When You Wasn't Famous

Don’t you hate it when you become famous and pulling girls just doesn’t hold that challenge anymore? So you go for celebrity girls and find yourself quaking like an acne ridden fool again? Mike Skinner does. The first offering from the similarly-themed LP The Hardest Way To Make An Easy Living, ‘When You Wasn’t Famous’ (for that’s the title what it were given), is as packed to the rafters with Skinner’s witty couplets as we’ve come to expect. What’s progressed is the breadth of his musical scope, with some calypso action giving the track a Lilt-friendly feel. A welcome return.
