Songwriting credits for Gwen Stefani’s latest aren’t in the wild yet, but I wouldn’t be surprised to find Sia’s name in there, with Gwen channelling that strain of vocal intonation, with a touch of exaggeration. The chorus isn’t quite spectacular, especially the soggy touch of Coldplay-scale fanfare. The percussion-heavy verses are fairly solid. But overall, disappointingly uninspiring pop from a proven maverick.
