LYRICS:
I don't know who but it wasn't me He wasn't all that you'd thought he'd be And then broke your heart Girl you should have let me know 'Cos you left it kind of hard for me to show Just how it feels when I'm next to you 'Cos them other girls They ain't nothing next to you No doubt in my mind 'cos I know it's you So tell me lady what you wanna do 'Cos loving you Is all that I know girl why would I lie If you want me to I'll give you just a little more time to decide If I could be your anything 'Cos you to me are everything I'm talking to the mirror at 5am Waiting for your call in the pouring rain Sugar coated kiss and a lipstick mark There are 7 ways of breaking my heart Wasted conversation and bad TV Losing our original chemistry Walking like I'm dancing on priceless art There are 7 ways of breaking my heart Turn off the TV girl We need to talk about the way 'Cos I thought I heard you say Something 'bout not being there for you So what do I have to do to show I care for you I'm saying I could be the one No more playing girls for fun Baby let me prove I got just what you need If you give me half a chance to romance you 'Cos you make me feel complete 'Cos loving you Is all that I know girl why would I lie If you want me to I'll give you just a little more time to decide If I could be your anything 'Cos you to me are everything I'm talking to the mirror at 5am Waiting for your call in the pouring rain Sugar coated kiss and a lipstick mark There are 7 ways of breaking my heart Wasted conversation and bad TV Losing our original chemistry Walking like I'm dancing on priceless art There are 7 ways of breaking my heart Switch A couple of nights gone by She ain't called yet and I don't know why Could it be I didn't give enough attention Or was it something I said or didn't mention Slow down - too damn fast Bounce with another chick with a fine ass Not me, got the other girl, on hold I was on line too she was going all cold

"7 Ways" enlists the services of Brian Higgins, the Sugababes/Girls Aloud guru who teams his charge with new BMG signee Eve to create a duet of B-boy bravado; simple, naïve and stupidly catchy in execution. You'll be elephant-juicing in the bathroom mirror before you realise it (try it, you'll see what I mean). Bren O'Callaghan

Opening with a soft, chiming electro noise, a melancholy beat continues with Abs softly bemoaning a lost love before Eve (not crazy American rapper woman, but a then, new BMG signing who doesn’t appear to have reappeared since) joins in with a soft, wilting chorus. It bizarrely reminds me of brilliant dance track 7 Colours by Lost Witness (...). Karinski
