chantelle fiddy v lily allen BEEF!

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:07 (twenty years ago)

Lex, i'm sort of blown away by how hilariously trite that story was.

― deej.. (deej..), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:10 (twenty years ago)

i agree, and it's the most interesting l allen-related thing yet

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:13 (twenty years ago)

someone (nb not lily) needs to do an r&b song about it

― The Lex (The Lex), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:14 (twenty years ago)

Maybe it could be Frankee's comeback single?

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:20 (twenty years ago)

omg that Fiddy anecdote is PHUNNNYE!

do you make this shit up for fun ? if youre gonna hate on me , at least speak the truth .Even if your garms were late , I would never say anything like that to anyone . Grow up , wastewoman .

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:36 (twenty years ago)

I really love the assumption of consensus in Fiddy's post that a piece of clothing bought three years ago is automatically out of date, but a piece of clothing bought seven years ago is "vintage" and therefore stylish!

Maybe Miquita wore the seven-year-old jacket three years ago as a hand-me-down from her mate's older sister?

― kit brash (kit brash), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 14:56 (twenty years ago)

Chantelle: i have to pee
lily allen: your jacket is out of style
the internet: omg

― deej.. (deej..), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 15:30 (twenty years ago)

what the hell, this thread. you crazy. you crazy, go BAM!

― Britain's Obtusest Shepherd (Alan), Tuesday, 13 June 2006 15:46 (twenty years ago)

The words "children" and "please" spring to immediate mind.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 06:59 (twenty years ago)

What, do you want her to have your children?

(er... yes, that's the bigger version of the cover art, by the way)

― StanM (StanM), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:13 (twenty years ago)

something wrong with the chin

― jergins (jergins), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:16 (twenty years ago)

What I want is for record companies to use what little sense there is left in their heads and spend their resources on musicians, not jumped-up floozies with influential mates.

If you want to be arrogant, it helps to have something to be arrogant about.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:20 (twenty years ago)

i finally heard 'ldn'.

sounds like third single off jem album.

― Seriously, Try Punching This Guy in the Face and See What Happens (Enrique), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:55 (twenty years ago)

Ah yes, Jem, whatever became of that particular middle-aged record executive fading-libido fantasy?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:56 (twenty years ago)

she was actually quite fit.

― Seriously, Try Punching This Guy in the Face and See What Happens (Enrique), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 07:58 (twenty years ago)

Note the past tense, so soon.

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:01 (twenty years ago)

i doubt she was dropped but people seem to take so long to make albums that she may as well have been.

― Seriously, Try Punching This Guy in the Face and See What Happens (Enrique), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:25 (twenty years ago)

She's on exchange with Beth Orton. Beth is swapped in, Jem is swapped out.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:36 (twenty years ago)

i still like 'They'

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:44 (twenty years ago)

Beth's recent stuff hasn't exactly been my cup of Cresta, but she's in a completely different league, even if only because I fancy her like mad... ;-)

(sigh MC you're just as bad as the rest, face up to it)

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:44 (twenty years ago)

i like the opening two bars of 'they' before jem starts singing.

― The Lex (The Lex), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:49 (twenty years ago)

I quite like "It's just a ride" in the irish sense.

The video for "Wish I" was bizarre: basically, couple on a tropical beach getting married and it's all nice and flowers and beds at sunset on the beach and all that. Which is fine, but the song is about someone departing for a long time and the girl wishes she was going to. i.e. nothing to do at all with the video.

― mark grout (mark grout), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:52 (twenty years ago)

when is Chantelle Fiddy releasing a single anyway?

― Konal Doddz (blueski), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:53 (twenty years ago)

Alright, Still is fucking excellent. It took this long into the year to get a single great album?

― David Orton (scarlet), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:58 (twenty years ago)

No, the Broken Social Scene album came out here right at the beginning of January.

No relation, I take it?

― Marcello Carlin (nostudium), Wednesday, 14 June 2006 09:00 (twenty years ago)

Alright, I just got my hands on the LP and I gotta ask, what's with the shitty re-recorded version of "Knock 'Em Out" on the LP?

And what the FUCK happened to, "AIDS! AIDS! I've got AIDS!"?!?!?! It's... GONE!!

― Mr. Snrub (Mr. Snrub), Sunday, 18 June 2006 01:50 (twenty years ago)

I love Knock 'Em Out! I have a copy of the LP with the re-recorded version on it, I suppose. Is the original version that much more different?

