Cheryl Cole Releases Debut Single
Filed under: Anglophilia > Cheryl ColeGirls Aloud member and X Factor judge Cheryl Cole is going solo - just temporarily, though, as Girls Aloud are not breaking up.
Cheryl debuted her first-ever single as a solo recording artist Monday morning and… it's good. It's good but not great.
It'll probably grow on us, but it's far from amazing. And it's definitely not bad.
We really weren't expecting much, so we're not disappointed. However, if she really wants to make it in America, this is not the single that will do it for her.
Check out Fight For This Love (above).
What do U think????

i agree. it's okay :-\
meh..
She's trying to break America? Foolish girl.
I love it! She's not the strongest singer but the beat is wicked!! Love Cheryl!!!
I like Cheryl but this isnt a debut single I agree. Girls Aloud will always get me going though xD
Love it!
I adore Cheryl. And this song is definitely a grower.
What ever she does in the UK will be well received. But she needs something that will smack the socks off everyone to make it big in the US and HOPEFULLY AUSTRALIA!!!
Meh
meh! nothin special!
its TERRIBLE!
I like it. Catchy! A fair first effort
nadda
kinda boring……..-_- shes no nadine coyle
I like Cheryl Cole but this is awful! It doesn't even sound like her!
RIP OFF of that Kelis single, "Lil Star" (with Cee Lo).
TOO MUCH AUTOTUNE (just get singing lessons Cheryl)
hideous load of S H I T
I likey!
Atypical Kylie type pop crap…………………………..jeez Perez when will you ever get some taste in music.?
Poor stupid little chav
It's OK but nothing wonderful, could have tried harder. Might be a grower though…
Very cute song. It would have been a great summer anthem. I liked it.
It's so bland…just fades into the background.
she needs to do something different if she wants to go far she has a bland voice. its not bad … but its not good
i love cheryl, the songs good, but not great. however i think i will be one of those songs, that you hear a few times, and it gets in your head.
it sucks
I think it's pretty good. It actually show's off her voice if you listen to the backing bit's. After hearing the demo I thought the song's tempo would be upped a bit and made more dancey. But it's good. It's one of those infectious songs that will have you humming and singing along to hours after you listen to it!
dis song is shit!
Totally forgetable.
ITS obviously about Ashley Cole. Its nice that shes a fighter. The song is good though. Great meaning behind it.
Maybe an album track, NOT a debut single!
She can't sing, end of story.
Everytime she sings "fight, fight, fight, fight, fight" I just think of her bashing that toilet attendant.
she really cannot sing!
Well this is why she is famous in the UK and not here. Because, well…they don't have alot to choose from in the UK.
ALBUM FILLER, SAME SHIT U HEAR ON THE RADIO FROM THESE NON-SINGERS EVERYDAY. HOW IS THIS BIOTCH A JUDGE ON XFACTOR ANYWAYS?? EVER HEAR COLE SING LIVE??? SHE IS TONE DEAF; SHUD LISTEN TO HERSELF SOMETIMES. SMDH.
Re: Miss USA – you what lol? The UK has amazing homegrown talents - great indie, dance, hiphop etc etc etc. We don't have alot to choose from? I don't think so, the UK has much more eclectic tastes then you could even dream of. once again, an american ignorant to the rest of the world, suprise suprise.
anyway, i digress, this is shit. but certainly better than that sliimy cock you keep bumming up perez
why does she want to break america anyways? stick with them lot and shell get fat.
Re: Miss USA – Maybe they jsut dont like fatty yanks?
Re: Stylish Kid - I know. The beatles, queen, oasis, amy winehouse and many more. Americans are fucking ignorant and only have rnb/pop shitty stuff. –
Re: Miss USA – eh, just because not every artist in the uk doesn't want to be turned into a plastic piece of shite by tasteless american producers etc doesn't mean there isn't talent here. just talent America isn't worthy of.
