New Music: Introducing - Saya


This is getting to the point of ridiculousness now. 

I can’t remember when I first mentioned on the blog the growing trend for popstars / potential popstars and musicians to have a promo picture that shows them sitting in the bath, but certainly I was banging on about it as far back as the start of 2014. Ever since that time there seem to be more and more of these loons cropping up on my radar.

Yet I’m still no closer to understanding why.

Why musicians for god’s sake?

I mean, look at other professionals. Take a plumber. Now there’s a job that’s directly related to the world of baths. They fit them all the time. Taps, tubs, waste pipes, the lot. But do you see plumbers advertising their services by sitting in the tub amongst the suds? No.

This probably says an awful lot about the fundamental differences between musicians and plumbers.

Take new potential popstar Saya from Toronto for example. Look at that picture above then ask yourself would you trust her to come round and fix your faulty boiler? Or rod your blocked shower waste pipe for you? Or would you rather that she sang a tune called Wet Dreams to you? That title sounds a bit pervy sexual doesn’t it? But maybe, just maybe it’s about her longing for a leaky pipe above her bed ? If it is she clearly doesn’t understand the concept of staying dry does she? She’s holding an umbrella whilst sitting in a bath fully clothed for f*cks sake.

Popstars. You have to love them and their bonkers attention seeking (but very clean) ways. You just wouldn’t want to ask one to install your new ensuite would you?

Footnote: If you’re a pop star about to sit in the bath for a promo pic feel free to get in contact and explain to me WHY. Thank you.

Saya - Wet Dreams

This has to be the first time the phrase "rod your blocked shower waste pipe for you" has ever been used in a music blog.

I hope it's not the last.
