But that's what all pop acts are at the moment. It sounds better to my ears than Lady GaGa anyway, who seems like an unholy cross between Scissor Sisters and Marilyn Manson to me, neither of which I liked in the first place. Oh, and I've been playing the La Roux album (or at least the first half of it) a lot the last couple of months, and will probably never play it again after another month. Just as things should be with a good pop album.
I like it too! Loved the singles, took a punt on the album, great stuff. Thought it might be a case of singles good, rest of album not good. The track with the childrens choir is lovely. Wonder what she puts in her hair to get that quiff going? Doesn't look waxy or gelled, hmmmmm.
