The Lily Allen Appreciation Annexe (1 Viewer)

And I'm seconding Fag Hag

and Not Fair

and The Fear (the song that made me look up the UK charts in the first place and discover so many of my favorite artists/songs)
 
Inevitably, as a German woman with huge breasts, I like the one with the accordion, not least because there’s a slight whiff of OOMPAH

 
Chinese, I Could Say and Him are my favourites from Lily. I Could Say in particular is just gorgeous. That was a really good record.

Lost My Mind, Apples, Come on Then and My One from the last album were really good. Three on the other was twee rubbish :D probably my most common criticism of her work is that it can be way too melodically basic. I like it when she pushes herself to write more free-flowing melodies, as on the aforementioned highlights of INMIY.
 
she also seems to have a new one on the BENEE album which I haven't bothered with yet

 
That this #relatable gem was consigned to be a b-side is a testament to just how good that sophomore album really was :disco:

 
The first two albums are untouchable for me and are a real summary of (my) life in the years they were released. Iconique.

I've tried with the later ones and they're nice but nowhere near the level of FUZZY FEELS or whatever the first two give me.

I will squidge together a little Lily Top 10 when I can be arsed.

I only really know and love The Fear but I just like her as a personality. Does that count?

Well you have just redeemed yourself SOMEWHAT duck.
 
I've been listening to her new PODCAST with BESTIE MIQUITA. I find myself chuckling along with them.

I stand by all 23 of these songs
 
Sorry to ruin the positivity in this thread but I just popped in to throw it out there that she is probably my least favourite artist of all time.

And I once listened to a Bon Jovi album.
