We couldn't quite make our minds up about Ke$ha.
On the one hand, Tik Tok was amazing. On the other, she did, let's face it, completely rip off Uffie's sound. (Of course, if Uffie had actually released anything in the last 2 years instead of sitting around being cool, she might have got there first.)
On the one hand, Ke$ha is the ultimate sleazy 21st Century Madonna-esque pop star. But on the other, songs like the utterly vacuous Blah Blah Blah featuring the so-vacuous-they're-almost-a-hoover 3oh!3, are just too throwaway, brash and meaningless.
However, what settles the argument decisively in the court of Ke$ha is a track snuck in at No. 11, at the end of her album......
Quite simply 'Dinosaur' is the best pop song of 2010 so far. Without resorting to journo cliche, it genuinely sounds like Daphne and Celeste (ask your Dad) on acid. It is incredible. DI, NO, SA, UR a dinosaur. Teach it to your kids.
Please God/RCA Records make this the next single and get Richard Attenborough and/or Sam Neil and at least 10 velociraptors in the video. Can you imagine. CAN YOU IMAGINE.
