haha, sort of reminds me of "quiet life" era japan, for some reason.

i do, and i remember saying that there was a different song by them that i liked better:

17. Lillix - "It's About Time"

Barack HOOSTEEN Obama (some dude), Monday, 10 November 2008 15:00 (seventeen years ago)

20. Kelly Clarkson - "Walk Away"
21. The Veronicas - "When It All Falls Apart"
22. Gwen Stefani - "Cool"
23. Ashlee Simpson - "La La"

the irony of me being known at anti-teenpop warrier/Kogan enemy #1 on this board is that I do love this kinda shit most of the time.

Uh, Rubinoos/Avril fiasco to thread???

24. Don't Let Me Get Me - Pink
25. Break You - Marion Raven

Geir Hongro, Monday, 10 November 2008 22:46 (seventeen years ago)

28. Tiffany Giardina - No Average Angel
29. Lillix - Because
30. Shebang - Romeo
31. Lucy Woodward - Dumb Girls
32. Liz Phair - Extraordinary

basically i love this stuff because most of the time it reminds of the Fort Apache sound at its bubblegummiest (ie Juliana Hatfield's "Universal Heartbeat") - my favorite kind of indie back when i was an indie-lovin' teen, and the only kind of indie that i'm still fond of.

sub-question: pretty much the best ABSOLUTE FUCKING WORST shit ever?

idk what number we're on, but: Girls Aloud - No Good Advice

ILX MOD (musically), Tuesday, 11 November 2008 07:36 (seventeen years ago)

to tipsy mothra, I ran into this recently, the youtubes you can't embed say "embedding disabled by request" up in the url box. They still play on the site, just nowhere else.

james k polk, Tuesday, 11 November 2008 07:54 (seventeen years ago)

Pop punk is OK. At least among the better stuff the kids are into these days. Not essential, of course, but there are some good and catchy tunes in there at times.

Geir Hongro, Tuesday, 11 November 2008 13:24 (seventeen years ago)

She's probably too "indie" for this thread, but--Charlotte Hatherley!

"Bastardo," "Kim Wilde," "I Want You to Know"

Seriously excellent stuff, intelligent, spazzy takes on bubblegum. They sound like megahits from an alternate universe.

telepathy_rock!, Wednesday, 12 November 2008 13:55 (seventeen years ago)

did the dimestars ever release their album ?
i picked up the promo copy years ago - and its chocka with this type of stuff including a cover of guitars-n-synths cover of Echo Beach.

mark e, Wednesday, 12 November 2008 14:04 (seventeen years ago)

Compiled a lot of these on a bunch of <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=a1fc9b47b386bb92ab1eab3e9fa335ca65852a9083b6963d";>teenpop mixes</a> I did about a year ago for Stylus:

A few that fit the description (some more than others):

Nikki Cleary – Summertime Guys
The Dollyrots – Because I'm Awesome
Blog 27 – Hey Boy
Ruby Blue – That's What Girls Do
Skye Sweetnam – Sugar Guitar
Sara Paxton – Take a Walk
Hilary Duff – The Math
Lindsay Lohan – Who Loves You
Tegan and Sara – Nineteen
Hoku – Another Dumb Blonde
Hayden Panettiere – Your New Girlfriend
Ashlee Simpson – I Am Me
Amy Studt – Just a Little Girl
Hope Partlow – Sick Inside
Joanna – Screaming Infidelities
Taylor Swift – A Place in This World
Marion Raven – End of Me
Lillix – Doughnut

From this year, maybe Krystal Meyers - Beautiful Tonight and a few off of Jordan Pruitt's album, maybe. Oh, and the best one from this year, Miley Cyrus - Fly on the Wall (probably the only good song on her new album)

dabug, Wednesday, 12 November 2008 21:16 (seventeen years ago)

Woops, the mixes are here

dabug, Wednesday, 12 November 2008 21:17 (seventeen years ago)

Gah, sorry, here

dabug, Wednesday, 12 November 2008 21:23 (seventeen years ago)

did the dimestars ever release their album ?

i never saw it - is it as good as the two singles? would love to hear the whole thing...

thereminimum chips (electricsound), Wednesday, 12 November 2008 23:16 (seventeen years ago)

its been a while since i heard it mr chips, but its all in the same vein and a lot of fun if memory serves me right.
i'll dig it out and sort you out if interested.

mark e, Thursday, 13 November 2008 08:59 (seventeen years ago)

totally! that would be awesome

thereminimum chips (electricsound), Thursday, 13 November 2008 12:07 (seventeen years ago)

This both promises and disappoints more than any other genre, sadly. I want less brattiness and more swooning.

Chopper Aristotle (Matt DC), Thursday, 13 November 2008 14:35 (seventeen years ago)

Demi Lovato - Get Back is pretty good.

dabug, Thursday, 13 November 2008 17:49 (seventeen years ago)

electricsound. hope you got the tip off re the dimestars album via the ilx email system. have really enjoyed it today ..

mark e, Monday, 17 November 2008 16:36 (seventeen years ago)

A local (NYC) singer named Tiffany Randol and her band Valeze do great - and sadly underdiscovered - work in this vein: http://www.tiffrandol.com/

Janet Jackson's 2004 single "Just a Little While" is a lost treasure of this

We Should Be Dead - Forget Romance, Let's Dance

Black Arkestra, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 03:14 (eleven years ago)

miley's "seven things i hate about you," most of the first two demi lovato records

this is basically my favorite sound

emo canon in twee major (BradNelson), Wednesday, 28 May 2014 03:21 (eleven years ago)

Carly Rae Jepsen - I Know You Have a Girlfriend

MarkoP, Wednesday, 28 May 2014 03:59 (eleven years ago)

This should have been one of the genre's trademark singles, but I don't think anyone even heard it. Was featured on the soundtrack of something called D.E.B.S., which apparently failed to provide any kind of bump.

ten months pass...

how the hell this album made it onto a mary-kate and ashley soundtrack escapes me, both in terms of "this is nowhere near anywhere close to high-profile" and "WHY DO YOU WANT TWEENS LISTENING TO THIS," and I question the intentions of whomever was responsible; that said, it's great: http://mzmoxy.bandcamp.com/album/lick-n-listen

katherine, Friday, 3 April 2015 15:49 (eleven years ago)

TeraBrite can make any song sound like this.
