OK so this chart is completely WVS but this other Ting Tings song is like COMPLETELY INDEFENSIBLE CRAP.
I mean it's supposed to be some sort of tribute to having an amazing experience in a club but it can't have been that amazing if the best they can do is this shrill, clunky bullshit. I mean trying to phonetically imitate strings etc with her HORRIBLE ANNOYING SHRILLY MANNERED VOICE is bad enough (aaagh that EEE-EEE-EEE bit) and then when she goes AND THE DRUMS AND THE DRUMS AND THE DRUMS unto infinity...god, you just want to kill. WORST SONG EVER.
And they're called THE TING TINGS for fuck's sake.
Alex is hating on the Ting Tings. what an awful band.

please god don't get me started. the stupid fake intonation in every word, the boy girl schtick, the name, OH GOD THE NAME, the closest boring hos will get to dance music, her stance, the guy, the boringness of it all, how much of the hate may just be directed at the girl as i have just proved but they're both OH GOD

she really really shouldn't say her name isn't stacey either cuz that just makes me think of the ferg and how she is 1000x the popstar that the ting tings chick will ever be. god it's so AMATEUR. and that 'great dj' song which people say is even better cuz it's about dance music is EVEN WORSE, she goes "and the drums and the drums and the drums" about a million times in her stupid voice and you want to kill her. if the best paean to dance music you can do is a lame annoying indie pop inconsequentiality you prob don't love it that much in the first place, right? also dude is just as hateable. HATE.
