Song of the Week - Don't Hold Your Breath

It's always the end of the month that gets shafted with hardly anything new and fun out, at least single wise. I guess they all try and bunch everything up at the beginning of the month. Thus, I have went back a week or two and revived a gem that truly does deserve some attention. Nicole Scherzinger is back with another solid track with "Don't Hold Your Breath."


I've known about this diva for a few years now. Back in 2009, she did a remix song with Pitbull, my guilty pleasure, and I've been keeping an eye out for her ever since. Her last single was with 50 Cent, and I didn't buy into it too much. Nicole, I have to say, has won me over with this song. She is finally distinguishing herself as an independent artist, and she is doing so with an impressive song.

I swear, this girl must have cameras in my house because this song is a page from my life. It is all about her finally getting over and giving up on her ex boyfriend and sort of taunting him about it. Without getting too far into my personal life lets just say this song describes my life over the past month in detail. She tells a story without spelling it out for you, which is a nice change from a great deal of pop music in today's world. While it is a bit less upbeat than most of the stuff I listen to on a regular basis, I find myself singing along to it in the car.

I still think she stole my story.

You can preview and buy this hit on iTunes here.
