Gabriella Cilmi - Sweet About Me (MP3) (Track removed by request - or more like track removed by threatening letter to hosting company from IFPI who obviously don’t like their artists being spoken about on the internet)
Something of a brief interlude to my protracted and unfashionably late review of 2007 by way of the song that was playing on the radio as I awoke this morning.
Those of you who don’t live in an insane musical bubble like me and are actually aware of the world of music that exists outside of a select few record shop weekly mail-outs, very few blogs, non-playlist radio and recommendations from friends might already be aware of Gabriella Cilmi . For my fellow dwellers within gloriously shimmering musical worlds of their own creation here’s a sweet little jazzy soul pop number with some genuine old-fashioned charm all the way from “the outside”.
But please, whatever you do, don’t check-out the video as she manages to thoroughly ruin things with her many and varied affectations*, and the more we try to forget (but can never forgive) her insipid and truly awful cover of Martha & The Muffins ‘Echo Beach’ the better (insert sound of shuddering).
*I said DON’T!
