Lilly Allen - The Fear (New Music Video)



Boring song, and video. 3 points.

The song is a parody that discusses everything that she wants and all the things she would do to have a lot of money and be famous. The song has been praised as the songs subject is based on the negative side of celebrity culture, rather than the positive which makes it more unique compared to typical lyrics in pop music today which normally glamorises the celebrity lifestyle. The song is very different from her last songs, marking a more electropop sound and direction for her 2nd album, and less pop/ska like her previous songs and singles.

Lily Allen released the song on her MySpace page sometime in August 2008 and it has since been released onto the popular video sharing website, YouTube, where it has had over 180,000 hits as of December 9, 2008.
