This song and Alina Smith's music in general is what Ke$ha would do if she decided to make a country record. Smith herself says she's "here to break the rules," which is what this song does when classified as country music. Rooted in dubstep influenced electropop music, this track is one of the most perfect crossover songs out there. The country influence is there, if easily overlooked, but can be found in the electric guitars and banjos and the twang on Smith's vocals. It's dance oriented beat is sure to get all ladies up and dancing on their own girls nights.
A perfect culprit of people looking for instances of "reverse sexism," this track is about flirting with guys to get them to buy you drinks. Although it is a bit cruel, it is more like the girls preventing themselves from get taken advantage of by guys. It's a roundabout way of saying they're not interested. Similar to a recent review "Blonde Moment", this song is completely supposed to be a joke, which the lyrics and Smith's little giggles throughout the song indicate. Some of the best lyrics of the song include: "Boys flying like us like moths to a flame" and "Don't touch me like that, lay another finger on me you might not get it back."
This song has received airplay on Sirius XM The Highway, and some would ask if the track is country enough to be played on a country radio station. Yes, this track would be at home on a Top 40 radio station, but if country stations played San Hunt's "Take Your Time," Kelly Clarkson's "Mr. Know It All" and Taylor Swift's "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together," then there's no reason this song should not be played.
After an era of songs in which girls were desperately longing for their men, songs like this one are finally asserting women's rights through a song and declaring that they DO have their own opinions and are not going to be run by men. This songs message is simple, but is one that needs to be said.
Overall rating: 4 crowns
