Posted July 19, 200618 yr Pipettes - We Are The Pipettes http://www3.hmv.co.uk/hmv/Large_Images/HMV/PRERELCDPIP.JPG Possibly the best pop album of the 21st Century thus far, The Pipettes' debut arrives after a raft of tours and is backed by the singles 'Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me' and 'Pull Shapes'. - HMV Hyperbole aside, the three chanteuses that front the group produce timeless pop in the vein of 50s doo-wop, owing more than a small nod to the likes of Gladys Knight and her Pips, The Shangri-Las and the Grease Soundtrack. An album which takes the idea of bubble-gum-pop and turns it into an art-form, 'We Are The Pipettes' is full of classically formed and catchy melodies with choruses that linger in the brain long after the CD stops playing. Guaranteed to put a smile on anybody's face, this is a collection of songs that while perhaps best sampled in the sun, will remain a classic long after the summer has finished.

July 19, 200618 yr Meh I suppose this is a PROPER topic about the album itself but it's my favourite of the year so far :wub: and did I mention yet I met them and got it signed? :lol:
July 19, 200618 yr Author There is a topic about this just below this one :mellow: Yea, the comments that's it's the best Album of the year indicated to me that it deserved it's own thread! :cool:
July 19, 200618 yr Yea, the comments that's it's the best Album of the year indicated to me that it deserved it's own thread! :cool: Yeah I realised this is a thread about the actual album rather than where it is in your HMV :lol:
July 19, 200618 yr They deserve to be huge. The Mercury Music Awards panel have really messed up not nominating them for album of the year. Here are some reasons why: [flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MWz1ZknI5lU.swf PIPETTES - Live On the Album Chart Show

July 19, 200618 yr Well they're doing great considering how small their label (Memphis Industries) is :cheer: Still waiting for a more precise prediction for the album though.

July 19, 200618 yr 10 We Are The Pipettes 10 Pull Shapes 10 Why Did You Stay? 10 Dirty Mind 10 It Hurts To See You Dance So Well 10 Judy 09 A Winter's Sky 10 Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me 09 Tell Me What You Want 10 Because It's Not Love (But It's Still A Feeling) 09 Sex 10 One Night Stand 10 ABC 09 I Love You For me :D Wonder if they'll release another single :o I hope so :( I they do then I want 'We Are the Pipettes' or 'Because Its Not Love' to be it :cheer:
July 19, 200618 yr There are rumours of 'Judy' or 'We Are The Pipettes' being the next single ;) But isn't 'We Are The Pipettes' a bit too different from the rest to be a single :unsure: I'd like Judy or ABC to be the next single myself :wub:
July 19, 200618 yr 'We Are the Pipettes' would make a great single imo, it seems be a real favourite at least with people I know :unsure: I think all of the album is rather eclectic, it sticks with the theme of 60's inspired pop but it then branches off into a variety of styles. I think WATP is certainly catchy and radio firendly enough to make it as a single.
July 19, 200618 yr Personally, I would like to see Because It's Not Love as the next single. Musically, they remind me of this UK Top5 Hit single from 1983: [flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6VskqRZ6ic.swf TRACEY ULLMAN - BREAKAWAY video
July 19, 200618 yr Judy and ABC have both been out before. But yeah, I suppose it wouldn't hurt - they're both ace.
July 19, 200618 yr Author Personally, I would like to see Because It's Not Love as the next single. Musically, they remind me of this UK Top5 Hit single from 1983: TRACEY ULLMAN - BREAKAWAY :wub: :wub: Pipettes could cover that, maybe give them the break through they require.
July 19, 200618 yr Its taken a while to grow on me but I'm beginning to love it. I wouldn't have bought it if I wasn't going to the signing but still. My faves are pull shapes, dirty mind, ABC and Judy!
July 19, 200618 yr The name of the band and the name of there song makes me think that they are a cheerleading group! :P
