Reseña
El álbum que inaugura de forma espectacular la discografía de Lily Allen, "Alright, Still", de 2006, es una de las obras de debut más frescas, ingeniosas y definitorias del pop británico del siglo XXI. Este trabajo presentó al mundo a una artista con una personalidad arrolladora, una pionera de la era de MySpace que fusionó el ska, el reggae y el pop con una lírica costumbrista, afilada y llena de una ironía mordaz.
Por esta razón, el impacto del disco fue inmediato y masivo. El single principal, "Smile", con su ritmo de reggae-pop soleado y su letra sobre una dulce venganza, se convirtió en un éxito mundial y en un himno generacional. De hecho, la producción del álbum, a cargo de colaboradores como Mark Ronson o Greg Kurstin, es vibrante y está llena de arreglos de viento que le dan un sonido único.
Además, el álbum es una colección de crónicas de la vida de una joven en el Londres de la época. Canciones como "LDN" o "Knock 'Em Out" son ejemplos perfectos de su habilidad para narrar situaciones cotidianas con un lenguaje directo y un agudo sentido de la observación. Consecuentemente, Lily Allen fue aclamada como la voz de una nueva generación de mujeres.
En definitiva, "Alright, Still" es una obra maestra del pop. Es un disco que no solo fue un éxito de crítica y público, sino que también cambió las reglas del juego, demostrando que el pop podía ser a la vez divertido, inteligente y socialmente relevante. Por lo tanto, su frescura y su encanto siguen intactos.

Riding through the city on my bike all day
Cause the filth took away my license
It doesn't get me down and I feel OK
Cause the sights that I'm seeing are priceless
Everything seems to look as it should
But I wonder what goes on behind doors
A fella looking dapper, but he's sitting with a slapper
Then I see it's a pimp and his crack whore
You might laugh you might frown
Walkin' round London town
[Chorus]
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why ?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all lies
There was a little old lady, who was walking down the road
She was struggling with bags from Tesco
There were people from the city having lunch in the park
I believe that it's called al fresco
Then a kid came along to offer a hand
But before she had time to accept it
hits her over the head, doesn't care if she's dead
Cause he's got all her jewelery and wallet
You might laugh you might frown
walking round London town
[Chorus]
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice
But if you look twice
you can see it's all lies
Life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life
Life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life, yeah that's city life
[Chorus x2]
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
Sun is in the sky oh why oh why?
Would I wanna be anywhere else
[x2]
When you look with your eyes
Everything seems nice

Now listen I think you and me have come to the end of our time,
What do you want some kind of reaction?
Well, OK, that's fine,
Alright, how would it make you feel if I said you never made me cum?
In the year and a half that we spent together,
Yeah, I never really had much fun.
All those times that I said I was sober,
Well I'm afraid I lied,
I'd be lying next to you, you next to me,
All the while I was high as a kite.
I could see it in your face as you break it to me gentle,
Yeah, you really must think you're great,
Let's see how you feel in a couple of weeks,
When I work my way through your mates.
[Chorus:]
I never wanted it to end up this way,
You've only got yourself to blame,
I'm gonna tell the world you're rubbish in bed now
And that you're small in the game.
I saw you thought this was gonna be easy,
Well, you're out of luck.
Yeah, let's rewind, let's turn back time to when you couldn't get it up,
You know what it should've ended there,
That's when I should've shown you the door.
As if that weren't enough to deal with,
You became premature.
I'm sorry if you feel that I'm being kinda mental,
But you left me in such a state.
But now I'm gonna do what you did to me,
Gonna reciprocate.
[Chorus:]
You're not big, you're not clever,
No, you ain't a big brother
Not big what so ever.
Ah [etc.]
I'm sorry if you feel that I'm being kinda mental,
But you left me in such a state.
But now I'm gonna do what you did to me,
I'm gonna reciprocate.
