Diana Vickers - Music To Make The Boys Cry


Us keen pop fans always knew Diana Vickers had it in her. Once and The Boy Who Murdered Love showed an incredible glimpse at the kind of artist that in time Diana could truly become, the kind of artist we could have only dreamed of when she was performing every week on the X Factor.

The first track to be taken from her new album, Music To Make The Boys Cry is a gorgeous synth-pop delicacy of a thing - all twinkling 80s synthesizers like a crossover between Yazoo and early Madonna. Those that heard Diana's brilliant cover of Snow Patrol's Just Say Yes will have an inkling of the kind of effervescent shiny joy she's conjured up here - it's happy, feel-good pop in the very best of senses.

The track was co-written by Simen Says of Norwegian group Donkeyboy (them of Joe McElderry Ambitions fame).

'Some girls wanna dance in the spotlight, some girls just kiss and tell, some girls just want a movie moment waiting by the wishing well' sings Diana in the track's chorus - I mean, is there anything quite as unashamedly, brilliantly 'POP' as that? We adore this already.

Music To Make The Boys Cry is available as a free download on Diana's website: http://www.dianavickersmusic.com/
