What Do You Get

When you combine the sound of Regina Spektor and Lily Allen? It probably sounds a lot like Kate Nash's new single Mouthwash (I wonder how long the YouTube link will work for). It's on the radio quite regularly, I'm not entirely sure if I like it yet. If anything, it makes me want to listen to Regina Spektor's last album (I just noticed that it says she wrote the track Fidelity while watching the movie, High Fidelity, based on the excellent book [better than the movie] by Nick Hornby).
Ooh, just noticed that lots of other people have said the same thing:
"Two artists Nash is most often compared to are Lily Allen and Regina Spektor"
"You can successfully argue that Kate Nash is an annoying singer-songwriter cherub whose much too self-involved and that her cavity-inducing chirpy voice and piano-pop quirks sounded much better when it carried some edge and was delivered by Regina Spektor"
"While I may not crown Nash as the queen of this genre inhabited by Regina yet, I feel the need to emphasize that if you enjoy Regina Spektor (and would like Lily Allen’s music if she weren’t such an attention whore), you will absolutely love Kate Nash"
"The first single, Foundations, really does sound like Lily Allen. Another single, Mouthwash, does sound like Regina Spektor. It's weird but interesting. So here's the conclusion, if you like Regina Spektor and Lily Allen then you should watch the video for Mouthwash, you'll fall in love. If you don't like Regina Spektor and Lily Allen then don't waste your time."
"The Kate Nash debut gets better with each listen. Regina Spektor and Lily Allen's love child has created a winner with this incredible album!"
