The new Olly Murs single isn't exactly up there with the last one

  • October 13, 2010
  • Popjustice

There is a point, about 26 seconds into Olly Murs' new single 'Thinking Of Me', when you will probably think to yourself "the lyrics to this song cannot get any worse".

Well you are in for a shock. Because just four seconds later you will hear a pop lyric so bad that that it might actually stop your heart. THIS SONG COULD KILL YOU.

[youtube]VcS3PSvFe8A[/youtube] If you are still alive after the first chorus, you're in luck. And if you are not dead by the time the song grinds to a halt a couple of minutes later, con­grat­u­la­tions, because you have survived 2010's worst pop record. Do you know what, though? We cannot wait for the video. We've no idea what happens in it, but we've got an inkling that  if it's anything like the song itself it will be one of the most tra­gic­ally amazing video treats of the year.
