[edit] Song Information

The song follows in the footsteps of Rihanna's previous single "Don't Stop the Music" by being a fast and upbeat pop/dance-rhythmic song. However in contrast to the upbeat music of "Disturbia", it is lyrically dark in tone, being about a state of mental anguish and confusion. The song follows an ABAB lyric format. It is also notable for being the first single from Good Girl Gone Bad in which Rihanna had a hand in writing, though she has written a few tracks before on her previous albums.
