"Oh my God, you look just like Shakira, no no, you're Catherine Zeta. Actually my name's Marina."
Marina and the Diamonds is the next big thing that comes from the UK. She will probably be on next years list for the Sound of... 2010 -- BBC poll of music critics and industry figures to find the most promising new music talent (Little Boots won this year). Her debut album The Family Jewels is set to be released on 15th of February in the UK. If you liked Florence and the Machine, La Roux and even VV Brown, better check her out. Also check her songs "I Am Not a Robot" and "Mowgli's Road". AMAZING.

Glad to see people responding to this thread. :heart: Btw, I only have YouTube rip of "Hollywood" so I'll post it on my wall. I can't find any links for her The Crown Jewels EP though.
