WigWam-the-tune is all kinds of ace, but I do hope they have some actual songs up their sleeve.

Being the Tim that wrote that story I can also exclusively reveal (like they do in the newspapers) that she, apparently, has hundreds of 'Betty Boo' songs that she's amassed over the years.
That wasn't all that interesting an exclusive was it? Sorry.

I'd certainly kill people to hear the Missing Years of Boo. Who knows where she could have gone musically from the genius of Boomania?

Man: "Doctor, sometimes I'm a wigwam, then other times I'm a teepee." Doctor: "The problem is, you're two tents."
Oh that joke made me all nostalgic for Ver Hits. Neil Tennant told it an interview back in the '80s and you can practically hear the stony silence emanating from the pages as he fumbled to explain it to whoever was interviewing him.
Back on topic, I'm glad to see La Boo back. It's the one comeback that doesn't feel like a soul-less, dead-eyed cash in to rip off fans and evoke 'School Disco'-esque nostalgia à la Take That, All Saints etc.

"Wigwam" was played at Clique in Manchester last night - unfortunately the dancefloor was empty so I could only sort of tap my feet and sing along.

I love this "song". They should do a fan giveaway where you can get packs containing a T-shirt, stickers and notebook with the logo on, and a Betty Boo wig.

This song is just superb. And the video is hilarious. Made me dig up my old copy of BOOMANIA which is just a masterpiece. The lyrics to Hey DJ (especially the bit about Aunt Lizzy) always make me chuckle. And whilst I am at it, what a pop injustice was the fact that LET ME TAKE YOU THERE was not a bigger hit. LOVE that song!!! Hurrah for Boo!

Boomania still sounds as fresh today as it did back in the early nineties. It's a masterpiece!

Help! I must have a photo of Boo as she appears in the video, but cannot find one anywhere. I want my hair just like hers. It is essential to my mental well-being.

Finally heard it. I don't think it will be a big hit, it has top 30 written all over it. I hope I'm wrong though, because I do love Betty Boo.

I like it. I really want it to be big. But I want their next single to have a proper singalong chorus with some proper Betty-esque rapping. I guess she had to move on, but I miss the Betty of Where Are You Baby...
