Open Lawn Devotion

Ok, so I said I didn't get hooked on anything (like The Mighty Boosh). But I lied ok, get over it!

We were up early this morning and I was flicking around the TV, navigating away from the news when I stumbled across a sublime, sexy song playing on TMF.

I have never heard of the performer before but became absolutely hooked.

"Angel City" by Helicopter Girl is superb, it's sexy, soulful and possibly one of the best things I have heard in ages.

Rarely does a song produce goose-bumps but this really had me shivering.

Sadly I was unable to find the single in my local record store. As ever, unless it's a teen/mass marketed act you cannot find it on the racks of CDs. Increasingly I feel that the charts are fixed because of such purchasing habits of the record stores. This is a shame as Helicopter Girl deserves to be destined for greatness. At least, this should be the hit of the summer.

I urge you if you see this single (or the album which is released on Monday) to buy it!!! Give this wonderful woman and her talent the recognition it deserves. (if you don't see it, like the video and want to purchase it, order it from Play (where I have had to get my copy!)
