"I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me"

Video: Annie: "I Know Your Girlfriend Hates Me"

Writing about this track in March, Marc Hogan said it "has the slinky electro-pop strut of that Richard X-produced single, or any number of Saint Etienne singles. It lets Ms. Anne Lilia Berge Strand cutely, brashly try to break up a relationship: 'Who's wearing your trousers now?' she asks breathily. Later, she coos 'ring-ding-ding' over a ring-ding-ing synth. Simple pleasures are a lot simpler in 2008-- fewer people call them 'guilty' anymore, for starters-- but they're still just as necessary." The video has Ms. Annie and a gaggle of dancers shimmying around a studio and performing the song in evening gowns.
