GREAT NEWS: Jamelia's new video 'Something about you' will be premiered on Channel 4 on Monday 14th August! So tune in at 11.25pm and enjoy!

And it's just keeps getting better. Here's a review of "Beware Of the Dog" a new song that will be on the album. Supposedly, One of the best songs on the album.

So, our new favourite pop song is... 'Beware Of The Dog' by Jamelia.

Here is why.

1. It takes only 1.5 seconds - possibly less - to realise that the next three minutes will be brilliant.

2. It contains a huge sample of Depeche Mode's 'Personal Jesus'.

3. It is a proper sample of 'Personal Jesus' and not that copout soundalike thing the Sugababes had on their last album.

4. It knocks Rihanna's 'SOS' into a cocked hat. We don't know what a cocked hat looks like and if it's what we think it is WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE IT.

5. You could launch a boyband with it, and they would take it to Number One. It could also be a Number One for Rachel Stevens, Beyonce, Girls Aloud and The Kooks. Instead it will be a Number One for Jamelia.

6. It has amazing 'woo-ooh' bits in the chorus, along with screams of "stop! You'd better shake him off, before he gets you" and so on.

7. It is about a nasty man. Down with men! Girl power! Etc.

8. The nasty man thing explains the 'dog', ie the man is the dog. It is not actually about dogs. Especially not dogs like this.

9. The middle eight is a brilliant breakdown thing with Jamelia yelling "I know you hear me... You better reach out and touch me". The last bit sounds like the bit in the Depeche Mode song, which is very clever.

10. It is such a huge floorfiller it means that the DJs at Club Popjustice can FINALLY retire 'Since U Been Gone' from their playlists.

WOW.

HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Sun reviews "Beware of the Dog " also. WOW. That should have been her first single then. I so wanna hear it!

The singer has sampled the rocky riff from the Basildon group’s finest tune (in my opinion anyway) Personal Jesus, and turned it into a dancey pop track called Beware Of The Dog. I’ve had a sneaky listen and I think it has No1 written all over it.
The song was the last track added to her new album Walk With Me, out on September 25.
And record company bosses love it so much they want to make it the next single.
Jamelia also samples the classic organ intro from THE STRANGLERS’ Golden Brown for another song, No More.
Personal Jesus was a hit for DAVE GAHAN’s band in 1989 and it is a great track for live performances because it’s so rocking and raucous.Beware Of The Dog is an absolute corker.
Jamelia rang me yesterday to tell me all about it.
She said: “I love a variety of music. People are sometimes shocked at how wide my taste is. I’m a bit of a closet rocker.
“I had finished my album and had left this track off because we tried five times to get it right but something was missing. But it was nagging at me as I knew it could be great.
“I delivered the album to EMI but then I kept thinking about this track. I knew that if I didn’t try again it would just drive me mad!
“That’s when we had the idea of using Personal Jesus. It’s funny as my boyfriend Darren, the kids and I live in Essex, and some friends were talking about bands from Essex.
I’m a Depeche fan but I never knew they were from Basildon! Anyway, the idea just gelled from there.
“I rang EMI and said that I wanted to hold the album until I had finished this track.
“It meant they were worried about everything being late but they were thrilled when they heard the song.
“It became a compulsion of mine to do it brilliantly.”

***********************************

A UK pop magazine talks about the album:

(Referring to "Beware Of The Dog") It is better than Something About You in terms of smacking you around the chops from the first beat and literally dragging you to the dancefloor to shake your thang.

The album is great. Obviously can't give too much away, but it's in the vein of this new r 'n' pop that seems to be emerging with SOS, Maneater, etc. Uptempo, very positive, dancefloor friendly, all very slick.

A good couple of well known samples on a couple of other tracks too.

Going to be a smash. An international smash as well I reckon.

AND FINALLY, The Album cover is Here! She looks pretty hideous there .

A.S.

^that cover is really really hideous. Im excited for the album though and Beware Of The Dog sounds hot.

Playboy

The cover looks good except for her face. I just saw her videos for Superstar, DJ, Thank You and Somethin About U. And I really do like her. She's beautiful plus her material is some of the best R&B I've heard from the UK. When that new song leaks Mazen please send it to me.

Good song, I like it.
