M.I.A. Legend: The Begining of No Angels! Part (-1)
Ladies and Gentlemen I am back, don’t hold your breath those because A: it’s silly and B: I’m not sure for how long!
I did however think it was about time to dig out the old legend section and blog about my favourite girl band No Angels! Starting at minus one seeing a they haven’t been formed yet in this clip!
They began life on defunked in the UK but going string in Germany, TV show Popstars! There like the German Girls Aloud.. well they started before girls aloud but no two of them look manly enough to be compared to Hear’say!
Lets just watch this clip and enjoy!
0.02: First up Lucy looking a little bit like a crazy drunk singing in a bus station, yes we’ve all seen/been them! Her voice sound like she’s on a vibrating platform, and the woman to the right of her in blue is clearly too old for a girlgroup! Nice to see Dame Shirley Clamp’s auditioning wearing a stripy top!
Next up Vanessa (Vany). Either she need the toilet bad or she’s actually a wind-up toy. Why are they filming the back of her head? Is that wear her cogs are?
This clip of Sandy makes me laugh so so much! I don’t know if it’s her dragged through a hedge look, the fact she only semi knows what she’s singing yet appears very emotional, or her brilliant hand gestures/sign language.
Here’s my girl.. Nadja! I love this ladies voice! The hand on hip makes her look a little like she’s telling the judges off! Was that Jordan (Katie Price) sitting behind her?
Wow.. here goes the Hippy Librarian looking Jessica. The pretending to be asleep act makes the “For youuuuu” bit even scarier! Demon eyes!
2:13: Watching this clip makes me remember how much I loved Popstars. How they believed getting people to scream over a random old track that wouldn’t last a day in the top 40 would make a great testing ground for a new pop act! Someone shut Jessica up! Vany looks bored as hell and Lucy does her usual ‘crazy’ faces while dressed as half sheep half boy!
2.55: There not trying to be the new Spice Girls honest!
3:15: what the hell is Nadja eating? Is that a whole mango? Who chomps mangos? She’s quite thirsty I would guess!
3:48: Here comes the group dance! Some of the most hilarious Popstars moment occur here!
4:36: Someone needs a new song!
5:00: Cheer Up love!
5:09: Yes she really did make the band! Love the moves though!
6:25: That is the face of “Oh not that song again!” or maybe she’s still trying to get over Jessica!
6:54: Now she’s heard herself! Tears a plenty!
Well the bad were formed and I’ll teach you all about them in the coming blogs!

