EMI are shitting bricks…well, probably not - but the entire, original pressing of Annie’s sophomore effort ‘Don’t Stop’ leaked some days/a week ago. This won’t be that big of a problem, of course, if they’re having her “re-record” any significant amount of material.

This brings us to our (albeit, delayed) song of the week, Annie featuring Datarock’s Fredrik Soroea “I Can’t Let Go”. Songs as good as the featured are a dime a dozen on the album, both frankly and thankfully! As if we ever had any doubts…? The following would have been enough for us, extra tracks are fantastic bonuses:

01. Songs Remind Me Of You
02. Songs Remind Me Of You
03. Songs Remind Me Of You
04. Songs Remind Me Of You
05. Songs Remind Me Of You
06. Songs Remind Me Of You
07. Songs Remind Me Of You
08. Songs Remind Me Of You
09. Songs Remind Me Of You
10. Songs Remind Me Of You
11. Bad Times
12. Loco

Smack dab between two of the album’s strongest tracks, “Bad Times” and “Marie Cherie”, “I Can’t Let Go” stands out as Annie’s first studio/vocal collaboration. Not to mention it has some fine, slick, near-Datarock sounding production, imagine that? It’s a standout on the megamix, it’s a stand-out for the album, generally, it’s amazing.
