Songs Of The Week 3

  • July 6, 2007
  • Popjustice

Hello there! In case you missed any of them, here are this week's Songs Of The Day. Booty Luv is the pick of the bunch, FYI.

Friday:
Booty Luv — 'Don't Mess With My Man'
A balls-out tech-disco-house rework of Lucy Pearl's now com­par­at­ively quite boring (com­plaints to the usual address please) hit from several years ago. 
[audio:bootyluv.mp3]

Thursday:
Scott Simon — 'Umbrella'
A good song always shines through.
[audio:umbrellacover.mp3]

Wednesday:
The Go! Team — 'Grip Like A Vice'
Largely ignored lead single from The Go! Team's offi­cially very good new album.
[audio:griplikeavice.mp3]

Tuesday:
Frankie Valli -'Beggin'' (Pilooski re-edit)
It is not a remix, it is a re-edit. This is a very important dis­tinc­tion. NB: Do not expect the 're-edit' of 'The Night' to be any good if they release it as a follow-up — it's shit on a stick.
[audio:beggin.mp3]

Monday:
Stereohookers — 'Dirty Boy'
An awfully-named pop combo have a bash at reworking Rogue Traders' 'Voodoo Child' and come up with something quite good.
