Diana Vickers - Music to Make Boys Cry

Recommended by Bex:

Miranda Cooper's influence is obvious throughout the album. Vickers cites 80s Blondie as an influence for Music to Make Boys Cry, but the album sounds more like a homage to a decade or so of Cooper-helmed UK pop perfection. 'This is precisely how modern pop should be done.'

The album came out of nowhere for me, as I enjoyed her 2010 debut I thought I'd listen. Just wow. Lots of energy, 80s disco hooks and that same distinctive voice. Try if you like: La Roux, Paris, dancing.
