The track, which was premiered by Julie Adenuga on Beats 1, is in line with their groovy debut “My Boy”. “Say It” is described as “an anthem for all of us to break free and celebrate the wonder of human hearts and minds”. It’s quite ambitious but you can expect at least a good dose of vibes and great souvenirs from your adolescence. By the way, yhe artwork is also a real time machine.

Girlhood is the duo of Christian Pinchbeck and Kenyan-born Tessa Cavanna. Their influences are ranging from Lauren Hill to Barry White, from Dean Blunt to The Avalanches but the guitar will also remind you of iconic bands such as TLC… which is obviously marvelous!

Girlhood are on the internet, keep it up via Facebook and Twitter and re-discover their debut single “My Boy” below:

Every year, it’s the same. Marketers do their job and frustrate us with Valentine’s Day. Their manipulations are so strong that everybody suddenly feels an irrepressible desire, or need, to be in a relationship. But why not staying single, at home, alone? There’s no shame to be alone, whatever the reasons!

If you were dumped on Valentine’s day, you probably hate LOVE. That’s why we couldn’t make this playlist without Kelis‘ “Caught Out There”, Janet Jackson‘s “What About”, or Marianne Faithful‘s caustic ” “Why’d Ya Do It?”, amongst others. But please, don’t beg your lover like Nina Simone: better alone than in bad company! Don’t be ‘foolish!’ Be strong as Betty Davis!

If you have some difficulties to move on from your previous relationship though, and if you are still obsessed with your ex, stalking him/her in the club to see his/her ‘courtship ritual’ with a new pretendant, then Robyn is here to capture those -horrible- feelings! If you prefer to cry alone and remember all those amazing moments at home, alone, then you won’t resist Regina Spektor‘s “Samson” or Kelsey Lu‘s fading call “Dreams.”

If like Little Boots, you are new in town, or alone in “Tokyo” like Lianne La Havas, it can be difficult to meet someone. At least, you have some good excuses, especially if you don’t know any clubs where you could meet people like you – as Russian duo t.A.t.u sang it in their cover of The Smith‘s anthemic song “How Soon Is Now?”

Lastly, for those who try hard – too hard – to find someone but suffer from an inner beauty that doesn’t really shine out of their body, you will recognize yourself in TLC‘s “Unpretty” or Janis Ian who knows exactly to be 17 and not to be a ‘beauty queen’.

It will maybe come one day, or maybe not. Anyway, who needs a lover for Valentine’s Day when you can fuck with yourself? [And drink wine wearing pyjamas]

Tip: For those who are already drunk, you can start the playlist in the other way: Fiona Apple is easier to listen to when you’re drunk and while you will be sobering up, the playlist will slowing come back to mainstream 😉
