Selena Gomez is an unpredictable artist. She has good songs that get popular, and bad songs that get popular; and vice versa she has unpopular good songs, and some that deserved to stay unpopular. But no matter what song she has, it's never number one material.
She was able to get her biggest hit with "Love You Like a Love Song" which was both catchy and unique. Now she has to follow that, yet "Hit the Lights" might not do that. She turns up the tempo on this song, so she'll still get people's attention with the dance style, but it's not a very interesting song.
Musically, it's just another dance song with nothing new about it. You've heard the same type so many times before, so when a generally boring artist does it again it's just not that intriguing. Then there's the lyrics, which I'm a little confused about. The verses sing about lost opportunities, the chorus is about dancing. I can see what they were aiming for, but it just sounds so disjointed. One minute she's lamenting the boy she didn't kiss, then it's just party, party, party.
Like I said, Selena Gomez is unpredictable and I don't know if this song will be a hit or not. Considering how she's still fresh off the success of "Love You Like a Love Song" I think that people will want to hear this song. But will they get bored of it soon? How far will it go before it drops? This may be Selena's last song for a while so let's hope she goes out with a bang.
