Talia's Song Pick-o-the-week

I love myspace sweetheart, Lily Allen! Who doesn't? The feisty sneakers-with-a-party dress wearing 21-year old singer from London made a name for herself by uploading some rough tracks to her myspace, and the rest is history. You've all probably heard Smile, which is her biggest hit so far, but my favorite is the song I've chosen for my song pick of the week- Littlest Things. Listen to her full debut Album (2007 Capitol), Alright, Still, streamed on Rollingstone.com HERE. The beats are cutesy and fun to listen to, but the coolest part of her songs are the down to earth lyrics which ably showcase her no-nonsense personality.

Littlest Things

By: Lily Allen

Sometimes I find myself sittin' back and reminiscing

Especially when I have to watch other people kissin'

And I remember when you started callin' me your miss's

All the play fightin', all the flirtatious disses

I'd tell you sad stories about my childhood

I dont know why I trusted you but I knew that I could

We'd spend the whole weekend lying in our own dirt

I was just so happy in your boxers and your t-shirt

Dreams, Dreams

Of when we had just started things

Dreams of you and me

It seems, It seems

That I can't shake those memories

I wonder if you have the same dreams too.

The littlest things that take me there

I know it sounds lame but its so true

I know its not right, but it seems unfair

That the things are reminding me of you

Sometimes I wish we could just pretend

Even if for only one weekend

So come on, Tell me

Is this the end?

Drinkin' tea in bed

Watching DVD's

When I discovered all your dirty grotty magazines

You take me out shopping and all we'd buy is trainers

As if we ever needed anything to entertain us

the first time that you introduced me to your friends

and you could tell I was nervous, so you held my hand

when I was feeling down, you made that face you do

no one in the world that could replace you

Dreams, Dreams

Of when we had just started things

Dreams of me and you

It seems, It seems

That I can't shake those memories

I wonder if you feel the same way too

The littlest things that take me there

I know it sounds lame but its so true

I know its not right, but it seems unfair

That the things remind me of you

Sometimes I wish we could just pretend

Even if for only one weekend

So come on, Tell me

Is this the end?
