Miley Cyrus - 'Fly on the Wall'Having read this 15 year old's frankly terrifying list of achievements I feel compelled to treat her latest offering with some degree of respect. The melody is undeniably catchy with surprising power behind the vocals and backing but the lyrics seem to scream Disney Channel rather than chart success. No doubt tweenage consumers will prove me wrong.

The Tunics - 'Shine On'
Ticking all the indie boxes, 'Shine On' has cocky lyrics sung by a droning lead vocalist. It's lacking any real tune and is as forgettable as the majority of the 'the' bands around at the moment. They sing "This is rock and roll". If this is true, it's a very sad day for music.

La Roux- 'In for the Kill'
A slick 80’s-style video and look heralds the simple, catchy synths and jumpy beat, mixed with a very modern vocal style. The gorgeous electronic sound behind a beautiful voice makes a fantastic combination of 80’s electropop and 00’s dance; a definite club hit.
