La Roux - I'm Not Your Toy

I'm Not Your Toy by La Roux

3...according to our on Thu 24 Sep, 2009.

Speaking of the upper classes what does La Roux look like on the cover of her new single 'I'm not your Toy'? Kind of like a particularly precocious 6 year old boy with an ice cream coming out of his head. Much different from the long haired child prodigy seen playing piano in mother (The Bill's June Ackland) and father's drawing room in an unearthed photo you can probably find on the internet somewhere if you look hard enough. She can't sing either bless her, she has though had a run of decent catchy singles that have won even an ageing cynic like me over. The well was always gonna run dry and she's shot her bolt with this new single which demands a super strength ear trumpet to pick out the merest hint of a tune. You also get like a 'cutting edge dub step' remix from ..you know ...down on the streets (though from the sound of it probably not made by a black person). Oh well. There's always the 'difficult' second album to look forward to.

Following on from two smash hit singles that have together sold over 900,000 copies to date and a Mercury Award nominated number one album, La Roux return this autumn with brand new single ‘I’m Not Your Toy’ ahead of a sold out November tour across the UK. Part synth pop classic, part future pop blueprint, the unforgettably catchy ‘I’m Not Your Toy’ is set to be La Roux’s next instant classic and is as sure to take up residence in your brain as its predecessors. Remixes come from Data, Jack Beats and Nero. Radio 1 B List. BBC Mercury Music Prize perfromance.
