ie unlike all these other middle aged dylan moran worshipping jamie oliver cooking non gig going non fun having dixks above me, i can open my ears and enjoy some of teh most original lyrics and best sounds coming out of a young person in ages.

Having said that, she's totally sold out grime, and thank god for that.

Ah now, I like both Dylan Moran and Sov! ;)

It's different. And I think the song's well known enough that people will know it's not original Lady Sov or whatever.

I'm not middle aged. I don't worship Dylan Moran. I can open my ears, she butchered a song that I like very much.

She's a terrible, terrible artist.

Not sure how I feel about this... the problem I have is that no one will take the time to realize it's a classic song just being sampled. I usually like Lady Soverign alright but this seems to be quite a disgrace of a Cure sample. Production wise it's well done though. Her flow however doesn't sit very well on the bouncy synths.

i don't like rap so therefore do not enjoy Lady Sov but i enjoyed this quite a bit. i thought it was fun use of sampling of a fun cure song and a cute fun video. if she did more songs like this that sounded less like 12 year old boy rap music i would probably like her.

i dunno it's not too bad... but that might be because it HAS the cure sampled?
im not saying it's better than close to me (obviously) but.. it could be worse :P
