Infectious Songs

For the last two days I've had this song stuck in my head for most of the time. It's by Dizzee Rascal featuring Lily Allen and it's called Wanna Be. I promise that it bears no resemblence to the Spice Girls song of the same title (and it has an explicit language warning). There's something about the combination of music and lyrics that you just have to hear over and over again... and the lyrics are funny, as you'd expect from Lily Allen.

I've also been listening to the new Kate Miller-Heidke single called Words which is also very infectious. It's a bit of a departure from her folkier stuff on Telegram and Circular Breathing. The new CD comes out today but thanks to the lack of trains between Clifton Hill and the city, going off to buy it isn't as easy as it usually would be so I'll hold out for another week. She performed this as the closer to her set last Friday night... it has a great chorus.
