www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMxX-QOV9tIan incredible piece of music i loved through just hearing it out and about over the last year or so. the way she sang the 'money money' hook was enough for me & the tune could have been a pean to money for all I cared. Finally went on the hunt for the tune armed with just the hook to sing & no other information in in Brixton market on Thursday & landed the catch at the third time of asking. Played it 6 times straight when I got home loved the hook & the heavy heavy rhythm all over again but listened to the words for the first time - the most perfect anti-bling, anti-materialism message & an instant SEHP anthem 'we don't care about the money money .... we just wnat to make the world dance, forget about the price tag'. As good as anything i have heard in 30 years & I don't bullshit on music; everything else yes, but music no. T
