Didnt Little Boots write a few songs for people or something? I do think Little Boots is really underrated. "New In Town", "Stuck On Repeat", "Bring It On", "Herarts Collide","Meddle" and "Remedy" are all brilliant.

Just a shame she didnt release them all!!

Stuck On Repeat was intended for Kylie's album but she turned it down so Little Boots took it. oh and Kelly Clarkson's I Do Not Hook Up was originally written by Katy Perry.

'Umbella' was offered to Mary J. Blidge, too.

When they offered it to Britney, she didn't hear of the song, because her stupid label rejected it.

I dont mind it really. Sounds very similar to Lady Gaga's version tbh.

Interesting turn down song fact. Madonna's La Isla Bonita was first offered to Michael Jackson, before Madonna accepted it and re-wrote the lyrics.

Things could of been very different there.

Also Justify My Love was originaly from one of Prince's poems he wrote (They were friends at the time and the lyrics are quite different from the poem)

I don't think it suits her as much. She struggles in the verses, imo.
