Marina & The Diamonds - Hollywood

[James]

Why do I love this song? I really don't know, it doesn't fit the kind of music I normally listen to, but there's something really addictive about the song.

Perhaps the fact that its yet to make it onto Spotify, or perhaps that Marina has a very unique voice, I honestly don't know.

Either way, I had to share and see what others think... this group was tipped for big things for 2010, and this release is a great start, although the theme maybe designed to grab a few easy US sales!

If you don't like it to begin with, jump to 44 seconds in (start of chorus)... am I the only one who finds this addictive??

Oops, did I miss the fact that Marina IS now on Spotify... hmm, maybe she's been added since my first post.

Anyway.... Hollywood: spotify:track:4tpBNDfGcKSOBZWYP4Flbv

Also a whole album here too, I'll have a listen and see if there's any other good tracks on there... nothing quite as catchy that I can find yet.

Yeah its an OK song at best but it does sound a little Eurovisiony...not the best thing someone can say about an artist.

Maybe I am being far too harsh I dont know I will see if it grows on me. It also highlights another problem with Spotify. Normally I would give a song several plays before I made a decision, but with so much to choose from I just move on to another track without a thought!

I bet I am not the only one!
