New Pop on the Block

Jesse McCartney – Body Language (Listen)
How Do You Sleep is still my favourite of Jesse’s songs, but it was the first one I ever liked, and now I’m pleased to announce that he has managed to make a second good song! Jesse’s doing pretty well right now, having a hit with a remixed and rapped up version of How Do You Sleep in America, and he’s also one of the new characters on the increasingly popular TV series, Greek. Since he’s quite likeable (although boring) on Greek, I’m starting to unhate him a bit, although to say I like him is a stretch. He stole Jordan from Rusty, after all, and no-one crosses Rusty and gets away with it! I must say Body Language is better than anything Justin Timberlake’s released in years. If JT doesn’t get his act together and release a 3rd album soon, he could be usurped by a member of Dream Street, the crappiest *N Sync imitation band there ever was!

Lacrosse – We Are Kids (Watch)
Whether or not this video was at all inspired by Lacrosse’s acetastic fellow Swedes, I’m From Barcelona, it will certainly lead to comparisons between the two bands. Although Lacrosse actually only has 6 members, they seem to have acquired several more for the purposes of their new video, although they’ll need to recruit a few more of their friends if they want to keep up with Emanuel from Barcelona (or Jonkoping, one of the two) and his 26 bandmates. I’d be happy to join Lacrosse, if they’re looking for more members! I am looking for a job, actually. Anyway, We Are Kids is mainly a duet between the two singers, both of whom are a bit scary to be honest, but I suppose it adds to the group’s overall jolly quirkiness. It’s catchier than anything on IFB’s disappointing latest release, so they have my support.
