Likin’ Lenka

It’s time for another singer who I didn’t know existed ten minutes ago, with a song I liked instantly. Lenka, from Australia. I just love this sort of song, and the sound it makes. Forget the cow bell, give me more bells! This may be the only song by Lenka I like. I don’t know yet, because it’s all I’ve heard so far.

Lenka came up on my Lily Allen channel on Pandora. I think Allen’s The Fear is a superb piece of work. It’s a perfect expression of sentiments, both sincere and ironic. It’s also an exceptional example of how essential the producer is — Greg Kurstin in this instance — to giving a recording a certain effect and feeling.
