Christine Posted February 11, 2009 Share Posted February 11, 2009 I am quite enjoying Lily's new album. Thank you to the friendly donor who made it possible for me to have a bit of listen today. The song that has the nasty word in its title (which I will have to remind myself when kids are around) actually reminds me of a Carpenters song (the beginning). *edit - I remember the song now - "Close To You"! *Hums*...why do birds suddenly appear, every time, you are near... Do you notice that the level of sugary sweetness of the melodies and tone of her voice is always inversely proportionate to that in the lyrics of her songs?

That's it exactly! It's like an oxymoronic experience, ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mandilambi Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'm enjoying the new record. I've never been the biggest fan of Lily's personality, but I'll always admit that she makes some extraordinary music. Two thumbs up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxxy Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I don't really like her new album. It sounds like incomplete for me, tho' I kinda like "Everyone's at it" and "Who'd have known".. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sienna Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I've been listening to her new album a lot and I absolutely love it! Catchy melodies, clever lyrics and her voice! Her voice! She is the only one so far who comes even remotely close to Mika’s music imo(okay, I’m not counting Beatles now:naughty:). Her way of singing makes it easy (easier) to register the lyrics and there’s something about the tunes, the melodies that immediately catches my ears and my attention! After listening to a few interviews with her I’m so happy to establish that she has matured a lot and that is a thing I’ve been waiting for! Good for her!

Suzy Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Come on guys, the girl has just come out with a new album! How do you like it? Shouldn't this thread be buzzing with praise? I actually really like it. A lot. I have been listening to it everyday since Christine gave it to me last week. It's singable (because she doesn't belt out high notes) and it has catchy tunes (which I am a sucker for). So I'm really excited to see her in April with my regular MFC concert pals (Christine, zoots, and closetmikafan). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are so lucky to get to see her live! Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzie Posted February 27, 2009 Share Posted February 27, 2009 I haven't heard her new album yet but The Fear is a piece of art. I want to check on youtube whether it's a one off or it is worth buying the whole album. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this while you're thinking! http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&hl=en-GB&v=-vhLyApPi_M&fmt=18 It's absolutely worth buying imo, I love it! Many of the songs are, like you put, it pieces of art. But my weak spot is and has always been this kind of melodic songs, not a wall full instruments but where you can distinguish them from each other and sung in a way that you get a chance to hear what the song is about....

Thank you, Sienna First song from album I searched on the net turned out to be great, too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kz5F20ypQ9w ...not sure what % of this is due to Greg Kurstin but lyrics are great, too. I will definitely buy the album. I love wise pop music :thumb_yello: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

guylainem123 Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 this is what perez posted today... Just who exactly does Lily Allen think she is? While playing some gigs in Lily's neck of the woods, DJ Felix Da Housecat was personally assaulted by the Tiny Trollop. According to TheeRealFDH's Twitter, Lily was so "F**K*D UP" that she invited herself into Felix's hotel room, causing the DJ "2 CALL SECURITY." Then "LILy jus told me F**K FELIX DA HOUSECAT," prompting Felix to conclude "YES!…i dont think she knew who was..I mean maybe 4 a min…Her Guitar player escorted her…she scared the daylights outta me." Nice one, Lily. Classy, as always! looks like martin came to her rescue! http://perezhilton.com/2009-03-17-lily-allen-is-a-twatter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keti Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 My mom bought me "It's Not Me, It's You" yesterday it's great, although of 12 songs there are about 6-7 that are REALLY good. Well, not everyone can be Mika I am obsessed with "Back To The Start" right now, it's SUCH an amazing song! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
