THE FERG IS BACK

Q: How do you enliven what feels like the 60th release from your admittedly brilliant album?
A: Make the VIDEO OF THE YEAR to accompany it!

The bit where her car falls apart, the boy she's ogling sneers and walks away, and Ferg shrugs with resignation is lovely; I laughed out loud when she swung the microphone stand into her backing singers; her hair is FABULOUS; and the final scene reveals that all along she was just Fergie in Wonderland.

It's a great song, too, and it really stands out as a single without the distractions of, like, the rest of the album - the spoken word bit! And a good single release in that it chimes precisely with the Ferg persona, the endearingly klutzy girl who stumbles around and does wrong things but is such a disarmingly charming trouper that she comes out unscathed.

Heheh marvellous! Good concept well executed. The spoken word bit works really well with video accompaniment.

It does feel strange that this is single number five and it's still really good - SEE we were SO RIGHT about The Dutchess being genius!
