Rachel Stevens has had a bit of a bad year with her singles so far.
Negotiate With Love and
So Good (both very good songs) all made the top 10 in the UK, but only just. So, let us pretend the last two singles weren't average charters (yes, in the UK, a number 10 entry seems to be an average), because her next single "
I Said Never Again (But Here We Are)" is fucking amazing.
Yes that's right. FUCKING amazing.
It's featured on Rachel's new "movie",
Deuce Bigalo: International Gigolo, which is no doubt shithouse. Rachel's in it for about 45 seconds, doesn't speak in the film, but is apparently "very good." But it's the movie's end credits roll that have fans getting into a twist - because, hurrah - Rachel's next single is featured in them in all its glory.
Not like anything La Stevens has done, it reminds us - quite heavily but still in a very unique way - of THE SWEET's
"Ballroom Blitz", and anyone who says that song is not one of the top 10 greatest songs ever made, needs to be shot smack bang in the head.
We also think the song may just be a big giant promo for anal sex... Yes! It's true... er, maybe not, but how about you be the judge of these lyrics...
"i really couldn't take anymore/Now it's two weeks later/I feel like such a traitor/ oh, i let you into my back door/you're the one who's creepin'/rough love's so deceiving/i said never again but here we are"
BRILLIANT!
The sad (and just plain stupid) news is: It's not being released till the 3rd of October. This will, of course, prevent Rachel going number 1, as we all know that Dannii Minogue is releasing her new single "Perfection" on that same day, and will, obviously, take the top title. However, it definitely deserves to go Number 2, and it's quite easily the 2nd greatest Rachel Stevens single to date.
With More, More, More being the absolute worst.
