From the grinding electro of the opening bars, it's clear that 'S.O.S (Let The Music Play)' is no sugary throwaway. Over a heady concoction of bombastic beats and swirling synths, Sparks shows her previously unseen fiery side ("Look in her eyes, she's mentally undressing him") as she launches into the Shannon-sampling hook. It's a bold and exciting departure from her usual ballads and one that shows there's more to Sparks than many originally thought.

Oh look another talentless shop assistant thrusting her crotch at our TV screens to an RnB backing track! Oh joy!

OMG.This song is amazing when i first heard i said WTF is this.But.Then I loved it.It just grew on me.Like Battlefield and No Air This Will Be a chart Topper.It wont reach no1 but i hope it does
I really like Jordin Sparks. She does not get half naked in her videos and stuff like all the other bimbos like taylor swift. taylor swift is always naked. Jordan is great. I prefer her song Umbrella tho.
I Love this song i have it on repeat always make me wanna dance!

I saw the video and noticed she lost weight, gained curves(not that she didn't have any) and became a head turner. I don't know if I like the change, specially the lyrics in this new song. All in all she sexy-d up big time. I f she lost weight to make herself be healthy then kudos to her.

AWEESOMEE song shud b number 1 i wish, top 5 def on cd release
Love this song! Definitely rivals the clubby tracks from Rihanna and Lady Gaga.
Another great song from Jordin Sparks. Love it! Let The Music Play and give it AN EXTRA STAR!!
great song!!
love this song! Hope it reaches number1
No Air is complete sh**e, Battlefield was moderate. But This is atcully very very very good. It may not be the best song of the year but it is defiantly one of the most addictive. This should get top ten or higher as it is a more than decent track who has now just proved shes got the full package.
Wow i thought aftr battlefield i would die if i heard her voice again after it was always online!! But this is such a good song wow well done Jordin!!
I just LOVE the video S.O.S. Let The Music Play with Jordin Sparks! I thought her "No Air" video by Chris Brown was good but I just love this one! Great job Miss Sparks and keep up the great work!
I really like this song. It's a grower. I hope it will become Jordin's second top ten hit. I love Jordin she's amazing.
This is a real grower. When I first listened to the album, songs like Don't Let It Go To Your Head stood out above this. But it's a definite grower and it's moving up the charts a lot faster than Battlefield did. Although that single stalled just outside the top 10, I reckon that the hype around it might just help this one be her first entry in the higher climes of the chart which is great.
I really like this song!! It's good to see Jordin's versatility as well...
Nice to see her doing something different - and prove she can really dance in the video too. Catchy song, although I hate it when singers use words like 'text' in a song...!
I loved this song :) Jordin did well in 2009
