Ali Love - Bop St.
"Let me take you to the place where the people fly to outer space"
Blogs seem to be going crazy for him, but radio seems all but finished with his new single Secret Sunday Lover. Add to that the fact that it's almost impossible to get any of his music if you don't live in the UK, and I'm beginning to think that Love's deserved rise to the top is going to be harder going than it first appeared to be. We need to change that, because this guy is a great modern pop star. Bursting on the scene last year with the punky K-Hole (reminiscent of Adam Ant?) and then following it up with a poppier single this year, he's already shown his versatility. Having heard a load of b-sides and album tracks, I can safely say his debut (out in September) is going to be fantastic. Bop St., an 80's homage if their ever was one, is a perfect example of Love's charm. Let's just say that Prince is obviously an influence.... and remember this is only a b-side!
