Today I decided to take a trip downtown to hit up the library for some new music. Great idea I thought until I hit traffic. Here in Minnesota they are right in the middle of some major road work which has slowed everything down considerably. Most of you know of our recent bridge collapse and now it seems like it is always rush hour, even at 10 in the afternoon. As I sat in traffic I began to compare the cars around me to the music that was playing on my radio. It became a... MORE

I find Lily Allen refreshing and fun, and have been lately playing this album to get me going on washing the dishes. (Because I am quite possibly the last North American householder to be still doing ALL THE FUCKING DISHES BY HAND.) Ahem. Excuse me. Back to Lily, well, honestly the accent wears on me after a while, although I don't like to criticize anyone too strenuously considering that I have personally long ceased to create art of any kind. However, Lily has plent... MORE
"I've been thinking that you've crossed the line, if you disagree well that will be just fine, cos you waste my time and waste my money and your not too cool and your not so funny! Spreading your seed all over the town getting too greedy and messing around: Oh my gosh you must be joking me if you think that you'll be poking me. Ddon't take me ooon Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know, Don't try to deny cos my fuse is ready to blow Its your turn to learn... MORE

Still in Los Angeles, I’m driving down Sunset the other night. (It’s something that I find myself doing a lot while in SoCal, because of the boulevard’s proximity to my lodgings.) After a random scan, I’ve absent-mindedly left the radio on Star 100-something, one of the ubiquitous stations running the so-called “Hot Hits” format. And what do I hear, to my surprise, but Lily Allen’s “Smile” bouncing out of the speakers I’m getting a nice groove on as I swing west down t... MORE
if you haven't had the chance to yet, check out Lily Allen smile-although I've heard the song before, I never payed attention until I saw the video-completely hilarious and cheeky...many think she's a joke and a fake, but whatever, I like her, and I think her storytelling way of writing (whether its her or not) are refreshing. Check her out if you haven't yet, mostly check out the lyrics to Smile. Cute in a sado-masochistic sort of way :)
Did anybody attend? How was it? Wouldn't you know it the one year they have a stellar lineup and I MOVED!
Serious Journalist: Advertising 2.0 continues to develop with this interesting alliance of Electronic Arts and Lily Allen to promote The Sims. Lily went back in the studio to sing her hit 'Smile' in Simlish, the language of The Sims.
Stoned Hack Music Zine Journo: Lily Allen always wrote crap lyrics.
i didn't want to like her. especially after reading about those weird "i hate myself and i want to die because im fat"-esque posts on her myspace.. and finding out she's such a shit-talker, bundled in a million different feuds with other celebrities. but i can't help it anymore! her songs are infectious and a refreshing kind of new pop sound. and if you've ever wondered why the spice girls don't sound british when they sing, listen to lily allen cuz she's SO british that...

From The Observer newspaper comes news that Lily Allen has had a run-in with US Immigration while entering the USA from Canada. Crossing from BC into Washingtom at 2AM, US officers stepped on board and confiscated her citrus fruit. Then they asked the tour manager to step off the bus for a word. Officer: "I can smell pot." Tour manager: "There's no point in denying it, though we have just come from British Columbia, where it's decriminalised." Officer: "That is true.... MORE
