Barbra's Bonkers

I never listen to the radio, but yesterday I was in the car with no CDs so had to put it on. I started with XFM, but was quickly disturbed by an advert claiming that their listeners had voted The Killer's 'Mr. Brightside' as the 'best song of all time.' XFM will be the only reason that Ash are never forgotten.

So I switched over the Radio 1. As a person I don't mind Fearne Cotton. She's nice and not a total dick in real life. Yet somehow as a presenter she is annoying and patronising and it almost makes me miss Jo Wiley.

Anyway, she started raving about this new song by Duck Sauce who is made up of Armand Van Helden and A-Trak. It's called 'Barbra Streisand' and it is the exact same song as Dizzee Rascal's 'Bonkers'. Unshockingly, Armand Van Helden also produced 'Bonkers'. In a blog a while back I mentioned how Scouting For Girls had managed to release the same song 3 times and get away with it, and I think Armand has jumped on that bandwagon. C'mon guys formulae is for maths not music! See what I mean...
