What is it with this girl!?

Seriously - am I the only one who finds her music completely bland dross?

Her voice is irritating, her videos are boring, the music is monotonous and the 80s want her hair back.

I really do not understand what everyone seems to see in her and I'm frankly staggered to discover that she's been nominated for the Mercury Music Prize!

No you're not. I cannot stand her horrible, toneless, irritating voice. She's utter garbage.

Inane nonsense lyrics played at halfspeed over some samples that the Human League binned.

Not my type of music, however the songs do work really well in clubs/bars.

I actually quite like Bulletproof and In For The Kill (although it's mainly Skreamy's Let's Get Ravey Mix I prefer rather than the original). Sure, it's not fantastic music but it's good enough to listen along to.

It's Bulletproof that does it for me. It's literally her saying the line "Next time bay-bee I'll beee-ee-eee-eeeee Bulleeeeeht-proof" about 100 times over the top of some totally garbage background muzak. She's infuriating and she has crap hair.
