Cute. It’s like a feel good song that I would clean the house to (if it just happened to be playing from somewhere). I could see her being appealing to the Disney crowd.

I like this song…the video needs to be released without the movie clips. Here and Travis look hot together. I agree that she is no B…but then again who would want to b B all the time. I think she has a really nice voice and its to bad she cant get from under Mathews grip.I think one day she’ll be sick and tired of being sick and tired and will tell B and Mathew and the whole damn family to”kick rocks”, hopefully it wont be to late to save her career. She should do like LeToya and step all they way away from everything that has to do with B and start over, it may take longer and require more hard work but in the end it will be worth it.

I like Kelly, but this song is straight boring! She knows better. I know on this re-release she better have Gotsta Go. The song is HOT the beat is HOT & she sounds wonderful performing it live. Check out the vid on YouTube. I don’t know who’s responsible for picking out the tracks to include on her album &/or to be released as singles… but they should quit ASAP!!!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pwnEsXpgwIs “Gotsta Go” - This is the Destiny’s Child Kelly! The one with all the confidence. That’s what I want to see & hear…. Confidence. You can do it Kelly, I got ya back

I like the song but the video definitely could have done without the movie clips Kelly Rowland is a very good singer but it is true she’ll never be as big as Beyonce but she has always had a great voice and has alot of potential to be more successful than she has been in the states… she definitely needs to get rid matthew and get a new team all together because they are too worried about Beyonce to promote her right and let her music get some real shine….

Here’s a snippit of an interview I found on kellyrowlandweb.com. It appears that she recognized the flaws in the first release of Ms Kelly (not that it was bad at all…even critics liked it) Perhaps this go-round we can at least expect a new and improved Kelly…and perhaps you have to fall down before you can get back up…
READ ON….
Since our topic of conversation has shifted to music, it’s pertinent to mention that Rowland will be re-releasing her second album, Ms. Kelly in March 2008. The first single to mark the album release is Daylight, a collaboration with Gym Class Heroes and she was all excited about it.
“I had a great time recording it with those creative hunks,” Rowland said of the collaboration. “Shooting the music video for the song was hilarious, with Travis especially. He looked so funny and cute when he was riding a weird modified-bicycle in the middle of the bustling city. “I’m looking forward to working with them again and if I’m lucky, I would love to collaborate with other great producers like Timbaland just to freshen up my sound a little more,” she added.
When asked why she decided to re-release the album and not record a new one instead, Rowland said it was simply because she felt the final tracklist were made of too many midtempos and ballads. “I didn’t realise it while I was recording it. After it was released [back in June] many fans said the songs would rock if they were more upbeat.” “I guess that might have been the cause of the poor acceptance to Ms. Kelly the first time around. Hopefully, the fans are going to be much happier with the rereleased version.”
When asked about the best way to describe her music, Rowland said all her solo albums serve as her secret diaries where she can be Kelly Rowland the person and not the star. “My music is basically about the person in me, my feelings and how I dealt with things in life. I feel the sincerity is really important, especially in establishing the connection with my fans.”

I like the song and the video. The beat is tight…. I also like that there is no overt sexualtiy in the video. The video is very different.. not the usual ‘in da club’ scenes…
I like it!

I dont really like the video too much, i dunno. I love Ms Kelly to death but this song…im not feelin it, it’ll definitely have to grow on me and there’s no way that song will sell in the US. Homegirl really needs help with her solo career…quickly

I think Kelly needs new management. I like the song actually but it sounds like a good album track and not a single. I love her voice but i’m not seein anything that really stands out. Imagine if she was never in Destinys Child and she was a brand new artist coming out with a song like this? Maybe she just needs to find out who she is musically. Kelly is very beautiful and her voice is so smooth and clear. i’m jus saying, maybe if she started a girl group with a different management and she could be the beyonce of the group…ok bad idea. I dont know, all I know Kelly is talented and I’m waiting for a great song of substance to move me, and when i say substance…it can be a dance song or a slow song…

I liked the song and the video.
But Kelly needs to leave the Knowles clan like Letoya ,Latavia, Farrah did. Those people do not care about her or even their own daughter Solange’s career.
Good Night !

I mean, look at Rihanna. Only one of her albums have sold over a million (1.2 million) and it’s not GGGB.

Why are people always comparing her to Beyonce. Maybe if you stop comparing her to others you will see her true talent. Kelly keep your head up and keep doing “you.” I hope these sites don’t kill your spirit too much because I know reading all this garbage those take its toll. Just remember, these are just people who have to talk about others in order to make themselves look and feel better.

Kelly, dont forget your black fans that love you…but do what you got to do. Crossover like Beyonce and the blacks that love you will follow, because trying to do R&B and please these stupid negroes is not going to happen. As long as you trying to sing and dance they will always compare you to Beyonce like she is the author of entertainment.
Love you and just like all your other albums I will buy this one. Please, dont stop keep your head up!

GGGB may have been certified platinum, but it has yet to sell a million copies. As of the last chart, she’s scanned 953,000.

i like Kelly, she has a great voice
i dont want her to end up running away overseas to sell records, its annoying when that happens because that means abandoning US fans because the artist gave up. (check out Coolio).
they can keep Ashely Simpson, Rihanna, and Kelis.
i dont want Europe to take Kelly ;_;

people kill me. you can’t compare kelly’s style or the songs to anyone else geez people wake up the girl has a voice so her songs and videos aren’t like beyonce’s but man she isnt beyonce and she isnt tryin to be. if she did all the things beyonce does in her videos and songs then ya’ll would be saying she just trying to be like B and she need her own style and guess what she has it. simply deep was the best but you guys didnt appreciate that then. man people her style her music isnt wack its different and she does better over seas because they are open minded when it comes to music. daylight is an awesome song and with travis its on point. i bet if you take that same music and lyrics and but beyonce and jay z instead of kelly and travis ya’ll would be all over it saying its a hit.and ya’ll know im right. to many movie clips hell listen had clips all over it from dreamgirls and yet no one complained. you guys are crazy man i laugh lol lol its time to open ya eyes to everyones music because (and im guilty of it to) down play people who should be at the top. respect her passion respect her game she wants it and she’s doing her best waaay better than some of these artist. time to show respect people and give the girl her props cuz they are do. so now do what you guys do best and commence to pulling my post to pieces lol. i still love ya’ll man lol

THIS IS A R&B SONG correction soulful r&b as in not singing over a hip hop beat ! geez people lol let us not forget that R&B doesnt have just one face. aight im finish this time good night people love ya see ya on the next post
