One Day I'll do a formal introduction piece on them, but today let's just get down to the music!
The Dolly Rockers are currently working with RedOne after parting ways with their British record label. And it's a painful wait. The good thing is that these girls left us quite a few tracks from their old recording sessions to keep us happy until their material with RedOne is released. In Getting Dolly Rockered I will be exploring every single one of these songs, in a desperate attempt to not explode from impatience while waiting for their new single. Enjoy!
Above is "Je Suis Une Dolly," arguably the band's most popular song. The song is a careless little ditty that's just so damn feel-good you can't help but dance around to it like an idiot. The track shows the Dolly Rockers getting a "little wild on holiday" and doing all sorts of fun shenanigans. The track's title means "I Am A Dolly" is English.
One of the song's best assets are the girls' adorable British accents. They're literally almost indecipherable to the American public during the bridge! "Thinksjkhfkdsfhkshfdkgkfhgf for a beer, do you fancy it?" is about as much as I get out of it. It's amazing.
The girls visit a bar full of married men and drink a little too much, then later wake up to realize they've slept with with a "garden gnome with platform shoes and a shiny dome" whose "hands look French, but they're Roman."
The song is extremely fun to sing to, and the video is equally fun!
If you like the Dolly Rockers make sure to stay tuned, I'll be posting another Getting Dolly Rockered post very soon!
