she was just 22

A fellow 22-year old fringed brunette girl has finally caught my eye on her second album. Lily Allen's newest album It's Not Me, It's You is poppy, catchy, blunt and extremely well written; her lyrics especially stand out on this album. From very straightforward bed-time disappointment in 'Not Fair:'

There's just one thing that's getting in the way
When we go up to bed you're just no good, it's such a shame
I look into your eyes, I want to get to know you
And then you make this noise and it's apparent it's all over
It's not fair, and I think you're really mean
I think you're really mean, I think you're really mean
Oh you're supposed to care that you never make me scream
You never make me scream...

Another favorite is the Marilyn Monroe Some Like It Hot sound of 'He Wasn't There'

With her sweet, girly voice and strong British accent, you almost don't realize you're singing along about lying in the wet patch, ex-wives, and Chinese food. She's beautiful, talented and writes exactly the way girls feel. I knew girl power would never go out of fashion.
