World of Girls – Weekend Girl

Tim: Quick bit of fun for a Friday for you, a new Danish girlband, fresh out of the factory, managed by Rene off Aqua. Interested? Because you should be.

Tom: Oh, please tell me at last this week’s got some upbeat and happy music in it.

Tim: Oh yes.

Tim: Loud and enjoyable and a little bit shouty and a bit sweary which comes as a slight shock to the happy fun party vibe, but to be honest that’s the only criticism I can level at this track, because you’d really have to be a bit miserable not to like this. (I’ll just stand back for a bit and let you take the stand.)

Tom: It’s not bad. I’m not going to go full-on miserable, because there’s enough in here that makes me smile: the percussion-heavy pre-chorus, the shouty parts, even the unexpected swearing. I can see myself dancing to this, even if I can’t see it on a regular playlist.

Tim: Of course, it’s slightly spoiled when you listen to the lyrics and realise that they’re actually singing that the weekend girl in question is not something fun to aspire to be but just a bit of a strumpet who the target of the song should ignore, but let’s not do that. Instead let’s party out to the fact that it’s the weekend, and in fact LET’S ALL BE STRUMPETS. Who’s in?
