    The whole album is catchy as fuck. Love "Knock 'em out" too, when she's singing over the "Big chief" loop.

    ""I've spent my whole life trying to get something out of my dad, to no avail!" - Lily Allen bats away those suggestions that daddy Keith is somehow responsible for her success..."

    Everytime Lily Allen is mentioned, my girlfriend mumbles something like "I'll kill that f-in whore" under her breath.

    ANYWAY... Here's the Radioclit remix of "LDN" which is quite good too IMO:

    Yeah that Lily Allen lp is tip top, pop music at it's best.
    I love how all the songs are so sugary sounding
    but in reality are michievious or downright evil.
    Check the videos for "Smile" and "LDN" both of them are stellar!

    Lily Allen gets bonus points for:

    1. Being a record me and my 2 1/2 daughter agree on

    2. Sampling so much ska and reggae.

    3. "Smile" video when she pays thugs to sabotage her Ex's life
    including some vinyl abuse! Ouch!

    Lily Allens alrite, but it's all a little too sugary and fake for me.

    Please to checkout miss Amy Winehouse. If you're interested in UK female singers of song. thankyou.

    You think so? I personally prefer the remix, and almost everytime I've played it out someone's come up to me with halfway-melted off face. But to each his own.

    I could see that, the beat aint all that bad, it's the fact that its 4/4 which makes me say eh, but on second listen it sounds a lil better. The keys are a good match to the vocal for sure. Word

    winehouse >>>>>>>> allen

    Winehouse's favourite cocktail is a Rickstasy (three parts vodka, one part Southern Comfort, one part banana liqueur, and one part Baileys). ???By the time you???ve had two of them you???re like, don???t even try and go anywhere. Sit down and stay down, until the birds start singing.

    homegirl is wildin though, she needs to slow down. She also needs a cheeseburger while she's at it, see here. Her new album is real solid, 60's girl group soul appeal. I recommend.

    Lily Allen is cool, she's a nice chick. Good taste too - she bought a bunch of my friends clothes when she was in Australia.

    She seems to have a sense of humour, and that goes along way I reckon. Plus

    DEAL WITH IT? OR NO DEAL?

    yay or nay?


    YAY!

    I'll ride for this shit.

    Her first single "Smile" samples the Soul Brothers "Free Soul". Nobody is doing that shit in Pop music or any other shit for that matter.

    Yay too. Happy to see i'm not the only one to think that.

    dude, marklatency - THANK YOUSE for turning me onto this. She has been in steady rotation this week and I've turned on at least 3 other folks to her.


    I love the fact that you can hear her accent even through her singing, which usually you don't with english bands.

    I really enjoyed the tracks posted above. It's definitely solid pop. But anybody who drinks a cocktail made of southern comfort, banana liqueur, and Baileys has a problem (namely no sense of taste). The thought of that combination alone is enough to make me wretch.

    You're welcome. Good music should be shared, yaoming???

    Lily's music is certainly fun and catchy. Anyone trying to analyze it can fall back.

    Sampling Jackie Mittoo amongst others =

    When having a shitty day at work and those Lily videos come on the music channel it make the day a little easier to get through.

    Dude Mark, everytime I see that woman from Desperate Housewives, I think of you. This is highly disturbing. Would you try to restrain yourself from associating yourself with these decent looking white girls?
