they're a band made up of the slaggy mums outside primary schools!

i liked the idea of a song called "don't you wish your girlfriend was hot like me" from the moment i heard of it...then i actually heard it and its just a shit song rly. but i like the "concept".

i suppose i just like being hotter than people's girlfriends.

I actually hated PCDs at first, and still don't much like that song, b/c I'd heard the Tori Alamaze original first which I think is loads better, a lot sultrier and more effective, and she got dropped when it was given to the PCDs so I took against them. Somehow missed both 'Stickwitu' and 'Beep' at the time but 'Buttonz' was my conversion point...

The album is basically an unbroken glorious run of six singles then a load of dodgy cabaret covers.

The defence puts it to the court that...

...first of all 'Don't Cha' has great rapping from Busta - two minutes of 'not sure what the eff is going on but they're paying me well'. The song itself is very strangely structured - lots of space between each of the vocal phrases but musically nothing different happens inbetween! Compare to eg 'Buttonz' where they have the same sort of string-of-words followed by a pause, but this time the vocal pause gives way to an awesome eastern string sample. Perhaps the PCDs haven't got much lung capacity? Anyway, I like 'Dont Cha''s minimal approach - it's really grown on me over the last few months.

Is this good or bad?

a fine question.
bit of both probably.
