Most would advise someone feeling stressed or down in the dumps to talk to a professional shrink, but, as we all know, not everyone is loaded or insured enough to foot that bill.  Fortunately for the cash-strapped, though, veteran DJ/producer (and Booth newcomer) David Guetta has teamed up with hitmaking hip-hopster Kid CuDi to develop a simple, inexpensive solution to all your mental health needs: simply let loose and party your ass off!  With all those crazy Memories to look back on, how could anyone feel blue?  Okay, that might not be the greatest advice, but it is delivered in one bangin’ package; the EMI signee’s propulsive boardwork, driven by a relentless kick, pounding piano chords, and (on the hook) minor-key synth arpeggios, is guaranteed to get bodies moving, and CuDi’s distinctively deadpan sung vocals only add to the appeal.  Sound medical advice might be a little much to ask, but fans looking for more House-infused, dancefloor-scorching jams would do well to pick up a copy of Guetta’s One Love when it drops on the 24th—doctor’s orders!

David Guetta is a stud! He's one of my favorite DJ's in the game because he brings hits (like Khaled) actually produces the beats (unlike Khaled) and doesn't need a long line of guest features. I don't mean hate on Khaled because I love a lot of his work but Khaled is really the only DJ other than maybe Drama that rivals Guetta in making mainstream hits. But I like David Guetta because he also works with pop/R&B artists. Cop his album when it comes out!

As for the song, what can I say? The production has energy and you can't go wrong with Kid CuDi.

So the booth dosnt feature either 'Sexy @*#$!' which featured Akon (and is currently number 1 in Australia) or 'When Love Takes Over' that featured Kelly Rowland (reached number 7 in Aus) but features this? It just seems a little odd considering I cant see this track reaching the heights of those 2 joints.

To this track, the production is tight from Guetta (he is quickly making quite a good niche market for himself) & Cudi sounded pretty good. This track is no where near as good as Sexy @*#$! (Easily my favorite club song of 09), but its still pretty tight.

3.5

agreed with others...the akon track and the kelly rowland track are both huge overseas, starting to be big here. kid cudi understands the kind of music guetta makes, so he puts very basic, catchy lyrics on a hot club beat. just listened to the whole album. it's not for hip hop heads...but if u appreciate crowd moving dance music, get it!

David is a very talented producer. Cudi does he usual thing on this one. Nothing new from him (even though he is hardly an "old" artist). Looking forward to this new album - dropping on Tuesday.

1. Let's remember this is house, not hip hop. No MC is going to sound like Kweli over a beat like this. This is DJ Booth, not Backpacker Booth.

2. It's hard to judge house tracks when you're not dancing. Reassess accordingly.

3. Guetta is dope, and this album will expose even more of the Clear Channel crowd to some great pop-house. That's a good thing.

The song is aight but I agree that it's a little bit too repetitive even though it is a dance track (which usually are). The beat is tight and because he's not constantly yelling "we the best", he holds a very slim edge over Dj Khalid. 3.5 but rounding up because Guetta's beat say everything that's needed to be said

I was expecting this beat to open up more and that just didn't happen... nothing I would want to really hear again.

Stop comparing Guetta to Khaled, they are 2 completely different types of DJ's.

Khaled is a radio DJ that co-ordinates tracks for the streets, while Guetta is a club DJ who makes tracks for the clubs. They cannot be compared

I think @djgohard has said it the best ...
Its exactly what the club DJ’s need to get everyone on the dance floor and get lost in the song/moment ... Rotation-Stuff.

Wow, I'm an idiot, I thought that said David Garrard.

That's the only reason I even clicked on this one and because of Kid Cudi too.

But that was actually a pretty good track, even though he only says about two different words in the whole song. lol