The Best Of The Rest Of The Melodifest: Jennifer vs Maja
This time its a Too-Cool-For-School OFF!!!
First in the 'don't have a clue what colour her top is' corner we have
Jennifer Brown - Never Been Here Before
First off I'm loving the stage set up! Its retro hotness! The band is classy touch too! The JB at the back on the screen though is a bit much... its not really "Oh 'JB', yeah that stands for Jennifer Brown!"
Why is she wearing gloves made from bin bags? They are horrid!
39secs: Award from the worlds worst crowd sway goes to...
I like the back beat.. really gets me excited about what the chorus might bring!!
52 secs: Shes channeling a bit of old school Eurovision Sandie Shaw there with her impression of a bouncing puppet! Camera cant even keep up.
Pretty chorus, sounds bit off live but on mp3 songs smooth!
Yet more bouncing through singing, feeling a little sea sick. Get a grip woman!
Next up in the white & black corner Maja Gullstrand - Här för mig själv
I wonder if she's wearing an ear piece? If so they've disguised the usually visible black wire well!
Outfit a mix of old school Kylie mixed with 90's barbie, I'm a fan!
17secs: Usual way to start a song by counting yourself down then letting one rip! Made her smile though. Bell tink dance move though wins me back over!
32secs: Look of death! How Dare She walk in front of her!
It looks so beneath her there after, but still slick little walking dance round sequence!
49 secs: Sack her now! How Dare She yawn in front of her!
Loving the chorus, dance and all! Shes so pretty! Roll heads in time guys!
1m 38s: so magical, bravo choreographer!
1m 52s: They all get round to support her, least they're trying to be nice! He holds her lady lumps... then looks at his hand like 'what have I done?' How Dare He!
2m 5s: Bunch of bitches.. shes not that heavy! While her backs turned they over act the back strain from the support move!
Then they start to leave her after the chorus... are they not getting paid for this?
3m 5s: deserves him right for being so nasty, shame she missed though!
Result: All in all song wise hard to compare! both when played as often as I they have been on my mp3 player, start to grow a lot more on me! But seeing as Maja is at least on tune and has the most amazing 90's Kylie dress up outfit on ever, she wins! Amazing dance routine, shame the dancers are so vile to her! She just ahead of her time seeing as there all decked out in 70's gear!
The Best Of The Rest Of The Melodifest: Marie vs Nina
This time its a.... Saints & Sinners OFF!!!
In the white saintly corner Marie Serneholt - Disconnect Me
Someone should really tell her which way the stage is! She has rain at the back and fire looking smoke at the front.. how confusing! Hope that dress is flame proof, though she looks its been made from a swan.
How Holly Valance is this.. how amazing would she be at this!
47 secs.. just pause for sheer hilarity of the gorgeous swashed head back look!
For a girl who was in the A*teens her chorus routine is very poor! She can bust a move, but not tonight!
1m 2secs: Spoke to soon.. amazing move, well actually not by her though so I'm still right!
1m 39secs: Oh no no no! do not cheer one your own song bid way and pretend it wasn't you!
After slow down-lights off moment the 'yeahs' are painful!
2m 50s: I do like a good old clap-a-long!
This works amazing on mp3, sounds hot and fresh! Live its poor, and I keep looking at her because shes stunning and in white, though if you just watch the dancers.. its so much better!
In the Black leather-bound corner Nina Söderquist - Tick Tock
First song to be performed this year, I aw a bit of 'West End Star' so I know this girl has the power of voice. And being in Spamalot she has stage presence, but can she do MF?
OOOOOOOOooooooh Fire!
Least she knows which way to face! "you have been chained to me" I feel as if I will be punished if I disagree! In the name of all that's Swedish I accept! She has crazy eyes.
43 secs: I have a feeling all the men started long haired like the backing singers, but the dancers got to close and she shaved it off, no wonder the singers are hiding in the corner!
54 secs: Wow the stage went crazy! that one second ha more bang in it than all of Marie's! I love the clocks!
1m 24 secs: Drunken aunt at wedding move if ever Ive seen one!
1m 35s: Calm down there Mr stray dancer hand! Love that sequence but he does get a bit too personal!
1m 46s: Haven't mentioned yet how much I love the "very soul of YOOOOU" bit! Love Swedish
2m 35s: Just noticed where the pieces of the rips from Marie's dancers outfits came from! Points off for nasty dancer tactics!
3m 02s: How well timed! "I will explode" and two big blasts come out of her head!
End deserved some big old flames at the front! I know stage is covered in them, but the fronts more dramatic!
Result: This may upset a lot of people but Nina is hands down winner for me! I'm so annoyed she didn't get further, but it was a tough week! She owned the stage unlike Marie I think, and left me spellbound!
Both songs Mp3 wise are magnificent, but Nina's just keeps on building and running along!
Next year either A*teens reunion for MF, or Marie could turn back time and take up the duet offer Agnes gave her seeing as she went straight to the final!
random high notes!
The Best Of The Rest Of The Melodifest: Susanne vs Shirley
This is because I don't wanna repeat myself too much!
As the last of the heats, the second chance round, is on tomorrow night, I thought Id do a round up of those songs which didn't make it but were amazing, yet not enough to make a single post about!
Almost like the Christmas scraps you have after your turkey dinner!
First up... Were having a Ballad-OFF!!!
In the blue corner we have Susanne Alfvengren - Du är älskad där du går
Just pause this bout 16 seconds in.. puzzled me for ages last week as to why she was wearing a handbag?
A nice beaded one, but a plain frock and a handbag? She looks a little high to be honest!
Its kinda creepy being told a story with such none blinking eyes straight at you! Actually that's really creepy, she really doesn't blink much! Its a familiar, but lovingly sang song by someone who looks like they got lost on the way to a Gala dinner and ended up on stage!
3min 4secs: is a very scary moment when her staring face sweeps in out of nowhere, and is watched by herself! Man I'm creeped!
And in the.. em... eh.... other blue corner we have Shirley Clamp - Med hjärtat fyllt av ljus
Dear of dear Dame Shirley of Clamp! wearing Susannes dress, fitted and minus the handbag! I was hoping to be blown away in the first 2 seconds like her previous songs... but nope!
Seriously whats happening in the green room, turn the volume off and watch the whole thing.. shes drunk as a skunk! She never moves on stand either, clear sign of being wasted!
This song is has a hot remix and sounds good as an mp3, just bland in Shirley and MF standards.
2ms 11secs: omg she has such Man hands!
2m 12sec that's the pointing finger of "you just shut it or ill hit you one with my blinging knuckle duster"... I'm scared to say more!
2m 30s: key change kicks in... wind machine makes her dress look like shes got a swim suit under.. not nice look!
2m 55s: She sings "Med hjärtat fyllt Up Yooooours" in broad Scottish! Shes one tough cookie!
Result: I fear for Susanne life by battling them off, she thought she was heading to a slap up meal (planning of coarse to take some home in her handbag, classy girl!). The sheer disappointment of Dame Shirley's song make me have to declare Susanne the winner! Even though Susanne's eyes will haunt me for the rest of my life!

She's So Human... Lady Sovereign
Shes back guys! the funkiest girl rapper is back with a new album and this hot new single! yeah 'got you dancing' was out before, but it really didn't hook me!
This one on the other hand has be cranking up the volume and dancing like a loon!
Her last album was funky in itself, been played many a time on my mp3 player!
I'm expecting high things from her new album after this track.
Not sure bout her new style though... looks a bit 'jump on the Skins bandwagon'!
Also the "doesn't it feel much betta" bit goes on a bit too long for my liking (man I'm picky!)
Anyway ignoring those factors.. im wanted at least top 5 for this ditty form the city!

