Dance lessons for boyfriends

Not for mine, obviously.

No, you’re not gonna teach my boyfriend how to dance with me, and no, you can’t stand under my umbrella-ella-ella-eh-eh-eh.

Kate Nash
Kate Nash playing the killer… chord?
After recording Arctic Monkeys’ “Flourescent Adolescent”, my dear Kate Nash decided to transform Black Kids’ “I’m Not Gonna Teach Your Boyfriend How To Dance With You” into… The Nicest Thing (argh! what a horrible joke).

I must confess that the first time I’ve heard Ms Nash last year I didn’t like. “Caroline’s A Victim”. I took at least 3 weeks to get used to the yummy-cakes fan repeating “Killer killer killer killer killer killer beat” and to find it funny instead of weird. After her debut album’s release, “Made of Bricks“, my opinions changed considerably. Probably because, at first, it sounded like a mix and blend (ha-ha, I’m all funny today) of Regina Spektor with Lily Allen. For some reason, I think Kate’s second album will be something totally different. Something totally… KATE NASH, if you know what I mean.

By the way, I heard some rumours about Regina Spektor coming to Brazil in August this year. If so, hope I don’t get too disappointed seeing her live as I got with Lily Allen. Tip of the day: pretending drunkness and forgetting lyrics is definitely not something I appreciate on and off stage.

Also, I need to add that Kate’s dresses are amazing!

I promise I’ll tell you more about Black Kids later. If I’m honest, I don’t know them so well to recommend and I don’t want to read something fast, copy, paste and pretend I’m their biggest fan at the moment.
