Dirrrty Pop Review: Daniel Bedingfield – Second First Impression

I wouldn’t call myself a fan of Daniel himself but I really liked his last album and his general idiocy doesn’t stop him being a great songwriter. Here is my short guide of what to expect from his new CD: Growing Up A tougher urban/latino number to open with that wouldn’t have sounded out of… Continue reading Dirrrty Pop Review: Daniel Bedingfield – Second First Impression

Losing My Religion

I’m very ashamed to say that I have been enjoying some rather unethical singles lately. First I found myself downloading and playing on repeat I Predict A Riot by the Kaiser Chiefs. And now I’m becoming worryingly fond of Green Day (they’re just like Busted except semi-good), in particular their incredibly lovely new single Boulevard… Continue reading Losing My Religion

Video Killed The Radio Star

Here are some songs that I’ve seen the video to already but won’t be released until the new year: Stonebridge – Take Me Away Put ‘Em High was a typical 2004 dance hit but certainly one of the better of a generally terrible selection. I was very interested to find that the singer on the… Continue reading Video Killed The Radio Star

Everybody’s Gone Surfin’…

Here are a few unmissable things on the internet right now that I am feeling the unrestrainable need to share with you: Download a great Scissor Sisters-esque Freeform Five song at Fluxblog. Get excited about new GA songs with Edward at Enthusiastic But Mediocre. Read the highly accurate Anniemal review by William at Stylus. Listen… Continue reading Everybody’s Gone Surfin’…

It’s what Kylie should have done instead of Slow and alongside all her old ace hits and the new GA-sound-alike Xenomania-produced track Giving You Up, she’s making Ultimate Kylie very tempting. As you probably… Continue reading Video Killed The Radio Star

The Xmas Factor

It might not even be November yet but already the best are coming in fast for this year’s Christmas no.1. It was around this time last year that Gary Jules started getting noticed and eventually went on to save us from a Christmas covered in Darkness, covered in Darkness. So who is going to save… Continue reading The Xmas Factor

Singles Wars

Last week was quite terrible for singles so we ended up going rather indie for one week only and Mylo was the only one of our singles to reach the top 20. Drop The Pressure reached no.19 but they were in fact the losers on the Dirrrty Pop vote. The winners were the Hidden Cameras… Continue reading Singles Wars

Video Killed The Radio Star

3rd Wish – Obsésion This utterly terrible song has somehow been a huge hit across Europe this year, but as is common with Euro hits (See Dragostea Din Tei) there were several versions. The main and original version is by Aventura but it’s the US boyband (from Florida, so wanting to be the new NSync… Continue reading Video Killed The Radio Star
