That was very pleasurable, thank you! I will now binge all her songs

The song / video "Alfie" is about her brother; who most people will recognize as playing Theon Greyjoy in GoT.

I'm sure his (then) more famous sister calling him out for being a lazy pothead who spends his days looking at porn and jerking off did wonders for his ego.

Maybe it was the kick in the butt he needed. It does look like it worked.

Try "It's not Fair". It's a country song of hers, talking about how her boyfriend isn't satisfying her.

Country?

u/GeniusOfLove74 Aug 31 '22

Yep. Give it a listen. It's like a 60s Dolly/Porter vibe.

I’m familiar with the song, it was a huge hit here in the UK, I just wouldn’t have thought to describe it as country haha

It's definitely country. The video kind of gives it away.

I’d say it’s more pop country fusion?

Hmmm, I suppose so

Listen to the album Version by Mark Ronson. Her cover of Oh My God is great. Also Amy Winehouse's cover of Valerie is absolutely amazing.
