TOPIC: Lily Allen - The Fear
#41285
Lily Allen - The Fear 16 Years, 4 Months ago  
Does nothing for me.
The mashup with Fleetwood Mac is fun though.
Any Lily fans out there?
What am I missing?

I really like it.

It has a great vibe for 2009. Stick it on the IPOD/MP3 player and walk around Camden Market or some other bustling place and it will make sense


It captures the mood perfectly of now - which for me is the litmus test of good pop. But like all good pop it is and should be throwaway.

Clever lyrics, excellent production and she's got a lovely voice. Love it.

I'm with JK. Does absolutely nothing for me.

Just don't like Lily Allen full stop and I too, wonder what exactly it is I'm missing.

Interesting approximate sales last week

To get a No1 in the UK...

45,600

And No 10?


About 20,000

In my day....

In your day, sales a lot LOWER!

Yes, titles at the top of the charts sold more, but there wasn't the choice or number of releases.

Also, I love the Lily single, and most of the album too - The lyrics are interesting, decent production, and she does have an infectious voice.

Sales are definitely on the up though - three years ago 20k might have got you number 1 these days you're lucky to scrape top 10. 46k is quite low for a #1 at the moment this year it's been nearer 60k on average.

The singles market is starting to look much healthier.
