Poptastic! : Lily Allen, Nelly Furtado, David Mead

Here are songs to make you smile! Unless you see your life as unending black bitter torment only occasionally relieved when you stop to drink the blood of infants, in which case they may only make you twitch a little.



First off is the appropriately named "Smile" by Lily Allen. Go here and download it now. "What can I say? I can't resist fun, summer-y pop made by pretty girls," says someone named Matt. You and me both, my friend. And speaking of pop by pretty girls, go here for "Glow" by Nelly Furtado, produced by Timbaland. "Are you fucking serious?" raves Rollie. "BRZZZZZZZZT that synth just gave me freezer burn... Can anyone agree that Timbo is like 20 years ahead of anyone else producing pop music today?" Let's see hands! Up in the air like you just don't care! Finally, go here for "Chatterbox" by David Mead, who is not a pretty girl, but has his good points anyway. "This is pretty much the most ridiculously infectious and happy pop song I have heard in a while," saith Ms. Browne. Woo, say I, followed immediately by hoo!

I downloaded two of those songs last week and yes, I concur they are fantastic. "Chatterbox" especially.

Bravo, my friend. Bravo.

I know David Mead is super but was that really the best picture you could get?

Not many people are aware of David Mead's side career as a luchador -- El Hijo del Mead-o, the terror of the Mexican wrestling scene! His power moves are legendary. Besides, I got lazy after sifting the Net for cute pix of Lily Allen and Nelly Furtado. Those who want to see David Mead without the mask can go here.
