43 –
Various
Almost
2-dozen
mid-year
hits
&
commercial
faves
get
slapped
on the
platter
with
the
“use
of previously
existing
material”
leading
the
pack
–
like
Rihanna’s
S.O.S
(using
the
well-worn
Soft
Cell
Tainted
Love
sample
- at
least
Marilyn
Manson
did
a good
cover
of it),
Black
Eyed
Peas’s
Pump
It,
in fact
Dick
Dale
&
His
Del-Tones
tune
Miserilou
(used
to potent
effect
in Pulp
Fiction),
here
slowed
down
a touch
with
very
little
added
to it
but
a lame
imitation
of the
screams
on the
original
–
disgraceful.
Then
there’s
the
obvious
inclusions:
a Simpson
sister,
Robbie
Williams,
Kelly
Clarkson,
Hilary
Duff,
and
the
Backstreet
Boys.
Pussycat
Dolls
(yawn),
Nelly
Furtado
(whatever),
T-Pain
(who?),
Ne-Yo
(generic).
More
noteworthy
tunes
come
from
local
lads
The
Parlotones,
Pink
ripping
into
the
Stupid
Girls,
Corinne
Bailey
Rae
and
the,
well
frankly
predictable,
yet
good
Coldplay.
And
for
those
who
who
want
more
pop
in various
other
guises,
try
Lee
Ryan,
Jesse
McCartney,
Simon
Webbe,
Fall
Out
Boy,
Damien
Marley,
and
Chris
Brown
on for
size.
