Tim: Pandora, a Swedish songstress who did all her big stuff in the nineties, but has been going strong and is now celebrating twenty years in the business. She’s also made a video to go with it of some highlights, so that’s nice. (Though try not to look at the lyrics.)
Tom: I can actually believe she’s done that video herself, which is either lovely or a terrible damning of someone else’s editing skills.
Tim: Well, yes, the lyrics bit of that video is awful, with a nice copy-and-pasted-three-times typo, but that’s not so bad because there’s a proper video on the way, apparently, and hopefully that also won’t have the audience at the end.
Tom: “Those of you who do not want to participate in this video, please contact us,” says the video description. I don’t even know how that’d work.
Tim: No. No, I’m not quite sure. But anyway, those minor things aside, this is a lovely track.
Tom: Agreed: it’s a pretty damn good bit of pop music.
Tim: It’s very happy, it’s celebratory like it should be, a euphoric dance track that we can all get excited to, and, as this video actually shows quite nicely, one that we can all have a wonderful time singing along to. There have been twenty years that we can all be very grateful for, and this is great way of celebrating them.