Re: aimsy – You guys are the fattest in Europe. Look it up. So what the hell are you talking about? You guys are too fat and too drunk to know good music. Stupid europtrash. Like I said, she is famous in the UK and that's where she'll remain famous. Our artist are famous around the WORLD. Even the crappy ones. Sit down and shut up.
Very generic, but it's not bad.
She should have come with something that sounds ORIGINAL. A lot of songs sound like this this year.
Still, OK though
Re: aimsy – riggght. The beatles are over. Queen is over. Oasis broke up and were only famous for like a minute over here. Amy Winehouse is a crackhead. Anything else?? And that pop/r&b shit you speak of SELLS in England. That's why American artist can sell out tours over there whereas your artist couldn't sell out a club over here.
Re: poppymaverick – yeah poppy, that's right Cheryl Cole had Will.i.am produce this. A crappy American producer. LOLOL!
Re: Miss USA – \Are you off your rocker love???
The UK has created some of the best musical talents of all time!!!
Who cares f you dont like this song, but you cant just write off the whole of the UK!!! thats mental!!!
Re: Miss USA –
MISS USA IS A LESBIAN, THIS IS OBVIOUS THROUGH THE FACT SHE COMMENTS ON EVERYSINGLE CHERYL COLE/GIRLS ALOUD THIGN THAT PEREZ POSTS ON HERE, MISS USA WANTS TO RAPE CHERYL WITH A STRAP ON AND HAVE AN ORGY WITH GIRLS ALOUD, GOOD JOB MISS USA'S IS IN USA, BECAUSE IF SHE LIVED IN ENGLAND IM SURE CHERYL WOULD GET A RESTRAINING ORDER ON HER,
but anyway i quite like this tune, well done cheryl doing your country proud, and california loves you
whatever tbh
Re: walnutcreek-ca – well that was quite boring to read…..
The song still sucks. Cheryl Cole sucks. Her husband sucks (allegedly) and my opinion still stands. I don't get intimidated on a website. Not at all. Now I'm off to comment on some other thread. Ta ta!
Re: Miss USA – U do realise ur the kinda person who makes us hate america. Nd i think u shud get UR facts straight cus america is the fattest nation! So suk on that!
Awful song. Sit down.
She's Cheryl Cole. Everything she touches turns to gold, whether we like it or not. Fortunately for me, I adore her, so I don't have to barf at the very sight of her. Our Push Ten will definitely succeed.
Miss USA- You're George Bush's bitch.
Re: jones19 – Actually, she has expressed her interest for GIRLS ALOUD to break america, not her as a solo artist. This whole solo artist thing is something you can consider as "part time", as the band has 3 more albums to make starting 2010. In my opinion, this is just a marketing ploy, keep visibility for Girls Aloud members (music, telly,fashion, movies).
hmmmm I think the word is bland. I love cheryl cole but this is what happens when individuals seperate from a band….there is a reason that she is a success in a group! Stick to x factor love and let Nadine do the singing!!! Anyone else thinking shes picked this cos it relates to her idiot of a husband? xx
Re: Cookie21 – I do haha. Too obvious. Bland, but I stand by with what I said earlier. She's Cheryl Cole, whatever she touches turns to gold. Funny though, why people assume that the most talented should always succeed. I always remember Madonna vs Cyndi Lauper. Everyone's saying Cyndi is more talented. Guess who faded away?
How did she ever get in Girls Aloud!???….Sorry but this is rubbish for a first single, it just sounds like bubblegum pop!!!…She has only brought her own single out because she is on the xfactor and was thrown all over the papers when her "Lovely" husband cheated hence that making her more well known. I dont like it and if it gets to number one then the public are more stupid that i first thought! meh…
I can see it being used for a movie, but yeah… not a radio smash hit!
