Sam Sparro - Ice Cool Songbird


As I'm sure all you cool kids on the music scene are already aware, Sam Sparro is on the verge of something big. Black & Gold, his soon to be released nailed on-hit, has been (and will be) likened to many things. I'm sure you'll have your own take on it but I'm plumping for like having a bath in warm honey as Marvin Gaye drops an electric fire in to join you. Sort of.

No matter. Pete Tong's already playing it on Radio 1 and, when it's released, you will be too. Over and over and over again. You'll be humming it all day and it'll be the soundtrack to your dreams. Have a listen for yourself. Let me know what you think.

At any rate it's got to be better than Westlife.

Black & Gold by Sam Sparro is out on March 31st on Island Records.
