but what to expect from N.B.? What genre does Natasha Bedingfield fall into? 'Mental' is one throw-away answer, but for the want of a musically descriptive term I'll plump for 'attention-seeking'.
I had been wondering for some time what really got on my tits about Natasha Bedingfield and that specifies it exactly- it's the in your face lookitmelookitmelookitmelookitmeLOOKITME!!! unrelentingly thrust in your face. That and she is altogether too cheery and nicey-nicey 'ooh look I've got balls yeah girls this is awesome and aren't boys ace when they're great?' for me, she kind of reminds me of Bunty magazine or something. You cannot possibly attempt to read a book about failed humanitarian efforts while someone burbles 'iluvuiluvuliluvuliluvu!' in your ear. Or, well, I can't anyway and the degree necessitates the sacrifice of the latter for the former.
However, I suspect since the Fergie album grew on me a whole lot and I now really, really like it I should probably give this a go, based on your discussion. Also anything with a line about lemmings probably can't be all wrong.
