Lily Allen - Alright, Still
She is the daughter of actor/comedian Keith Allen and film producer Allison Owen. Allen created a MySpace account back in November 2005 to showcase some of her demos and check people's reaction toward her music, originaly the album was set to be released toward the end of 2006 but the increasing intrest & publicity surrounding Allen caused Regal Records to bring forward the release date for the album to july 17. The music on the album is a mixture between Alternative, Ska & Pop creating a Breezy & Amuzing music line, some tracks even sound like airline ads & restaurants with dancefloors in the 60's specially on "Everything's Just Wonderful" where u can hear similar music to the ones on shopping networks. Being the daughter of a comedian you know she must be funny and she does deliver that through her smart lyrics talking about daily issues & situations ppl get themself into such as the sarcastic song "Knock'Em Out" about when guys hit on girls in public & how rude the girls can be on purpose just to get rid of them or on "Alfie" where she sings about her stoned baby brother! Lily's vocals are undeniably easy on the ears with her obvious english accent & the freestylish way of singing.
Tracklist:
01. Smile
02. Knock 'Em Out
03. LDN
04. Everythings Just Wonderful
05. Not Big
06. Friday Night
07. Shame For You
08. Littlest Things
09. Take What You Take
10. Friend Of Mine
11. Alfie
lily is already succesful even though her first single is not officialy released yet, "LDN" was a testing single & only released as a vinyl, the real first official physical single "Smile" will be out in july.
