Aggro Santos?

I think it sounds like a rip-off of Under The Bridge anyway.

And I can't understand a word she says.

Fraser you have posted the wrong video to the song , buddy .

Fraser wake up ! Before Oddie gets here . . .

I actually really like this, though the video is really cringe-worthy, trying far too hard love!

And I agree with Spiveym, what the heck is she saying?

Well, I can't say I'm a Vickers fan. Possibly because for the duration of her stint on the X Factor I couldn't go a single day without at least one person going to me "You look just like Diana Vickers!" which became incredibly annoying. Almost as annoying as her voice. Although not as annoying as her hands.

However, I was pleasantly surprised by her performance of this on Sunday night. I'd not given the track a listen prior to the show and I have to say whoever wrote it did a blimmin' good job of working with her vocal ticks and making them sound deliberate instead of silly. I also thought the performance was great, far superior to Katy Perry's.

Hi Olivia, I've seen you here a few times. If you want, you can come and join us for general music discussion whenever you like over on the Jedward thread on this page

Also, the topical posts box at the bottom of this and every page here tells you what threads have been posted in last. Cheers :)

So Oliviaaa looks like Diana Vickers . I am sure some will see this as a blessing .

Well maybe if she becomes properly successful I can scrap further education and become a professional lookalike haha. Come on Diana, make me proud to be your doppelganger >:(

spirit... I'm not sure I understand? :L

Anyhoo. 5 STARS. And you all now how much I dislike the idea of Diana Vickers so she must've done something right with 'My Wicked Heart'.

Oh, and I may cause controversy with this following comment but at least it'll stimulate chat:

I cannot abide the Red Hot Chili Peppers. And 'My Wicked Heart's chorus is a development (musical term) of the chorus, it's not a sample.

Yeah at 4 , the moment has gone . Fraser made another mistake but rectified it by the time you arrived . The video for this review was originally Aggro Santos . You would have been angrier than Alex Ferguson in hair drier mode ! ;)

Oh right! :) I don't think I was here yesterday because I was on a Drama Trip to Salisbury Playhouse, we watch 'Punk Rock' and 'Death and the Maiden'. It was a great day out but unfortunately there was this niggling thought in the back of my head that meant I couldn't enjoy the plays fully, because I knew I'd have to write and essay on both during the half term. But the point is, I only got back at my house at midnight, so I didn't go on my laptop; just went to bed! And then I had to get up in six hours (after the 18 hour day) to get ready for Sixth Form!

SUCKS to be me!

Random Bit:

The new Black Eyed Peas song is awful. Just though I'd warn you here because I can't be bothered to sift through the Jedward pages. ;)

However this song ('My Wicked Heart') is brilliant. ITE?

Sounds like yesterday , you were a bit of a drama queen ! lol . Hope your work is going well .

Fantastic song. I do think she needs a different record label and management however. She's not promoted enough and videos leave a lot to be desired (though the one for this is a drastic improvement on her last two). She's a lot more credible than what they make of her. And to be honest, Red Hot Chili Peppers can stop complaining. Yeah the chorus bears a slight resemblence, but it's hardly the same song at all, is it? I love Under The Bridge but it's not like they invented the chord sequence. This whole plagarism thing is abused by bands in my opinion, some get so greedy.

It is great to read your comments again Moz , you have been gone TOO long .

@ 12

Woah! When you said the new BEP song was bad I didn't expect it to be that bad, I was expecting Boom Boom Pow level of bad e.g: bad but in a wierdly charming sort of way. This is just obnoxious though, the only catchy bit is from Dirty Dancing and the whole backing track just feels like a collection of previously released songs. Disappointed.

Exactly, Harry, it truly is awful. If they think they can do another 'Boom Boom Pow' with that then I'm sorry; 'Bom Boom Pow' grew on me but this... this is dire.

The part where whichever one of them says "dirty bit" is just annoying! And the music section sound like it's trying to charm a cobra. No thank you.

Thanks Spirit :)

I need to hear this BEP track now, you people have me excited for it. BEP haven't been the same since Monkey Business in my opinion. Seems they keep going in a downward spiral in terms of quality

There you go MozFoz.

Don't forget to get back to us with your thoughts. :)

I love the video to this, and as Fraser points out, it's the wackiness we were all promised from Diana so long ago. She looks great in it too... if she isn't careful she could end up being this years Little Boots for Thranjax...

As for the similarity to Under the Bridge, well yes, it has some similarity, but I don't think there's enough use of the hook for the Peppers to really complain. I know they are considering action, but frankly I doubt it was that original to start with.

The BEP track is a lot like the stuff on the E.N.D.
Very low quality attempt at music; especially when there's certain parts in the songs that lead you to think that they could have been amazing.
Only I Gotta Feeling reached it's full potential.
It's not totally shocking, but still very bad. It's a shame, because I used to love them.

2 stars.

Really MozFoz? The only track that I could bare to listen to on 'The E.N.D.' was 'Meet Me Halfway'; I'm think I'm still recovering from the over-enthusiastic amount of airplay 'I Gotta Feeling' had.

Anyone else noticed that even though 'I Gotta Feeling' has a contraction in it's title, it's actually one huge grammar mistake?

"Gotta" = "Got to", as in "I gotta go".

The things that make pop music great is all its contradictions . If everyone played by the rules it would be a boring place . Bit like the time I saw a sign outside a shop that said " WATCH BATTERIES FITTED . " I went in and it was the most boring hour of my life . ;)

Translation :
'Waaaa waa wa waaaaaa waaaa wa waaaaa!'
Or
'Oh my wicked heart!'

Every single professional review I have read of "My Wicked Heart " mentions Under The Bridge by The Peppers !

That is all .

:O! I don't mention it!

I like to feel professional.

That is all. :L:L

Guess what?
THE BRIDGE!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH!
