Lana Del Ray - Born To Die (Live)
Video Games is everywhere. Even Radio 2 have made it a regular fixture on their playlists. Take a look into Idol’s crystal ball to see what the future holds for Ms. Del Rey. Born To Die is set to be the follow up to, arguably, the best single of the year, and it measures up pretty well. It has that same entrancing minimalism and chanteuse vocals, but sees the good girl of Video Games becoming that bad girl she longed to be as she implores us all to “get high”, “take a walk on the wild side” and “fuck hard in the pouring rain.”
Bruno Mars - Runaway Baby
As the X Factor empire is falling apart at the seams it’s still one of very few high profile places that book big name acts for live televised performances. And the guest star performance of the series yet to be topped is Bruno Mars. Usually, I have pretty strong aversion to Mars’ “woes me, all I want is a stable relationship” schtick, but damn is this performance slick. The matching band outfits, the sharp, synchronised dance moves and the effortless vocals all evoke the golden era of Motown when perfection was standard.
