naval23 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 They were underperforming hard with "Doll Domination" and had one chance and released this bop at their lowest It went #1 in Australia (their first since "Don't Cha) and top 10 in 20+ countries and #2 on the European Hot 100 (their highest since "Stickwitu" almost 4 years prior) 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Into The Void Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 A MASSIVE bop 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverted Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Yes. And it's better than the female vocals by Maha Lakshmi Iyer in the original. Nicole did a great job singing the song even though some of the lyrics she and Ester Dean wrote were cheesy. Fun fact: AR Rahman is LIP SYNCING to the male vocals in the video. That is NOT his voice. I think it's Vijay Prakash singing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nostalgic Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 The international boppery they were giving with this still a timeless classic, as is Slumdog Millionaire. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MatiRod Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 This has got to be one of the messiest songs ever. Just the fact they turned "Jai Ho" into a pop girl remix. The 'feat. Nicole Scherzinger' credit. Nicole mispronouncing it as "Jay Ho" and them keeping it in the final version. The fact the PCD did the soundtrack single to a Best Picture winning movie (iconic). But a bop is a bop! You are the reason that I breathe Jai hooooooo You are the reason that I still believe 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Jay Hoe" is a much more accurate pronunciation than "Jie Hoe" like most North Americans pronounced it. Jai does not rhyme with high and Ho does not rhyme with toe.
