She takes me into fantasy

This young chap is called Darin Zanyar. He looks about twelve but is apparently 19, and this track 'Insanity' has been troubling the lower reaches of the German charts for the last couple of months. Darin had a chart-topper in Sweden a couple of years back when he still had braces. One to look out for, perhaps?

(in which you all get to suffer for the fact that the boy's been unavoidable in Finland since his debut)

Also check out Want Ya! from the other year, which features A DANCE-OFF IN A PARKING GARAGE, awesome. (There was a lot of that going around in videos at the time, actually.) And also the song is pretty damn hot.

The video for the latest album's lead single Perfect, conversely, is very, very dorky, but it's balanced out by the sheer spun-sugar bubblegum perfection (haha) of the song itself. (...and why did I never buy these, srsly?)