You're not big, you're not clever,
No, you ain't a big brother
Not big what so ever
You're not big, you're not clever,
Not big what so ever
No, you ain't a big brother [x2]Composición: Greg Kurstin, Lily Allen - Friday nightVer letra 3:06
[X]letra de Friday night
Friday night last orders at the pub
Get in the car and drive to the club
There's a massive crowd outside
So we get in to the queue
It's quarter past 11
Now we won't get in 'til quarter two
It's quarter two and we get to the front
Girl on a guest list dressed like a cunt
She asked security to check inside my shoes
You can play this game with me
But you know you're gonna lose
Look me up and down
I don't make a sound
There's a lesson that I want you to learn
It's if you're gonna play with fire then you're gonna get burned
Don't try and test me 'cause you'll get a reaction
Another drink and I'm ready for action
I don't know who you think you are
But making people scared won't get you very far
In the club make our way to the bar
Good dancing love but you should have worn a bra
Guy on the mic and he's making too much noise
There's these girls in the corner want attention from the boys
I see these girls and they're shouting through the crowd
Don't understand why they're being really loud
Make their way over to me
And try and push me out the way
I'll push her back, she looks at me and says
What you tryna say?
Look me up and down
I don't make a sound
There's a lesson that I want you to learn
It's if you're gonna play with fire then you're gonna get burned
Don't try and test me 'cause you'll get a reaction
Another drink and I'm ready for action
I don't know who you think you are
But making people scared won't get you very far
Don't try and test me 'cause you'll get a reaction
Another drink and I'm ready for action
I don't know who you think you are
But making people scared won't get you very farComposición: Johnny Bull, Lily Allen, Pablo Cook - Shame for youVer letra 4:06
[X]letra de Shame for you
I've been thinking that you've crossed the line,
if you disappeared that would be just fine,
'cause you waste my time and waste my money
and you're not too cool and not too funny!
Spreading your seed all over the town
getting too greedy and messing around:
Oh my gosh you must be joking me
if you think that you'll be poking me.
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on
Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know,
Don't try to deny 'cause my fuse is ready to blow
Its your turn to learn I think that you know where to go
It's a shame, shame, shame for you
Please don't come around and knock on my door
'cause I don't want to have to pick you up of the floor,
when you ask if we can still be lovers,
I'll have to introduce my brothers,
Think that they could teach you a lesson or two,
By the time they've finished you'll be black and blue
You'll be crying like a baby,
A sea of tears they'll call the navy in.
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on
Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know,
Don't try to deny 'cause my fuse is ready to blow
It's your turn to learn I think that you know where to go
It's a shame shame shame for you
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on no, no
Don't take me on
Shattered the lie but you think I don't already know,
Don't try to deny 'cause my fuse is ready to blow
It's your turn to learn but I think that you know where to go
It's a shame shame shame for youComposición: Blair Mackichan, Lily Allen - Littlest thingsVer letra 3:02
[X]letra de Littlest things
Sometimes I find myself sittin' back and reminiscing
Especially when I have to watch other people kissin'
And I remember when you started callin' me your missus
All the play fightin', all the flirtatious disses
I'd tell you sad stories about my childhood
I don't know why I trusted you but I knew that I could
We'd spend the whole weekend lying in our own dirt
I was just so happy in your boxers and your t-shirt
[Chorus]
Dreams, dreams
Of when we had just started things
Dreams of you and me
And it seems, it seems
That I can't shake those memories
I wonder if you have the same dreams too.
The littlest things that take me there
I know it sounds lame but it's so true
I know it's not right, but it seems unfair
The things are reminding me of you
Sometimes I wish we could just pretend
Even if only for one weekend
So come on, Tell me
Is this the end?
Drinkin' tea in bed
Watching DVD's
When I discovered all your dirty grotty magazines
You take me out shopping and all we'd buy is trainers
As if we ever needed anything to entertain us
The first time that you introduced me to your friends
And you could tell that I was nervous, so you held my hand
When I was feeling down, you made that face you do
There's no one in the world who could replace you
[Chorus]
