What you say No-one has reviewed Belle Du Jour by Santa Dog yet. Give us your opinion on Belle Du Jour by Santa Dog. What we say This record left our Brian feeling ecstatic. Quite digging this CD single by SANTA DOG called 'Belle De Jour' that the band have sent us. It's breezy, brilliantly executed indie pop ala Belly, The Sundays & possibly Echobelly but the singer Rowena reminds me of someone else entirely, her sweet, full voice carrying the title track effortlessly through it's effortless, exuberant gallop towards your heart. This is truly the kind of classic guitar pop that exists in it's own universe, mercifully free of the shackles of hyperbole & trend. 'Rosa' shines in second place, it's polished Smithsian edges appealing to my inner indie kid, 'Pop Coloured' too being a perky mid-paced jangler full of easy to like hooks. Closer '1000 Cranes' is the atmosphere laden slowie, the gentle, heartfelt lull making this a well rounded 4 track treat for lovers of the more commercial end of lady fronted alt pop.

About the humble CD single:

Another digital format and even though they can hold 80 minutes of information (like a CD album would) record companies only fill up a small portion of the disc. Sometimes only 1 or 2 tracks on there totalling 5 minutes or so. It's like going to a restaurant and getting a plate of food with 2 green beans on and wondering where the rest of your meal is. Sometimes they're lovingly packaged though and when the music is good then you're into a winner. Also you get videos on there sometimes which you can watch on your computer. That is excellent.
