Orson - ‘Already Over’ (Mercury) Released 20/11/06

The man in the hat and chums are back with another instalment of pop-rock for people with no discerning taste (see also: The Feeling). This record is generic, plodding and has inane lyrics about breaking up with a girl… It’s edgy in a way that only something completely conceived by a record company can be and its even radio friendly! One of the ultimate lines is “You’re a psycho (space) from hell!” They removed the word ‘bitch’! Oh my gosh! They’re so dangerous! I love them! Swoon swoon… The phrase “would be turning in his grave” springs suddenly to mind.
