The Cheryl Cole Commemorative Plate '09
Yesterday we came across the best Girls Aloud quote ever. It was, of course, from Saint Chez, and was about the nature of true friendship. It so touched us, in fact, that we made a commemorative plate for it, which you can buy after the jump.*

First Aid Kit Do The Questionnaire
We're back from our extended holidays, and we hope you have all had delightfully laid-back and toasty Christmas breaks. To usher in the new year, here's an interview we did with the wonderful and very tall First Aid Kit (aka Johanna and Klara) before Christmas. They talked about Gary Numan and boots, and gave us perhaps one of our most depressing answers ever, while giggling through the whole slightly silly thing.

We Are Still On Holiday...
...and will be back to posting next Monday, January 5. We trust you are having similarly lazy seasonal breaks, and we'll see you in a week.

Drums Of Death On Being Our Single Our Year: We Are Making Him A Certificate And EVERYTHING
We spoke to Colin Bailey yesterday to tell him he had made our favourite and best record of the oh-eight. Of course, readers, he was DELIGHTED. We also ended up making that wnghwnghwnghwngh noise down the phone at him and he did not mind.

Lady Sovereign Has Ditched The Headache-Inducing Ponytail & As A Result, Has Nice New Hair
Lady Sov's beloved ponytail has GONE, readers. But it has been replaced in her new video with a lovely shaggy perm-tastic down-do, what looks really, really nice. Is this enough material for a post?

More La Roux Interviewings, But This One Is Not About Directional Trainaz
Readers, Part Two of our La Roux interview is all about the music, (man). After the jump, find out what prompted Elly Jackson to get rather shouty, and yell 'WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?' As well as a little lesson in how it is possible to make proper pop that is also a bit sadface.

WIN! A Cherry Chapstick (To Kiss Girls With*) & Tickets To See Katy Perry Live
Now here's a wonderful chance to get your hands on some bona fide pop memorabilia. It's the modern equivalent of a pair of blue suede shoes, or Peaches' Fuck The Pain Away pants (of which, readers, I still have a pair). Yes, you can win a Katy Perry Cherry Chapstick, like the giant one she rode at the MTV Awards, only smaller and for your actual gob.

The Lipster's Top 25 Tracks of 2008: 20-16
Our countdown of top songs continues, which is sort of in no particular order until we get to the Top Ten, when it will be squabbles a-go-go round our way. And it has officially been a top year for bonkerness in the rather tricksy 'crossover' dance music category, as you shall see...

We Are Not Being Funny Or Nothing, But The 'Oh's' In Lily Allen's Womanizer Remind Us Of Nessa
As you will know, all-round fun-loving pop cove Lily Allen has done a version of Britney's Womanizer, and it is all charm. Now, it may be that we have been watching too many re-runs of Gavin & Stacey, but all we can think of is Nessa in the 'Oh' bits.
