Nicole Scherzinger’s “On The Rocks” Gets An Electro-House Overhaul For The UK: Listen To The Wideboys Remix

Nicole Scherzinger is going with gorgeous, stripped-back ballad “Run” as the lead single from new LP Big Fat Lie in the US but she has taken a slightly different route in the UK. The former Pussycat Doll launched the project with top 10 hit “Your Love” over the summer before moving on to mid-tempo break-up anthem “On The Rocks”, which drops later this month.

Produced by The-Dream and Try Stewart, “On The Rocks” is something of a grower but the new official remix by ever-reliable English duo Wideboys should give it broader appeal in that particular, dance-orientated market. While I prefer the original, this is still a lot of fun and will, no doubt, sound a lot better (after a few drinks) on a dance floor. Listen after the jump.
