Lily Allen – Littlest Things

March 26th, 2007 by

Lily Allen
“Littlest Things”

Not only does this song have really interesting musical tidbits, but the lyrics are high quality also. Something tells me she spends a lot of time working on being a lyricist. I think she pulls it off nicely. Good form. Cheers mate.

    Love this song, dude. I remember the first time you introduced me to Lily Allen and I thought her sound was so cool. I bought her album when I was in NOLA and listened to it all the way back home. Awesomeness.

    Ps, I especially love how she uses the triplets in “sometimes I wish…” Triplets are grossly underused in music now, I feel. That’s part of the reason why I love the sound of this song.

    This is the second most beautiful Brit voice i know. The first is Ali Rogers of Puracane. (which, btw, I demand that you hear “big day”, and their awesome Jane’s Addiction cover of “summertime rolls”)

    Getting back to this track however, I like this singer becuase of her ability to sing casually about the day-to-day, and that she uses words and phrases that are just SOOOOOOOOOO British – takes me back to my primary school days… Orange Squash, Trolley, etc.

    My favorite line of all time is this song she sings about her brother. The lyric is:

    “Oh little brother please refrain from doing that,
    I’m trying to help you out so can you stop being a twat.”

    I LOVE it when “That” and “Twat” rhyme.
