Its been two years since Lily's debut and the short lived love affair the public held for her. 'Everyone's At It' is the first finished track to emerge from second album offerings. An easy target to lampoon and parody, does she manage to deliver with this slightly jarring effort?
"So you've got a prescription, and that makes it legal. I find those excuses overwhelmingly feeble…The kids are in danger, they're all getting hurt. From what I can see, everyone's at it."
I apologies for even quoting those lyrics. Are we all at it? Are we? Specks isn't.
'Everyone's At It' does it SINK or SWIM?

If I had sold over 2 million albums with my first effort, frankly my dear I wouldn't give a damn...
^^^ stupid comment from clav. if you sell 2 mil or 10 mil on your first, you're alwayz gonna wanna top it and most certainly give a damn.
I've got respect for lily. she doesn't get enough love for what she's done for the london scene. I say that with all sincerity.
Big post from tribe, you guys usually only ever touch on hip hop and rnb.
SWIM.
ps im not at it.
Its the weakest of all her new tracks (up on her myspace) so lord only knows why she/her label are leading with it.
the track SINKS but I'm betting the album will SWIM
@ anon number 1 - actually no, it's not a stupid comment but it IS an extremely cynical one.
Speaking as some-one who's living has been made from the music business for the past 16 years I can honestly say (and I do speak for myself) that I personally wouldn't give a damn, knowing that music is more devalued then ever before means I'd be happy with whatever I get - period. Way I see it it's less about art, more about bottom line.
I too greatly respect Lily having watched her improvement from her first coming out 'til now - my point was to do more with the fact if I were in her position I'd be looking for alternatives as far as my career goes. This business has a real nasty habit of chewing up and spitting out talent...
That is all.
christ he goes on has anyone ever heard one of his songs??
lily will be fine.
clav makes radio jingles thats why hes so bitter.
this track will swim in the charts. look forward to a video.
lyrically its terrible, you can tell she lives in her own bubble. this song is a joke, i won't comment on anything else cos this is all i've heard.
i'm at it!
so are a few of the atcn peeps
SO FUCKING TRUE DAT
haha yep.. we know who you are!
Couple of questions...
You did say 'finished' track didn't you?
With the all the hype that surrounds her does it matter how good it is any way?
Will some idiot define this as a sign of the times?
I WONDER what the concept of the video will be...?
