Alesha Dixon's new single

[Ethel]

The Boy Does Nothing

It sounds very like Mamba No5 to me. Anyone agree?

[Maypole]

Yesterday Steve Wright said was the same backing tune (if thats the right musical terminology)

[Ethel]

Oh! I never heard Steve Wright, but yes, I think that is why it brings Mambo No 5 to mind.

[smudge]

Yep, that's what I said when it first came out Ethel.

Every time it comes on, I can't help dancing round the room to it with my granddaughters or cat! ;o}

It's just been on the radio. Really catchy. Does he wash up? he never washes up... di di di di di di di di di da etc etc etc etc etcla la la .....

Now look what you've done.... I'm gonna be sing that all afternoon now!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Ethel]

I like happy music. :)

I saw Alesha sing it on Strictly Come Dancing a few weeks ago.

It's not brilliant, and it won't go down in history as a great record that must be in your collection, but it's pleasant enough

My husband came home from work last week & asked if I'd heard it. I mentioned that it had been on SCD & that it was quite a catchy dance song!

As I say, when it comes on, I pick my cat up & we dance to it, she does look at me a bit odd, but who cares - nice to be happy! ;o}

[zzxxee]

do you think its her attempt to get back at ex hubby harvey??

Shw was interviewd several weeks ago before the song was released. It's written by the same people who did Gabriella Cilmi's Sweet about Me. When I heard that info I could hear the drumbeat/ swing similarities. Useless info I know, but I like useless info!!
