That's Not My Name. A pretty awful track. But the benchmark by which all Ting Ting's tracks will be judged.
At the least it had personality. Hang It Up, is just a contrived attempt at personality. It's the new single after last years Hands, released in preparation for the long-coming second album. It begins with a drum beat taken straight from Dizzee Rascal's Fix Up, Look Sharp, whilst the track as a whole is channeling RUN-DMC & Aerosmith's Walk This Way. As for the lyrics, I can hang what up exactly? And don't even get me started on that bloody rap in the middle. It's all a bit rock-meets-hip-hop-meets-funk-meets-punk - the Chili Peppers did it so much better over a decade ago. For three years work (since their debut) this is just a mess.
Like the skateboarders bailing in the video, the duo's attempts to be cool are flat and laughable. BYE.
1/5
