Hurrah!

The New Annie Single Sleeve - Very Cute & Girly (songs not bad either)


The lovely Annie has finally posted a clip of her first (post-Island Records) single "Anthonio" on her Myspace which will be released on May 4th on Richard X's new label "Pleasure Masters".It really is rather gorgeous, following on from the "Songs Remind Me of You" aspects of the (unreleased) Don't Stop era rather than the Xenomania tinged tracks such as My Love Is Better. This is not to knock Xenomania's efforts in this regard but at times their style of production seemed a little too harsh next to Annie's gentle, breathy vocal style. Richard X will always be Quincy Jones to her Michael Jackson I feel...

Beautiful Robots Dancing Alone...

So according to Popjustice, the third single to be taken from Girls Aloud's current album Out of Control is to be announced fairly soon. Hurrah!

PJ have already expressed their rejection of a possible of a radio edit of the epic "Untouchable" which i kind of agree with cos it is a pretty spectacular, swirlingly amazing 6 minutes and 43 seconds of electro loveliness which contains the timeless couplet,

'Without any meaning, we're just skin and bone,
Like beautiful robots dancing alone'

...and would lose any emotional impact by being chopped and changed into a neat, 3 minute and 30 second package.

There has been talk of "Love Is The Key" or "Rolling Back The Rivers in Time" making the cut, but in my opinion that'd be a bit of a step backwards after the heartbreakingly beautiful, Pet Shop Boys produced "The Loving Kind".

In my opinion it's gotta be either "Turn To Stone", or MAYBE "Miss You Bow Wow" despite the idiotic title, simply because i will now always associate the song with the drag show at The George and the fact that the DJ there played Little Boots, Annie, Frankmusik AND Girls Aloud one after the other therefore making him/her the GREATEST DJ IN THE WORLD.

Fact.

Girls Aloud - Untouchable
