The Wolf reviewing a single?! I know! I'm sorry!
.... but ....
If 'Hollywood' is a taste of things to come then
Maria Lambrini (!!) Diamandis' forthcoming debut
album is something to get excited about.
Mrs Wolf thinks she sounds like Lene Lovich and
she may well be right to some degree.
What can be said about this incandescent slice of
unaffected, memorable and hugely infectious pop
is that Ms Diamandis is onto something.
Her deep, fruity warble and a winning way with words
(and the words are perfectly judged and very funny!)
has whetted my appetite for whatever else is on the way :
"Oh my god, you look just like Shakira
No no, you're Catherine Zeta
Actually, my name's Marina"
(I laughed out loud !!)
Heck! What more COULD you want?!
Great tune, great hook and you can dance to it.
A new contender methinks .... and a Welsh one at that!
Move over Duffy!
:o)