Re: Ms Right – hahahahaha! i love cheryl but that was hilarious!
i like the song, i might be in the minority but the more i listened to it the more i loved itRe: Miss USA – 'dont have much to choose from'? american charts are clogged with shit that all sounds the same, even just in the uk top 40 youve got your pop, dance, hiphop, grime, bassline, indie, rock, electronica et etc etc. youre exactly the sort of yank the rest of the world hate
Re: Sammie_101 – she got in the band through a tv show. she has a really good voice, its just a shame this song doesnt show it.
Barf.
NADINE has to come out with her single now! she's obviously the force (and voice) behind girls aloud!
Re: coolkid!!! – lol i know how she got in the band, because i watched the show. it was a rhetorical question.
Re: Miss USA –
The Rolling Stones.
Iron Maiden.
Queen didn't break up, Freddie Mercury DIED .
Even Jimi Hendrix, probably one of the best musicans to come from America prefered England… He wanted to be buried here. Get over yourself, the last good band to come out of America was the Strokes. And isn't it better to be the fattest country in quite a small continent rather than the fattest country in the WORLD. And the too drunk thing? Americans are just fucking prudes who don't know how to have a good time, what kind of country denies their people the joys of alcohol until age 21?
Not feeling this………………
It is SHITEOUS! Cheryl honey, milk all the money you can from the X-Factor because if your bandmates leave… you will be in trouble guuurrrrrrrrl! another example of a band member who should never EVER consider leaving the band.
It's good. Not great, but good. It is catchy, though.
Re: Miss USA – an american callin another country fat? do you see whats wrong with that accusation? and id rather be drunk than obese, you sound like you could do with a drink and a bit of fun
Another piece of utter pop cheesy crap. Seriously Mario, thee need to grow taste!!
as crap and autotuned as i expected
the lyrics are as vacuous as girls aloud but she doesnt have the other girls to hide behind, and of course she manages to milk the ashley affair a bit more lol
cant wait for people to wake up and realise shes shit . . . . shes giving peter andre a run for his money in the crapness stakes lamo!
Loooooove it!
i like it,,, am i the only one? think its a good song and very catchy!
I agree that it sounds like "Lil star" by Kelis…
When you first look at the picture, you are shocked by the way she's standing and looking at you with her ENORMOUS radio on her shoulder : so bitchy! And the radio is far more "fat" than her…
So, when you noticed that, you can expect the nullity of the song. Not a personal one : she sings it as if she were going to the supermarket buying potatoes!
So Cheryl, if you don't want to be ridiculous, don't make this song a single!!
dis song is just ok no way gd enuf to be a first single tryin to launch a solo career…funny feeling nadine will win girls aloud war
Just a pretty face. This song sucks. "What ever she does in the UK will be well received" Umm, I don't think so.
She should've stolen Alexandra Burke's new single instead, cos this sucks. I wonder if she'll perform it live on the X-factor? It'll never sound anything like this unless it's mimed.
Re: coolkid!!! – Whoa boy or girl chil there. Yeah in percentage, but we also have more people. I've lived in the UK you guys are not any better than we are here, but hey we do have better dentistry. I was actually told when I was living there if I needed a dentist I should fly to Germany….I was kinda shocked actually, but then I was like eh makes sense so
. Still love it there though.
If your looking for a stong female single who has pop type sound you should look at Pixie Lott www.pixielott.com. She is pretty high on the charts there and wasn't launched by a reality show ….amazen right?
Anyway I tipped Perez on this song shorty after it came out probably with like 500 other peeps or more, but anyway it's good the more you play it the more you like it in my opinion. It is in no way a "Happy" song, but not bad. I would like to hear a strong ballad from her. Well lets see what the rest of her album will hold shall we.
Is she really tying to pull off posing with a ghetto blaster on her shoulder? For seriously? OMFG. Hilarious.
