NEW: "Air Balloon" - LILY ALLEN


The gorgeous and eloquent Lily Allen returns with the second single from her pending third LP and she does it in a way you'd expect after such a cutting and aggressive first single: lite, fluffy and delicious.  I'm definitely a fan.  I can't wait to see what the rest of the album sounds like: 

New LILY ALLEN Song/Video

Lily Allen has returned and done so in the only way she knows how: cleverly and provocatively.  She's simply superb, and even though I do not love the auto-tune (it's a bit cacophonous) I appreciate what she's trying to convey with it.  She is a viciously sharp talent and it is glorious to have her back.


WELL DONE!

I can't wait for the new record.

essential tuesday: "chinese" - lily allen (doctor rosen rosen remix)

Sometimes, upon falling out of myself, I think about how I want the stability of a long term relationship and a life relaxed in its own same solidity. Until that day happens, I have this song I listen to all the time to remind of what that may feel like. This remix is so fucking stellar. It is simply joy.

essentials: lily allen remixes

Lily Allen is such a raw, interesting talent. She may not be a power vocalist, but she does have wit in her lyricism, a bold way of carrying herself as a singer and celebrity, and has yet to produce anything that I would blatantly call excrement. She, like a few others in her pop-generation (namely Dragonette, Marina & the Diamonds, and Little Boots), is what popular music should be in America, but probably never will.

Here are a few of my favorite remixes of hers that make me smile every time I push play. From the energetic (and pretty much amazing) remix of Not Fair, to the introspective, silky re-working of I Could Say, I very much consider these essentials for any fan of quality musical renovation.
