i’m smarter than this
Not to flog the Duff any more than she needs to be flogged, but Danger is another slick track off her slick new album. The ‘I’m smarter than this, I know better than this’ bit is brilliant.
Erasure – I Could Fall In Love With You (Jeremy Wheatly Radio Mix)
Erasure was the first band I really, really liked–what that says about me, I don’t know. It must have been 1993–my friend’s British nanny Lisa dubbed many an Erasure album onto cassette tape for me. Erasure’s output has been a bit uneven since their early 90s heyday, but they’ll always hold a special place in my heart. Jermy Wheatly only gently massages the original in this remix. The back beat is slightly played up, to good effect.
Good Charlotte feat. M Shadows and Synyster Gates – The River
This new single from Good Charlotte has a bit of a 90s/grunge/Green Day vibe to it, in a good way. I love the ‘on my own’ chorus add-on at the end.
Shiny Toy Guns – You Are The One
The River’s ‘yearning rock’ vibe but adds synth and female callback vocal. Not too shabby.