This is seriously Auto-tuned. Girl can't sing live!
no no no no no no no no no
Best debute solo album ive ever heard. so proud of my idol!! Love Cheryl so much. she is the one reason i am proud to be a Geordie and this song proves how talented she really is. love you millions Cheryl.
xxxx
All of you Cheryl Cole/Girls Aloud haters are obese and ugly. This song is great. Nadine needs to hurry up and release her song too!!!
crap. how can she slate people on the x factor, if she can hardly sing herself?….
Re: WildOrchid1298 – except british people are entitled to free dental care, so your stereotype is not only knackered but several decades, centuries out of date *yawn*
I actually like this. Better than the Sugababes one for me.
ARE YOU SURE THAT'S CHERYL COLE? I mean, I know it's got her name all over it but that picture looks suspiciously like one of the lesser known girls in the band, not Cheryl.
Her voice is rough and flat. The music is over over produced. Its blah!
Re: Miss USA –
lmao you are the definition of an ignorant yank. All it took was Amy Winehouse to write an album and she came over there and stole about 12 grammys. Not too mension The Beatles, Spice Girls, Rolling Stones, Duffy, leona ..and even the most watched show on american tellevison (American Idol) was brought over there from Simon Cowell ..you know that English bloke that makes he show what it is?
Cheryls Amazing! Well done on the new single
Not good.
Re: Miss USA – LOL you again! You are obviously obsessed with Cheryl and Girls Aloud that you keep on commenting on their stories. Were you the ugly hoe that Cheryl bashed in the toilet? Hahaha.
We know yo are obsessed with the UK, I have seen your comments on the Daily Mail and Sun websites.
Don't hate, appreciate. These girls are way more successful than you will ever be. And have more talent in their pinky fingers than you do in your most likely huuuuge body.
Re- Miss USA - Are you having a laugh? seriously. are you so ignorant to tell enlgish people that we do not have amazing talent. seriously. amy winehouse. the betals. oasis. vvbrown. pixxi lott. leona lewis. and to add to this our singers are naturaly good. they naturaly have the wow factor, not like 'americans' for example. britney spears- crazy lady who mimes in concerts. miley cyrus- 16 year old diseny slut. katy perry- she can not sing live to save her life. i would name more but there is to many to remember. yeah remember oh look. your singers are so crap ive foggten who they are. let me tell you girl! with a attuide & ignorance like yours, you will never become a miss USA. your a discrase.
Re: lisarose11 – hahaha Sarah Harding has the best voice in girls aloud. Nadine is up herself.
Re: Miss USA – erm if our country has no talent why is America obsessed with our reality TV contestants (erm Leona Lewis, and Susan Boyle stand up please).
It's actually funny howmany of our acts make it into your charts considering our size compared to you. Duffy, Cold Play, The Spice Girls, Amy Winehouse, estelle, MIA, Lily Allen.
Some of yoursa wanna be British (erm can Madonna please raise her hand). As for that 90% of the shit your country produces never leaves the US.
oh and just to add I actually like this song, I think it's gonna grow on me. It's not a smack in you face song, it's a more you hear it the better it gets song. A lot of the best are
Re: miss usa. the only good person you had was michael jackson. hes dead. we have madonna. mika. prince. & for god sake simon cowell. The english man who made the show american idol. seriously. think befor you type.
amazing! i stayed up until 3 am florida time to hear the premiere!
Cheryl, I love you forever, but this is awful. I've tried so hard to like it, but just can't. The autotune is working overtime and the production is piss poor. Her team have really let her down. Proof that members of amazing girlbands should never go solo
LOLOLOL! Awwww…I made all the British people mad! LOLOLOL! They're all commenting to meeeee! I feel so special. Keep em coming!
She's a talentless reject the only reason she wants to break america is because the knows thats where the big money is she can't sing at all she's just greedy and she's a dick i can't stand the little scrotty cow
She is a poor excuse of a woman, noone in their right mind would be married to that piece of shit named Ashley Cole.
i lyk it!! i noooo tht in a few weeks we wil no evry word n b singin along wen wer out!! gotta looove miss cole!!
