The salient points


  • The Ting Tings are literally Katie White and Jules De Martino who both sing and play instruments and things like that.

  • The band's debut album was certainly 'quite good'.

  • Their best song is 'Shut Up And Let Me Go', which is completely fucking amazing.

  • They also had a song called 'That's Not My Name' which you may have heard at some point during 2008.

  • Their second album was very nearly incredibly brilliant, but then wasn't.

  • The less incredibly brilliant one limped into the charts at number 23.

  • It certainly wasn't helped by the fact that they told anyone who would listen that they didn't want to be successful.

  • We careful what you wish for, etc.
