34 7.18 Life For Me

Sheezus

Highest score: 10 - jsilv, Heezus, JosephStyles, Niall Minogue

Lowest score: 4 - Eyes

 

At the bottom of this section, we have two very contrasting songs, score-wise, tied. Life For Me managed to get four 10s, yet the majority of its other scores were pretty mediocre, dragging its overall average down. Never Gonna Happen, on the other hand, had much more consistent scores, with only one 10 and its next highest being 8. Life For Me is one of my favourites on Sheezus so I'm gutted it's so low :( Holding On To Nothing is at #33, the 2nd best deluxe track on Sheezus both in my opinion and going by this rate. Only Wind Your Neck In out of the four deluxe tracks is left. The title track of Sheezus is out at #32, purposely not an official single because it has the word "period" in it according to Lily. The first actual single drops out at #31 - Shame For You was released as the 4th single from Alright, Still as a double a-side with Alfie, and is the first single with Lily as the lead artist to drop out.

Glad most of those are out. Wouldn't have minded Never Gonna Happen making the top 30

BUT WOW AT SHEEZUS OUT ALREADY. Though it should probably be around there though. It's quite a good song but below average Lily song IMO

Another tie sees the second last b-side drop out in joint 29th. Both of the LDN b-sides have made the top 30, with Nan You're a Window Shopper still to come, which is also the highest b-side left. Him and I Could Say both drop out from It's Not Me, It's You - I hoped the former would be higher, it's a great thoughtful track. One of my Alright, Still highlights is out at #28 - thought Everything's Just Wonderful would be higher, definitely one of the more memorable songs on there and not for the wrong reasons either. Finally, at #27, we have Lead Air Balloon. The poor flop didn't receive a great reception on here but even so, I'm shocked it's THIS low :lol: I don't think it's too bad, it grew on me quite quickly but I wouldn't have chosen it as a single. I think it's what killed all the hype for the Sheezus era in all honesty.

I love Just be Good To Green, it's way too low :(
HOW is 'I Could Say' so low?! Disgusting. I forgot to rate, but I thought that'd do better even without my "11" :( By far my favourite from her.

I could say and him should be a bit higher

BUT AIR BALLOON SHOULD BE TOP 15. Yes maybe it should have been released as like 4th single or album track but it is great and so catchy

25 7.69 Oh My God (Mark Ronson feat. Lily Allen)

Version - Mark Ronson Album

Highest score: 10 - Hayzayy, JosephStyles, Michael!, Ryan

Lowest score: -1 - Eyes

 

The last remaining song with Lily as a featured artist is unsurprisingly Oh My God, and it makes it as high as #25. BOO at Eyes giving it a -1 although I'll presume he prefers the original (wrong opinion :) x). Alfie is the next single to drop out, it's a bit of a weird song and is definitely love/hate amongst you all. How I feel about the song can vary based on the day :lol: Bass Like Home and Nan, You're a Window Shopper also drop out in this section, leaving no b-sides remaining, with As Long As I Got You being the final song to miss the top 20. Shocked that one is as low as it is in all honesty.

I don't think I can remember the original (so obviously correcting that now)! :o I'm not as up with Kaiser Chiefs as I'd like to be and they're one of the few mid-00s alt-rock bands I don't have any albums by. :lol:

 

My problem with it is that the Lily Allen version is annoying as hell - I have this problem with most of that Mark Ronson era. It'd be hard for me to not prefer the original - and as the first 20 seconds confirm, yes I very much do. ^_^

Take My Place is top 20, yay. Bass Like Home is her best B-side for me, for sure.

LOL! "Kabul shit" is one of my favourites, how on Earth did it come last?! :cry:

And "Absolutely nothing" being so low is criminal too. :(

19 7.95 Knock ‘Em Out

Alright, Still

Highest score: 10 - Hayzayy, JosephStyles, Niall Minogue

Lowest score: 3 - Eyes

 

20 7.92 Somewhere Only We Know

Sheezus

Highest score: 11 - Michael!

Lowest score: 0 - mr_aly

 

Both of these tracks are criminally low IMO. :cry: Somewhere Only We Know was Lily's comeback single last year, and whilst it was not what many wanted from her (that came the week after in the form of Hard Out Here), it's outsold all the other singles from Sheezus combined, and then some, and became the third lead single of Lily's in a row to make the top spot, following Smile and The Fear. It's very inoffensive IMO, not sure how it can be hated :cry: Knock 'Em Out is one of my Alright, Still highlights, always found it quite amusing at least and it's quite a fun track. I hear the instrumental used on many shows still, and I think it was on an advert recently too?

Somewhere Only We Know is beautiful and amazing. Should be in 6th behind fear, HOH, NF, Smile & 22 and possibly LDN/ALAIGY

 

At least knock 'em out is out though. Should have been around 35. Ok song

17 8.09 Silver Spoon

Sheezus

Highest score: 10 - Heezus, jsilv

Lowest score: 6 - HausofKubrick, mr_aly

 

18 7.96 Not Fair

It's Not Me, It's You

Highest score: 10 - Ultraviolence, Michael!, Ryan

Lowest score: -1 - mr_aly

 

Not Fair drops out rather early, not helped by Aly's -1 for it! It's definitely a love/hate song, probably down to the questionable lyrical content :lol: Silver Spoon, on the other hand, is a lot higher than I expected :o Not disappointed though, it's a great track and one of my favourites on Sheezus.

Somewhere Only We Know is criminally underrated. It's very superior to the original and beautiful when performed live.

15 8.18 Take My Place

Sheezus

Highest score: 11 - jsilv

Lowest score: 5 - Eyes

 

16 8.13 Wind Your Neck In

Sheezus - deluxe

Highest score: 10 - Heezus, JosephStyles

Lowest score: 4 - mr_aly

 

By far the highest deluxe track from Sheezus, Wind Your Neck In almost makes the top 15! It's definitely worthy of a place on the main album IMO, it's the Lily Allen we all know and love I think. Take My Place is at #15, a nice song but perhaps a bit too high IMO, especially considering some of the songs below it.
