Ida Maria - Stella (Waterfall/RCA)
2/5
By: Alex Lee Thomson
As much as I believe this track is god-awful, I can feel myself moving towards it; turning the volume up on the radio when it comes on, singing it to myself, y'know, sick sh*t like that. It's painfully catchy and the track's ending, the annoying harp of scratching, tuneless drone, even becomes endearing after a thousand or so listens.
However wonderful the idea that any song with a pleasing enough sound deserves merit, it's not the case, this single unluckily being the car crash answer to the emerging female songster up-rise that was bound to happen. This tight and at times marvellously sung song is an utter blot on credible and far more moving vocalists.
