"I Can Be" is a song by British singer-songwriter Taio Cruz, released as the fourth single from his debut album Departure, released in May 2008. The song peaked at number 18 on the UK Singles Chart. The single's B-side, "Disco Fever", was written and recorded exclusively for the release, and featured in the television adverts for Britannia High, an ITV1 musical series broadcast in July 2008.
Reception
[edit]Digital Spy gave the song three out of five stars, claiming the song's "electro beats and string samples are subtler and more graceful than Timbaland's chunky wallops" and "the ultra-confident and cliché-packed lyrics, though not to everyone's tastes, are refreshingly unpretentious."[1]
