Amy Weber - Something Kinda Ooh!

This is the latest single from the model, actress, and former WWE Diva. It is a cover of UK group Girls Aloud's song of the same name. It is a great opportunity to introduce the song to the rest of the world. Amy's vocals are pretty good, however, they lack the passion that the original had. Remixes by Tracy Young, DeMarko!, and Klubjumpers make this dancefloor ready. Tracy and DeMarko!'s are big room-oriented. DeMarko!'s is harder and just works better overall. The Klubjumpers mix has a Eurodance feel with some Rock thrown in. This is in a similar vein as the original Girls Aloud version. All are good, but the DeMarko! one is the standout.

Sexy?! NO NO NO!!!!

Justin definitely brought sexy back last year, but the ladies of Girls Aloud want to also. They are back with a hot new Dance/Pop track called "Sexy! No, No, No." The intoxicating intro is extremely noteworthy. The sudden jump into a Jamelia "Beware Of The Dog"-eque production is quite a pleasant surprise. The vocals are pretty decent from here on out. With its layering and manipulation of the main chorus throughout the track, it may take a few listens to get accustomed to, but it is a nice change from the cookie-cutter singles that are churned out year in, year out. Will Tony Lamezma remix? Let's hope the answer is yes.

Grade: B+
