Ever heard of Lily Allen?

I really love her songs, her WHOLE album "Alright, Still" is awesome. She's something definitely new, I've never heard something like this and I'm not disappointed at all. She's been known through myspace and she's the daughter of a famous person but I cannot remember who.

She's a 21 year-old girl from the UK so she's probably not that well known in the US, here in France she's the next bomb. Or so I think phew.gif She's cute and she's not trying to act "sexy and hot" like R'n'B singers (I like r'n'b but yeahh.. you get my point). Her music is extremly refreshing and it makes me happy and cheerful. The kind of songs you'd listen to wake you up joyfully n_n

Her style is a mix of different styles : ska, reggae, trip-hop, zouk, pop. And the lyrics are quite funny. But they all talk about something we've lived at least once in our life. Listen to "Knock 'em out" and you'll get what I mean biggrin.gif

My favorite songs :
Smile and Knock Em out.
But honestly they're all GREAT

You guys should definitely listen to it. =)

I dislike her very much.
It's nothing personal, I just find her voice very irritating.
'Sssss-myeeee-ellll' ¬.¬
petit_charat
i like her accent...it's awesome. i probably find it the most amusing cos i'm an aussie....but i've always dreamt of speaking like a pom lol =]
Seraphic_Gin
i loved the first, but i got sick of it after a while..
then she came out with her 2nd single, forgot the title.. and loved it as well!!! she's great..

it's good to have an ecclectic music like hers..like every song she releases is something different..

hey dad is famous-ish. hes keith allen i mean ur only gonna know him if ur behind the scenes in media or if you are a brit. hes not known outside of the U.K. i liked Lilly when she first debuted-you should hear her parody of 'window shopper' its called 'nan your a window shopper'. its funny and shows how good she is with lyrics.

the thing i dont like about Lilly is that shes too outspoken and says things to be relavent, like saying bad things about kylie and madonna, theres no need for that. also her style is oooh so chavvy she wears big chavvy gold hoop earrings and vintage dresses with nike trainers/sneakers.
im sorry but ewww, trainers will never work with dresses. skirts yes but not vintage summer dresses. this irks me. but her album is good and her live performances are getting better and better. lets see how long she lasts.

at work her first single is on one of the cds that they play. so, thats the way i found out about her. but, i havent heard any of her songs on american radio so far. but, i do think some of her songs are catchy.
Jennified
I had the song 'Smile' in my iPod for a while. It was alright, and her accent is awesome, like someone mentioned. But her voice made me sleepy after a while.

Yeah! Why don't radios play itt.. >.<'' But then again, it probably would get overplayed, haha.
But her 'Smile' video made it on TRL! So I guess that kinda counts. I heard about her from TRL smile.gif

波斯猫
idk about her music, but i don't like her as person. she's always making fun of her celebrities for attention.
starstrewnnight
I saw her on SNL and loved her performances. Got her cd right when it came out (7 bucks at Target!! biggrin.gif). She's like the Corinne Bailey Rae opposite (I love Corinne more though).
w4termelon

yeah too bad lily allen thinks corinne bailey rae's music is "boring". she really does hate on everyone! but i do like a couple of her songs.
blue_electric
i love her british accent biggrin.gif my dad bought her cd a couple weeks ago. you'd think the lyrics would be optimistic cause the music is all upbeat. haha
dubplo2.0
lily allen, shes cute and im loving her style. the beats on her album are pretty choice. though i hate when ppl compare her to lady sov. their completely different yet talent british women.
yourfinestwine
I loveeeeeeeee Lily Allen. She is amazing, super funny
and a great singer. I love how she writes all her songs;
so much talent! happy.gif I actually went to her first concert
in Florida YESTERDAY! Was soooo awesome. I
was actually right up front, as in like I could reach out
and grab her shoes! Rofl she is super short and totally
messy. her hair was tied like w.e, she was smoking
like the entire time and she had a few shots in between
songs. she's famazing loll I might post some pics I took
later (:

Lets_Be
I love her music. i just found out about her recently. I really want her c.d. now
Korowa
I'm liking her album, I thought it was hilarious how she covered 50 Cent's Window Shopper and put her own spin on it. Also a lot of her songs were produced by Mark Ronson, who's an awesome producer in my opinion.
~Shelly~
Omg I HATE Lily Allen songs. Her voice annoys the hell out of me. She's so chavvy and eugh... Sorry I really do hate her and I have seen her perform live and it STILL annoyed me. She's just so gobby and pretty much like the girls in my school. ¬_¬"
MissMonika
I love her. She's not afraid to speak what's on her mind. I admire people with guts like that. And her songs are hilarious.
&anita_*
I really love her music! her song "smile" is greaaaat and catchy too. i love her <33
kkkkk
littlest things got me into her.

because i dont pay too much attention to the media and gossips i dont know about her being mean.

her music still works. just give her a try people!
ima_robot

=D i love her style too. she wears like sb dunks & dress! SOOO COOL!
masterpiece
She's awesome. I love her!
*.:StarryEyeSurprise:.*
she REALLY REALLY REALLY annoys me
orange momo
I love Lily Allen, I am surpsied that she is starting to get so popular in the States. She's very blunt and different.
yonheet55
lily allen is soo great!! i actually went to see a live show of hers in the states, and i have to say that she has a hilarious personality, i think you can catch one of her live concert on www.npr.org if it's still up.

anyways, i thought when first listening to her album, that she really didn't have a voice, and she was virtually rap/singing during most of it. turns out she does have a great voice, she did sound a bit different, but she could still sing! and she was entertaining during her show!

iheartporn
I don't really listen to Lily Allen, but everytime I hear her voice I'm like I have to download one of her songs.
inadequate
I love her.. her songs and that crazy-attitude she owns smile.gif
She looks really sadistic in the "Smile" MV haha!
"Littlest Things" is one of my fav. songs from her album. Though her CD's great overall.
INSANE
my friend introduced me to her. and i think her songs are okay. i like "Smile" and "Littlest Things" the best.
love.is.red
she has fun music and i like the lyrics.
Pink*
"Smile" has got to be one of the most annoying songs I have ever heard. She also irritates me very much.
