Talk:California King Bed

Edit request from 178.101.36.34, 2 April 2011
California King Bed is the fifth single by her fifth studio album Loud. At the beginning of March Rihanna asked fans to decide her next single the one with the most votes was "California King Bed". — Preceding unsigned comment added by PennaG (talk • contribs) 14:31, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

5th single, not "a song"
CKB is the FIFTH singles from Loud. It is NOT "a song from Loud". Someone change it to "CKB is the fith single taken from Rihanna's fifth album, Loud". calvin999 (talk) 21:04, 23 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Without an official release date, it can not be called a single. ℥nding · start 02:38, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
 * But Rihanna herself has said it is the next international single. (I haven't logged in, but I am the same person haha) 88.130.232.50 (talk) 10:06, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Again, without an official date, it can not be labeled as a single. One will be coming soon I assume. ℥nding · start 19:47, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Video
I read the video was sponsored by Nivea, who she is endorsing, is that worth mentioning? calvin999 (talk) 15:13, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Genre
The genre of the song is definitely not pop. It is a rock song, maybe pop rock, soft rock, or simply rock Orlandodreaming (talk) 11:57, 7 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Its predominately pop, with elements of pop rock. The vocal delivery and instruments are pop. you need a reliable source to claim otherwise. &mdash;  Lil_ ℧ niquℇ № 1  [talk]  12:58, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

"The rock ballad's a different side of Rihanna than we usually get to see."

- USA Today

"Rihanna made an appearance on tonight’s episode of ‘American Idol,’ performing her new softly sexy rock ballad, ‘California King Bed."

- Pop Crush


 * Enough? There are no presented sources to argue that this is a pop song. VítoR™  get LOUD! 14:34, 8 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Another source which claims that the song is softly-rock. VítoR™  get LOUD! 14:42, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

This song is not rock, if this is rock then Ozzy Osbourne is Hip-Hop. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.203.210.233 (talk) 20:05, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
