| Element Vs Ben VP 'Name and Number' i-tunes was trying to convince me this is a metal band from Norway, unlike the 'upbeat jazzy' summer pop this really is. Still, in the interests of fairness, I had a listen to the Absolute Steel track i was being tempted with and this is definately better.
It a cover by the singer from Curiosity Killed the Cat, of a song by Curiosity Killed the Cat. Name and Number has also been used by De La Soul, amongst others in the years since it's original release in 1987. That's one way to ensure you earn royalties.
It has been remixed by Element, an entity that has produced remixes for the likes of Usher and others. This is a chorus driven mix with some strong funk underpinning and a great brass riff. All in all a cheeky little summer dance number.
The video is also available for download onto your mobile phone and the single is released on August 7th. |
