Noisettes made a valiant effort this week in dethroning Lady GaGa from the top of the UK Singles Chart. Alas, they had to settle for #2 as Great Britain held onto their poker faces for another week.
Still, their failure to reach the top spot shouldn't deter the trio or their fans; with an infectious single like "Don't Upset The Rhythm", they should be hearing Fearne & Reggie playing their song last on the Chart Show very soon.
"Don't Upset The Rhythm", the group's second single from their album Wild Young Hearts, is one of the funkiest pop songs that has come around in the past years. It's unabashed in its mixture of different genres; there's a little bit of everything on this track. There's some electro, R&B, pop, rock, even a dash of jazz from the spirited vocals of lead singer Shingai Shoniwa. It all comes together on this wonderfully rhythmic thrasher that is easily one of the most interesting songs of the year so far.
Keep your radios tuned in on both sides of the Atlantic, I hear a smash track laying anchor soon.
Rating: 8/10
