4/5

BUY DOWNLOADY'know what, f**k it. This is great.
'Stella' was an abomination, but this is a tasteful, action-packed ramble of great vocals and a catchy melody. It could be Soko played at the wrong speed, its bridge is to the tune of The Banana Splits for crying out loud, and our heroine shows off a voice that could make nails on a chalkboard sound like Chris Rea, in a good way I mean.
It's a brilliantly booming pop song that rattles the pelvis into motion; it orders satisfaction of the highest dance degree and leaves you battling with the living room rug. It's bound to get annoying the twentieth or so time you hear it, but until it does, you can easily go with it and enjoy every second of a pop song that's just extraordinary to stamp along to. It's cheap, it's tacky and gosh don't we just love it for it.
