In true trashy magazine style, here’s a breakdown of what’s giving us a smile and what’s giving us bile, on this lovely Friday afternoon!
Uppers
- New Greatest Hits albums from Shirley Clamp and Lili & Susie contain amazing new tracks. ‘Det Finns Inga Givna Svar’ from Shirley, and ‘Tease Me’ by Lili & Susie.
- BBC Radio 1’s ‘Floorfillers’ show is turning into the scandipop club night. Slowly but surely.
- ‘The Girl And The Robot’ by Royksopp and Robyn has entered the UK top 200 iTunes chart despite the fact it’s not a single yet, it hasn’t been played anywhere yet, and the album only came out on Monday!
Downers
- Velvet‘s album entered the Swedish charts this week at number 44. Come on Swedes, what’s wrong with you?!!!
- ‘Can’t Get Over’ by September has been booted off the Radio 1 playlist this week.
- Susanne Alfvengren still hasn’t entered the Swedish top 60 charts with ‘Du Ar Alskad Dar Du Gar’.
