New entries from No.41-75 :
[Overpowered]
Quite a departure from her previous dance outings, this one went deep into abassy vibe a la Level 42 circa the early ’80s when she was on the JonathanRoss show.
Wonderful stuff and far better than the official video, but decide for yourself!
Click here for her Jonathan Ross performance
No expense spent on the video, and it sounds like they got Metal Mickey to dothe male voice bits. Why didn’t they just get Brian from BB8 since he seemedhappy to jump in with them every time they sang this in the house.

[Made of Bricks]
Talk about the Emperor’s New Clothes. Just what is the big deal with this talentless girl? It’s a case of,”If you can’t think of a decent lyric, just shout in Cockney and all will work out.”

Tired Of Being Sorry
[Insomniac]
Enrique sings a song about being infatuated with a scantily-clad woman walking down the high street whilehe seems to be waiting for a bus, but then she seems to be working in an S&M dungeon and there are otherhotter girls in there. And is she a vampire, anyway?
What a load of old nonsense, but you can see the video here: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=X86S5oZzzh4
Potential Break Up Song
[Insomniatic]
Fast, funky and frenetic track from two incredibly hot blonde babes with a brilliantly fun video.I hope they go far (especially if it’s as far as my front door… but not while I’m out, since that wouldbe rather a pisser)
feat. Victoria Bergsman:
Young Folks
[Writer’s Block]
Finally my answer has come – THIS is that song with all the whistling. Okay, sothat could make it the Skye Boat Song with Des O’Connor and Roger Whittaker,but if you’re thinking what I’m thinking, then you know which song I’m talkingabout.
[The Reminder]
Cool song with a well-made and choreographed video. Simple concept and carried out brilliantly.
It’s currently being used as backing to the advert for the Apple Fanboy’s Ipod Nano.

[All The Lost Souls]
I wish he *would* go back to 1973.
Click here to see the video
[Unbreakable: Deluxe Edition]
Blimey, a Backstreet Boys song that I actually really like. Fantastic piano throughout, along with clever key changes during the chorus.
A great summer song… so it’s a shame it’s now autumn(!)
Click here to see the video
[Sean Kingston]
No idea what this is about, but it’s not had many good write-ups on Amazon(click on the cover art).
Click here to see the video
She’s So Lovely
[Scouting For Girls]
Love this song, and the hottie in the video is a model called Louise Glover (google for her images, butnot from work!).
See the video here.
In The Air Tonight
[Hits]
Brought back into the charts as a result of a man in a gorilla suit playing the drums, all apparentlyadvertising Cadbury’s Dairy Milk.
Surely, the reason people eat Cadbury’s Dairy Milk is because it tastes yummy and it’s the kind of thing thatused to be played during Miami Vice?
[Black Out]
A dreadful comeback at the MTV Music Awards resulted in a most unsexyperformance and you could tell she didn’t even know the words early on as shecovered her mouth. Pass.
“It’s Britney, bitch”? Very enticing… not!
Click here to see the video
[Changes]
Not a bad track, but they’ve done better. Still, at least it stopped Shayne Wardgetting to No.1.
[Spirit]
Is this what we’ve waited a whole year to hear? She’s left it too late to capitalise on her X-Factor success now that the new contest is underway.
She says she’s spent months in America recording her album with “top producers” but over 10 months after winning the contest, will enough people care?
