Scouting For Girls perform an acoustic version of their single "Famous" for www.sugarscape.com:
This hooky little offering is taken from the band's second album "Everybody Wants To Be On TV". The happy sound and bouncy rhythm are overlaid with some (at times) fairly cutting lyrics on the shallowness of modern pop culture. Less incisive, perhaps, than Lily Allen's lyrics on "The Fear" but it still hits a few marks: "I want to be known for just being famous – I can't act, I can't dance, I can't sing, but I'm young and I'm pretty". Ouch! The song will be a hit, however, because of the velvet glove of its catchy singalong chorus rather than the punch of the lyrics.
