"Sledgehammer" garnered generally positive reviews from critics, many of whom credited the production and Trainor's lyrics for crafting a song that's both catchy and shows genre diversity in the group's repertoire. Others thought that it paled in comparison with their previous single "Boss" and was average at best. The song peaked at number 40 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100, making it their first top 40 hit. It also appeared on the US Pop Songs and Adult Pop Songs charts at numbers 21 and 36 respectively. The song was certified Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

They first performed the song live at the 2014 MTV Europe Music Awards pre-show and would make later appearances on ''Good Morning America'', ''Access Hollywood Live'', ''The Talk'', the ''Today Show'' and ''The Ellen DeGeneres Show''. == Background == On October 23, 2014, Fifth Harmony announced "Sledgehammer" as the second single from their debut album, ''Reflection'', during a live stream event. The song was written by Jonas Jeberg, Meghan Trainor, and Sean Douglas, and produced by Jeberg and Harvey Mason, Jr.. It’s about the kind of love that just can’t be contained and forces you to let go.〔 On the behind-the-scenes of the song's music video, they said they "decided to with 'Sledgehammer' for our second single because our album has such a variety of sounds, and we all like completely different genres... the transition from 'Boss' to 'Sledgehammer' just shows how eclectic our sound is. And it's a relatable concept, just being with the person that you like, and feeling your heart beat like a sledgehammer."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Go Behind The Scenes On The Set Of Fifth Harmony's 'Sledgehammer' (PT/BR ) )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sledgehammer (Fifth Harmony song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
