Annie – I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me
Four years ago Annie came into our hearts with the sexiest song about bubble gum ever with her hit song “Chewing Gum.” But, the problem with a lot of the electro pop stars out there is that this song could of easily been released back on her debut album “Anniemal.” I will be honest the songs got a great hook and a very slamming little beat mustard up by the legendary Richard X. Annie also sings in this quiet higher pitched vocal than she did on her previous albums. The song still has the charm and sex appeal that Annie delivered on her debut album. I just hope the album will give us a little more variety and mixture.

Guillemots – Annie, Let’s Not Wait
Guillemots have not disappointed in the singles game “We’re Here” “Made Up Love Song” and “Trains To Brazil” were all top tunes. But given “Annie” is the fourth single off the album it just fails to meet the standards set by the other tunes or does it? The first two and half minutes of the song are just so cheesy. Yet, if you give the tune some time it develops into something so wacky by the end. The last minute or so you expect to see Fefe dancing in a conga line during the video. Musically, its one of the most interesting track they have done calling in on all of the rich influences that makes up the band. Lyrically, it won’t smash any barriers but I believe ever word out of Fefe’s mouth and he does so much with so little. Let’s take a look at the last few lines
