Looking Back....

In the long, arduous 3 months since I started this blog, the popular music landscape has become a very different place. It's a fast paced world and I can't keep up. Looking back even over my humble posts, I can with hindsight note:

  • 'Diet Mountain Dew' DID make it onto the Lana Del Rey album. The album was indeed fabulous.
  • 'Starships' WAS a huge hit. There is STILL no video for it.
  • Katy Perry DID put 'Part of Me' on the Teenage Dream rerelease. It DID go to number 1 both sides of the pond. My psychic powers DID NOT predict that she would cover Jay Z and Kanye but my oh my, wasn't it good?
  • Gotye DID refuse to go away with his baa baa black sheep rubbish. It DID NOT get any less irritating.
  • Sky Ferreira DID NOT release any new music :(
 So now, in the interests of predicting the future, I'm going to stick my neck out and say THIS will be big:
fun. feat Janelle Monae - 'We are Young'

This is Gotye style melodic credible manpop DONE RIGHT. Infectious but like laughter, not STI's. My prediction.

Ok so it already got to number 1 in the states but shhhhhhhhhhhh, noone needs to know that...

Not to be confused with this poorly sung Rihanna wannabe back-of-the-bus anthem:

Tulisa - 'Young'


IT'S NOT ABOUT FELLATIO.