― musically (musically), Sunday, 18 June 2006 03:03 (twenty years ago)

I saw the 'Orange phones present the download and ringtones sponsor.." programme. It has some music on it. Anyway, this prog the one she 'complains' about on her blog.

Interviewer in 'slides reference to her dad in an interesting and novel way' shokkah. Lily says 'cunt' as part of her answer.

― mark grout (mark grout), Monday, 19 June 2006 07:37 (twenty years ago)

Ehhh, apart from the fact that she pushes my "you annoy me" buttons almost as much as BB Sezer (i.e. all attitude and no charisma), she's okay I guess. I still don't think the songs have much to hang on to -- they sort of exhaust their interest after two or three listens. The beats are slack. The samples are a bit Elvis Costllo Does Young People's Music. The lyrics are 14-year-old-boy-puerile, and not in a good way.

― Chuck_Tatum (Chuck_Tatum), Monday, 19 June 2006 16:37 (twenty years ago)

Am I the only person who thinks that Lily Allen (on first listen, albeit) sounds like a multi-cult-schooled Fiona Apple? (Granted, I haven't really registered any of the lyrics so that probably kills my argument stone-cold dead. But sonically, though...)

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Saturday, 24 June 2006 18:41 (twenty years ago)

They are both white girl singers, phil, and that's about it.

― Jerry the Nipper (Jerrynipper), Saturday, 24 June 2006 20:58 (twenty years ago)

don't know what school either of them went to.

― Roughage Crew (Enrique), Saturday, 24 June 2006 21:40 (twenty years ago)

Fiona Apple is GREAT! (one key difference between her and allen)

― The Lex (The Lex), Sunday, 25 June 2006 13:44 (nineteen years ago)

Went out to fill up the car w/petrol last night, Radio 1 was playing "Smile" which faded into "LDN". I went to pay for petrol, and when I got back in, "Alfie" was just finishing.

Overkill?

I assume this single will be number one immediately it's out.

― mark grout (mark grout), Monday, 26 June 2006 07:34 (nineteen years ago)

Added to my folder: evidence supporting immediate abolition of the BBC no. 395821.

― alext (alext), Monday, 26 June 2006 07:36 (nineteen years ago)

I love "Everything's Just Wonderful": handclaps, ba-ba-bas, an early Cardigans vibe, plus she sounds like a delinqent Annie.
Fuck, I love Lilly like I love Annie.

― David Orton (scarlet), Monday, 26 June 2006 09:35 (nineteen years ago)

Cardigans is an oddly fitting reference point actually!

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Monday, 26 June 2006 09:36 (nineteen years ago)

what are these "white girls" of which you speak?
admittedly, as i said, that was a one-listen judgement. but something about the everything-goes musical inclusivity of allen's production suggested apple to me - especially "shame for you." perhaps only that song, but whatever...

― philip sherburne (philip sherburne), Monday, 26 June 2006 11:27 (nineteen years ago)

I just found out "Smile" was produced by Manchester drum 'n bass outfit Future Cut (search: "Overload" [Renegade Hardware 2000], if memory serves me well). I wonder if they've done the rest of the album as well.

― JoB (JoB), Thursday, 29 June 2006 14:00 (nineteen years ago)

Future Cut, Greg Kurstin, Pablo Cook, Blair Mackichan and Mark Ronson is the list of producers.

― David Orton (scarlet), Thursday, 29 June 2006 14:11 (nineteen years ago)

Oh, I just got that "LDN" single, £2. Which was nice.

― mark grout (mark grout), Thursday, 29 June 2006 14:13 (nineteen years ago)

Blair? I know him...

Lily's TOTP appearance. Quite charming.

― David Orton (scarlet), Thursday, 29 June 2006 15:03 (nineteen years ago)

morelike "Lily Allen - This summers biggest chin?", amirite?

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Thursday, 29 June 2006 15:31 (nineteen years ago)

No.

This here's an interview by Britain's Biggest Thicko, Steve Jones, on Transmission. In it Lily Allen manages to call her "Baywatch Babe snogger" interviewer a twat, calls Geldof a cunt and a sanctimonious prat, and admits her dad is a wanker.
Usual 'my favourite colour is blue, buy my single' pop chat, then.

Alright, Still is fucking excellent. It took this long into the year to get a single great album?
-- David Orton (pashernate...), June 14th, 2006.

Apart from Nelly Furtado, Camille, El Perro Del Mar and The Knife, that is. Obviously.

chinny reckon?

― David Orton (scarlet), Friday, 30 June 2006 15:26 (nineteen years ago)

OMG you go Chantelle and Collins! Neither girl would concoct such an exchange from thin air.
