Could you imagine Lily Allen and Lady Sovereign meeting
the Bjork of eight years ago, on Celebrity Love Island and
bursting into song after musing over the vagaries attached
to first dates? Kate Nash flits ruggedly between an almost
hip-hop vocal gait and a bland anti-folk one.
The songs builds, as Kate tears into fading romantic flame
with cutting jibes that would make Simon Cowell seem like
a counsellor; "You said I must eat so many lemons, cos I
am so bitter. I said I'd rather be with your friends mate,
cos they are much fitter."
A lobbing piano-led, spring-time backing plain allows this
dark humoured Londoner to stomp over it with cocky
prowess. The old school approach of "when I've got
something to say; I'll just say it, love!" is shamelessly
deployed and it doesn't make bad listening at all.
