Single Review: Envy – Friday Night (Stopstart)

By | Published on Monday 24 November 2008

Envy

I’m sure it’s happened to you before. While working your way through a bottle of Tesco’s finest value vodka before hitting a night club (in a gallant bid to get that Friday feeling without paying a club’s drink prices) you suddenly lose the ability to aesthetically assess everyone around you. Something similar seems to be happening to Envy who here painstakingly tells us of her troubles finding Mr Right after “Malibu, Sambuca and JD”. All you can do is sympathise. A very funny song, backed with a cavernous and dirty bassline, this is a bit like Wiley meets Lily Allen. And while that sounds like a horrendous proposition, it actually makes for entertaining, danceable music that doesn’t even offend in the chorus when the cheesy synths swell in. As we thankfully reach a Brit-school lull, watch out for Envy, because now’s her chance. GB
