pitched squeal* Oh my god, you actually nominated one of the songs referenced in that one nomination of yours from last topic! I could pounce and hug you so hard right now! I mean, I wontI dont really know you and I try to keep my furry actions to myself. Tail wagging and barking are one thing, but forcefully involving someone else (even with pretend pouncing) is several steps too far. Still! This nomination made me so happy I could barely contain myself!]

That exact moment when I realized what was happening--when the on-screen lyrics displayed "Baby" and I knew exactly what you'd done and what was coming next--has to be one of the greatest moments from either topic. I don't know that I could ever overstate the joy I felt at that point.

...Unfortunately, the thing about a surprise is that it stops being a surprise on repeat listens. I can remember the joy, but I can't experience it again. For better or worse, I'm less...that at the moment. Not that it isn't still a good song, obviously! Just, once you've removed the surprise factor, you're left with another pop love song and (as far as I can tell) there's no real twist or mystery to the lyrics. Which is fine, nothing wrong with a straight to the point love song.
