Little Boots – Headphones

A proper electropop dance track.

Tom: The lovely thing about certain artists is that you can tell it’s them just from how they sound.

Tim: Very true.

Tom: Little Boots has just such a sound, and my word, it’s a good one.

Tom: Okay, so the “la la la” chorus is a bit unimaginative, and the rest of the lyrics are a bit meaningless and ridiculous, but none of that really matters, because it’s a proper electropop dance track.

Tim: But if it’s a track about music in general, “la la la” is fairly appropriate if you’re going to have a recurrent theme.

Tom: A bit more poppy than her previous album, perhaps – but that’s by no means a bad thing.

Tim: I’d go so far as to say: it’s a good thing. Although I would say that at four minutes and with such a notable, recurring theme going on, it sounds a bit drawn out at the end. That’s my only criticism, though.
