Popjustice are usually right, but this surprised me. I downloaded it yesterday after a tip-off on Dirrrty Pop and thought it was bloody awful (The Alcazar track is a bit ripe too. I like one of the ballads best, because I’m an old man). “Refrain” sounds like someone from Dead Ringers ‘penning’ a ‘skit’ about how awful pop music is and I could barely get to the end of it.
(We had Pay-TV’s previous Eurovision entry on PopNose back last March sometime, so if they do become marvellously famous and cool I will delete this entry and say that I was ‘there’. They are a side-project of dance bod Hakan Lidbo, by the way.)
In happier PJ-related news, Rachel Stevens’ “Negotiate With Love” has finally leaked and it’s terrific.
