Ed Sheeran: Jaded And Spoiled????
Ed Sheeran: Jaded And Spoiled????

1. Don’t – Ed Sheeran – I’ll believe most things given the opportunity, but Ed as a tousle headed ladies man, sleeping with a popular pop singer and writing songs about it? That’s pushing me to the outer limits of credibility. Maybe if he had sex appeal? – B-

2. La La La – Naughty Boy – As catchy as its title and a pleasure to hear Sam selling his voice for something more than mope – B+

3. Moving On – Modern Hut – less moving on, more treading water – A

4. Sad Girl – Lana Del Rey – If fucking your way to the top only gets you so far, this should get you the rest of the way – A

5. Turn da Beat Up – Big Freedia – Drag Queen from New Orleans Beat movement sounds like everybody else only bouncier– B+

6. Fake I.D. – Cerebral Ballzy – The only song on the album to hit hard, but it is all pretty good power punk – A

7. Close To Me – Tiesto, Sultan + Ned Shepherd – This is a better EDM –AOR ballad, mostly because it really nails the beat – B+

8. Guitar In The Corner – Willie Nelson – Snoozy and pretty – B

9. I Adore You – Adore Delana – Popular drag queen goes dance – B

10. Please Don’t Tease – Cliff Richard – The essence of Cliff’s 1950s vibe was the Elvis Presley who sang “You’re So Square” but only the pop master Elvis – A