He Talks Sense... Cookies = Liking
Though i find it seriously freaky that in today society children are world wide images from day dot.. for example baby photos on facebook etc, youtube kids are funny!
Some people film there kids and its actually juts pointless "you'll never get back that minute of your life stuff" in the hope they become the next youtube star. However that video i find mega funny just because he trys so hard to justify himself!

Anne and Maria can Kill Me Tenderly with a song!
The non-qualifying Melodifestivalen hotness of this week is this one by Anna & Maria!
How magnificent! Its epic to every degree!
The girls in boxes, though reminiscent of Ukraine last year (Maria must have taken notes from the final) they fit straight into the bond theme, though maybe gold would be more hot! There wigs are horrendous though, even though you can only see there silhouettes!
Was it just me or at the 30 second mark when u first see Maria my first reactions was “oh hello you two!”? Her boobs are flaunted to an inch of their life, once again how Bond-like!
Then at 35s... it looks like my dream performance that will never be on Stars In Your Eyes! Head to toe Anna has been cloned into Hero star Charlotte from last year... well apart from the scary cat like face and grey starting complexion.
Well at least Anna sowed the bottom back together!
There’s been a lot of two cameras on screen action this MF, they must have upped the staff! When they finally meet the “baby, Baby” is sweeping and gracefully, but the dance moves are a bit like they’ve wet themselves! Actually maybe they have as from then on the chorus has that sort of feel to it! The switching of weight on legs is a tell-tell sign!
2m 19s has to be the weirdest dance move ever! She throws something, and then strokes her cleavage! It’s bizarre! But the “while you can” note arrangement wins me back over... and finally we get some gold in the background!
Could have done with fireworks at the end I think! This would have at least guaranteed a 12 from Norway! I love it and ill play it on repeat... but saying that it’s still no “Hold On Be Strong”!!
Ps. I do not condone music piracy on this blog... but http://poppostergirl.blogspot.com has some amazing tracks for you MF lovers!

Velvet: Take A Bow, She Is The Queen!
I usually download the program online, but some silly person put it up in a strange format so it didn't play, an nobody has uploaded anything else!
So this time I had to download individual performances!
Anyway my highlight this week was the magnificent performance by Dance/Pop supreme Velvet!
How magnificent! It's camp as the very queen she i declaring herself as!
The Disney style background at the beginning should be my wallpaper, and I will wear my Amy Diamond stolen jacket in front of it!
The start is of course very reminiscent of previous Dutch Eurovision entry
However while Linda made her dancers smell her feet by having them so low down, Velvet had a regal staircase and enough living bigger living quarters then I expect most Buckingham Palace staff get!
The fiercest moment in the routine tho is at the 1.03 mark, Ive watched over and over, where she turns! Its sharp and to the beat, so so hot!
The 2.00 mark dance break isn't as kick ass as usual dance breaks, but the charming nature fits with the performance and is highly entertaining. Kinda Steps "Say You'll Be Mine" reminiscent, but with a stronger EuroBeat!
To get back in the dress at the end is certainly amazing, she is in control and looking down on you biatches!
It strongly believe that Queen Elizabeth should perform this on Red Nose Day as the theme is "Do Something Funny"! What would be more funny than her belting this out from the skirt opening and her hundred corgis and staff running out from under?
I'm not surprised this didn't get through, though I'm disappointed! Velvet is a class act and I will investigate her further on the blog!

M.I.A. Legend: Call It Love, If You Want.. I Call Them Deuce!
Ok guys here is the first legend I want to discuss on this blog! Deuce were (well should I say are because they live on in many hearts?) a boy/girl band from the 90's! As you can see from the photo, their style was subtle :P!
There music is sheer pop, they took on pop in fantastic form, producing song with substance, style and class!
There single 'I Need You' shown above was the first single I ever bought, and there album was my first too! (Lets just hope I get famous so I can answer that if anyone asks!)
As you will soon be aware, I'm a Eurovision addict.. so when they tried to take part to represent UK this would have been a fantastic moment in Eurovision history, but they were bet by worst UK act ever! Wikipedia it because I cant even mention there names!!
Though there videos were classics, their performances were the bomb!
So what happened to them? Truthfully I don't really have a clue! Firstly the lady whos voice sounded like she had balls of steal, Kelly (Looking hot in neon over there) left and was replaced by a clone of her, who mimed to her voice for a bit!Then they released the snoozefest of 'No Surrender' (Which I've posted in the only bearable version I know!). Being a kid at the time, this failed to be caught on my radar, and it was not until my sisters came home from the Smash Hits Tour and told me Kelly had clone girl instead of her that I knew the end was near!
There album is a must have, don't know where to buy it now, but its worth the hunt! Hit after hit on it, well part from some misses i.e. 'Kiss It', pop masterpieces and ballads, must have album!
I will be first in line for their reunion, that better happen soon! Or maybe I'll just wait and form a tribute band!
Thats Deuce in a nutshell! I'll probably break them down a little more in different posts.. just depends where my head wonders!
