It is good because it only cost £12 to make and is vaguely reminiscent of Gossip’s ‘Standing In The Way Of Control’ video, meaning that by this time next year, The Ting Tings are guaranteed to be as world famous and widely-appreciated as that band are.
The Ting Tings have been getting hyped to high heaven for a while now. Even we did something about them last year and we know literally fuck all about music. Given that the band have found themselves nestled near the top of several critics’ Tips For 2008 lists, we thought we’d have a look at what
Froths MOOBOOSE: “really brilliant on jools Holland…”
Agrees aislingxmx: “i love theM! yea they were great on jools holland real energy!!”
But wait - not everyone is so happy.
Scoffs GassyBastard: “Hate the accent.”
Opines ht589132: “Rubbish song, rubbish video, but I would love to give the blonde bird a good seeing to.”
Concurs davidmariner: “all this is good for is wiping my ass. tho id giv thebird a going ova lol”
LOL, indeed. It seems the fact that Katie White is both a) female and b) hardly what you’d call ugly has not escaped the attention of the YouTube nation.
Muses cableguy12345: “i wonder if ting is another word for hot. if so katie is ting ting ting”
Quite. Perhaps we should leave the last word on the matter to istara:
“Great video - but some encoding advice - you should be able to keep the audio bitrate much higher while still keeping the file size small enough for upload. Just an extra 20k on audio bitrate can make a video sound normal rather than the very tinny, squashed sound that this one has. I usually set my audio bitrate to a minimum of 48khz for the smallest files.
Otherwise it doesn't really do recording artists any justice.”
So now we know.
