My Favourite Tracks
=================

=================
1. Umbrella
=================
Everyone knows this song. I think it's a bit like Marmite, you either absolutely love it or you really hate it. My opinion changes all the time with this track, I like it but it has been played way too much now. When I first heard it I was completely hooked by the rather annoying "you can stand under my umbrella-ella-ella-ay". Annoying as it may be you can guarantee that it will stick with you all day! It is a good track but one that shouldn't be listened to daily, it will drive you up the wall! It's a great party tune though, everyone knows the words to the chorus so it creates a great atmosphere. 9/10 (I would have given it 10 if it weren't for the annoying factor!).

=================
5. Shut Up And Drive
=================
I have to admit, when I first heard this song I really hated it! This is a song that you have to listen to a few times to really get into it, it definitely grows on you. It's a bit different in style
