Is there something morally wrong about McCain using Brittany Spears & Paris Hilton in his latest Obama attack?
As so clearly stated in the link below “if you put Britney Spears and Paris Hilton in a political ad with Obama, you can almost count on lots of stories and TV news broadcasts, and don’t have to spend a lot of money.”
A 70 year old man just painted his opponent as irresponsible by knowingly attempting to equate him with two young women in their early 20′s who are most well known these days for their life choice mistakes. McCain held two young women up for further ridicule for political gain.
In the past a politician might point at spears and company as why we should be moral and dedicated to being supportive elements to our wives, sisters, and daughters — but isn’t it a new level of bad taste to get political gain at an innocent female bystander’s expense?
In my youth, old men who took advantage of young women were called pimps or molesters, they weren’t called American heroes, regardless of what they may have done in the military. I am very disappointed in John McCain.

SKY FERREIRA – One
WARNING: This pop gem will be filed neatly in your ‘Guilty Pleasure’ file. Sky Ferreira is a 18-year-old kid who has written songs for some girl called Britney Spears and used to hang around with some geezer called Michael Jackson. Grrrr we so wanted to hate the little brat!
One is electropop and is a brilliantly robotic (which sometimes sounds like the record has got stuck) short and instantly likeable pop tune. You will dance the robot in your bedrooms…but then you’ll need a bath after feeling a bit dirty for doing so. Pop music CAN be pretty damn good sometimes. But have Electric Banana gone completely nuts? Will we look back on this selection of ‘Single of the Week’ with shame? One would hope not.
Rated 4 out of 5
HURTS – Wonderful Life
Manchester band Hurts are reviving British synth-pop, a genre that’s been long-gone since the terrible days of shoulder pads! Sure, Hurts don’t come dressed like your Aunt Edna like their musical heroes, but rather a slick, full-suited look mixed with a hint of (gulp) Bros!
Having raped the 1980s completely, they should surely be given a 1 star out of 5 review and be told to “do one”? Wrong. Sure, the snobby critics will give it a tough ride, but with a video directly out of Robert Palmer school of 1980s sexism combined with classic sultry electro, we just couldn’t bring ourselves to give it a mighty rollicking.
Rated 4 out of 5
BRANDON FLOWERS – Crossfire
Killers’ frontman Brandon Flowers dips his toe into the solo waters with his first single. Taken from his upcoming album Flamingo, Crossfire is Flowers “playing it safe” with the signature Killer sound – soaring vocals, 80′s rock influences and heavy bass.
The track starts off with the aformentioned nice heavy bass-line, but then sadly launches into an early 90s Bon Jovi track tribute during the chorus. However, for Killers’ fans and people who like to hear their music in big stadiums, then I suppose this ticks all the right boxes. It just needs something extra to make sure Flowers’ solo career is going to flower.
Rated 3 out of 5
BIFFY CLYRO – God and Satan
Dave Grohl, the former Nirvana drummer has always exhibited a fine ear for enormous pop hooks, and with the Foo Fighters has enjoyed considerable chart success. Here he continues to….hang on a flippin’ minute, this is Biffy Clyro! Our apologies.
Oh how we jest with you! This is soft acoustic plucking and strumming that is a far departure from Biffy’s original raw stuff and has added strings that will have the band’s old fans holding their poor heads in their hands. Bless them. Quite nice with rubbish lyrics, but just don’t use the term “commercial sell-out b*stards” in front of Simon Neil – as he will rip your throat out. Probably.
Rated 3 out of 5
FREELANCE WHALES – Hannah
Full marks for the name, the New York-based five-piece Freelance Whales had enjoyed a smooth ride into the critics hearts…until their debut album came out and was (quite rightly) harpooned by some journos.
This is all Postal Service/Owl City soft synths and toy box electronica mix with plucked guitar and banjo to keep the songs ticking over with nary a misplaced note. This type of thing was done a lot better by the Postal Service (who still remain critically underrated) back in 2003 – who proved you can make a decent record with a laptop.
Rated 3 out of 5
THE PRETTY RECKLESS – Miss Nothing
Taylor Momsen is a visually exciting 17-year-old actress who portrays the character Jenny Humphrey on television series Gossip Girl. She also does a passable impression of everyone’s favourite female nutjob Courtney Love here.
This one’s loaded with Hole’s rock chick angst and another killer chorus. She may be able to leave the day job if she release stuff like this. Although, the whole angst thing is hard to believe going from a rich and visually exciting teenager. If you can ignore this and are fond of the musical output of Avril Lavigne etc, then you might like it.
3 out of 5
AGGRO SANTOS – Saint or Sinner
From Balham, South London, Aggro Santos’ debut single Candy ft Kimberly Wyatt went straight in at #5 in the UK charts, and remained in the top 5 for 5 weeks, selling in excess of 200,000 records. This offering will only enhance his commercial clout.
The female vocals make this almost passable – but it still sounds like the kind of thing that ruffians who drink Stella in nightclubs and enjoy punching people in the face would enjoy. So, if you are a sinner and like clubbing, then you’ll love a bit of Aggro.
Rated 2 out of 5
TAIO CRUZ – Dynamite
Taio Cruz has written songs for Cheryl Cole, JLS, The Wanted, The Saturdays and McFly. He is still at large and is a major threat to the respectability of British popular music. If you see this man within one mile of a recording studio or any form of musical instrument, then please contact the music police immediately.
The text on the front of the CD really should say ‘Taio Cruz ft. Autotune’, as autotune is smothered all over Dynamite like a rubbish bomb disposal expert. Horrible. Sounds like Usher. Dynamite? More like a wet fire cracker.
