Lily Allen on Top of the Pops

[flash=450,350]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XJ_hfQ2h4kQ.swf

If you haven't already heard of Lily Allen – where have you been? Lily's infectious pop has been causing a stir since she first started posting her tunes on MySpace. Taken from her debut album 'Alright, Still', the fabulously infectious single 'Smile' was produced by Future Cut and features the sample 'Free Soul' by the Soul Brothers (written by Clement Dodd & Jackie Mittoo). - HMV

Having been away from the music scene for the last couple of years to pursue an acting career (apart from the odd cameo appearances on records with Snoop Dogg and Sergio Mendes), Justin Timberlake finally makes a dramatic return to the charts with the Timbaland-produced 'SexyBack'. Not so much a comeback as a mission statement, 'SexyBack' acts as a taster for Justin’s forthcoming album, 'FutureSex/ LoveSound', his second since he departed the boyband N*Sync, becoming one of the slickest male solo artists of the 21st century. With dirty and sleazy synth riffs, processed vocals and lyrics oozing sexual intentions, 'SexyBack' might well just be Pop Single of the Year. The track also goes some way to cement Timbaland's status of being 2006's hottest producer, which he already demonstrated on Nelly Furtado's 'Maneater'. - HMV

Dropping from the harmonic heavens to the groovalistic dance floor, Rihanna has returned with another single that will have listeners begging the DJ to play it one more time. Produced by Jason Rotem, the sizzling 'S.O.S.' is bringing the summer heat early this year. With its hypnotic beat and enticing melody, 'S.O.S.' utilizes the electro-funk of Soft Cell's '80s classic 'Tainted Love' to create a soulful anthem of young love. - HMV

The big success story from the recent Nineties revival, Take That's reunion tour saw them play to over half a million people. Now Gary, Mark, Howard and Jason unveil their first single for over ten years.

Shaping up to be one of the singles of the year, 'Maneater' marks the spectacular return of Nelly Furtado. Co-written between Nelly and hip hop uber-producer Timbaland, 'Maneater' finds Nelly once again going against the grain with a colourful, innovative pop anthem, which is taken from her primarily beat-driven forthcoming album, 'Loose'. - HMV
