fergie & her THE DUTCHESS album, spoilered

- two wicked, breezily unconcerned electro jams which end in 'ous'

- two trademark IMPRESSIVELY BAD IDEA black eyed pea songs (temptations' "get ready" earnestly updated as my humps pt2, bored one at the end for festival goers who enjoyed "lets get retarded")

- one reggae ballad with rita marley sung in suspiciously ska punk manner before the twist two and a half minutes in: it was gonna be the mighty mighty fergtones all along!

- at least two other songs that will strike you as a bit ska wars by the end of the album when ferg has revealed her agenda

- one awesome welding together of sassy electro ferg and ska ferg called "voodoo doll"!

- one unashamedly trip hop song called "velvet"! (i feel perhaps groundlessly that ska and trip hop were 90s sides of the same coin so this makes perfect thematic sense when it comes on)

- one midtempo thing (which is breezy too, it is a breezy ska album!) where she sounds like blu cantrell

- one big attempt at second single glorious whitneyballad which i hope does well

- one acousticy big chorused sad song called "big girls dont cry" :-( probably co written by fefe dobson, the veronicas and sky mangel
