Lets hear it for the big lasses

Fergie, 'Big Girls Don't Cry' & Mika, 'Big Girls (You Are Beautiful)

While its nice seeing Milo half naked in Fergie's video, and nice seeing Mika appear so convincingly straight acting in his... these two videos are posted here before you today... no so as to draw a tenuous ink between the big girls theme, but to argue that releasing material that's already old really makes me think this month we have so little new stuff to listen to.

There are only so many times we can wear out Darren Hayes new video - but thankfully we have his humongous album just around the bend. Mika and Fergie however seem to be wringing out everything from their debut albums. This is not really true its only their 3rd/4Th singles but in a world of album leaks at least three weeks in advance it means these songs are already feeling old without the added tedium of their tired videos selling it to those members of the public who finally relent to the promotion months after we've all gotten sick of their tracks.

The trouble in being a pop fan now means seeking out new music as soon as it gasps for air having been released from its creative womb. Were living on Kylie leaks and dying for a Girls Aloud tidbit for albums not due for a good three months... while summer smashes like Rihanna who haven't even stepped into second gear promo wise are already losing their thrill.
