September - Cry For You
(written by Von Der Burg, Bhagavan & Von Der Burg; 2005; UK #5; April 2008)

The Swedish do good pop, fact. With ABBA, Robyn and even A*Teens cracked out a few pop gems, the scandinavians walk the fine line separating cheese and credible pop. Riding the crest of the some what 'Chavvy' dance music that is continually lapped up by the alcopop swilling lads and ladettes of Great Britain, 'Cry For You' is dancey enough to be played in the clubs, whilst being pop enough to actually be any good. It's the kind of song that heard in the background sounds awful, but listened to at full blast in the confines of one's bedroom, it's real charm is revelaed. Once you give it a chance you find it hard not to like it. Featuring a Bronski Beat sample, first recorded back in 2005, it was remixed and updated for it's 2008 UK release. All in all it is a brilliant kiss off record.

Best Lyric: "You'll never see me again/ No matter what you do"
