While I was enjoying my day off today, I decided to kill some of my precious time on YouTube.\u00a0 I was checking out some Pet Shop Boys videos (I SWEAR I AM NOT GAY!!!) and I happened upon something I immediately liked.\u00a0 Now before I continue blabbering, I’ll just state that this instant fondness is as superficial as can be.\u00a0 In a matter of days, I will have forgotten all about it.<\/p>\n

But right now, I’m in love with Isabelle Erkendal, singer for the tribute duo West End Girls<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nJust look at that chick.\u00a0 Damn, she purty.\u00a0 The tall blonde looks pretty fucking sweet too.\u00a0 And they’re Swedish… which means they sing their Pet Shop Boys cover songs with a really cute accent.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And I am a sucker for sexy feminine voices.\u00a0 That’s one of the reasons I got into Ladytron.\u00a0 The voice on this Swedish chick is quite sexy indeed.\u00a0 The songs themselves are run-of-the-mill dance pop, and their familiarity to me makes listening to them all that much easier.<\/p>\n

But like I said, the novelty for such things wears off fast.\u00a0 These girls released an album in 2005, and they haven’t had the interest necessary in their schtick to make another one.\u00a0 Also, the blonde chick left and was replaced by the hot chick’s cousin.<\/p>\n

So check out some of their videos on YouTube if you like cute Swedish chicks singing fun dance-pop while they show minimal emotion and strut about the video set dressed in vinyl suits and brightly coloured hard hats.<\/p>\n

Very ASFR-esque without being overtly fembotic.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
