I don't want to ruin Sam's thread but I didn't say there was anything wrong with recording a cover, I just said that she did it for easy money, something she's admitted to herself so I don't really see why anyone's contesting that or taking issue with it. Of course the cover song won't be typical of her sound because she didn't write it. Hard Out Here was a subpar version of her usual output, she's admitted she doesn't like Air Balloon and it's not really her style and L8 CMMR is for a soundtrack, so again, won't be typical of her output. Basically I don't think she's being true to herself. Not gonna post again in the thread 'cause I don't wanna post negativity now that I've been made aware this is an appreciation only thread...

So why do you keep banging on about how she sold out by doing a cover? You obviously have a problem with it, she doesn't.

Most solo artists cover a song at some point in their career and seeing as shes released so much self written, intelligent and original material I don't see the problem with her putting her own interpretation of a song out there especially when proceeds went to charity. Yes of course shes going to make money from it as well because she worked on it, its her lively hood.

You see that's why I've gone off her a bit, why would she even record a song she didn't like?
Why can't artists just make the music they and their fans love instead of what they're told to be the industry?
It good you've posted objectively zee, I'm a fan but like you I find it really disappointing.

Lily Allen has claimed “men should be men”, saying she is put off by members of the opposite sex who spend too long in front of the mirror or wear aftershave.

The singer, who married builder and decorator Sam Cooper in 2011, said vain men give her the “shivers”.

She is the guest editor of this week’s ShortList magazine, called “How To Be A Man, by Women”.

Air Balloon is the best from the comeback yet, and the most popular single she will like it when it gets more popular
