Taio Cruz
Come On Girl

Island

WE SAY

British-born 23 year-old writer,producer and artist Taio Cruz, who had two top 30 hits with 'I Just Wanna Know' and 'Move On' in the recent past, releases this as his next single. It features Luciana, who you will remember from the 2006 Bodyrox hit 'Yeah Yeah'.'One of the year's 'early moments of amazingness' according to Popjustice, it certainly presses all the right buttons for us. The remix line-up features a great mix by 'bassline godfathers' Delinquent (listen to it on their MySpace), Sticky and Wideboys. The single has just been added to R1 and is on their C-list 6 weeks upfront. Cruz has written, arranged, performed and produced everything on his debut album 'Departure', which follows on March 17.
