LILY ALLEN: Littlest Things (2006) Single review
Rating: 4/5
Being a decent artist and releasing a single this close to Christmas must be a bit like spending hours meticulously crafting a beautiful model Titanic from scratch and then launching it into a vast ocean of shite. Unless, that is, you've already achieved the stature of Lily Allen and have a reasonable chance of avoiding being scuppered en route to whatever charts matter these days by the menacing 'shiteberg' of another fucking boy-band ballad. This melancholy number about a break up is probably my least favourite song off the brilliant Alright Still and still pisses from a great height on almost anything else out there. Plus the content's probably a fairly good seasonal marketing move what with everyone getting drunk and emotional and all. Anyway as long as it kicks Take That and bastard Girls Aloud into touch it'll have done its job.
