Róisín Murphy
Apparently, I just can’t put off posting news about Ms. Murphy the way I can put off posting anything else. “Overpowered” now has a thoroughly charming video that further develops her new promo campaign’s theme of utter fabulousness in even the most mundane circumstances.
Be sure to hear the new b-side, “Sweet Nothings,” on HerSpace.
Update - 6/13: iPop has a pair of “Overpowered” remixes.

Róisín Murphy
Popjustice has the first words and noise on Róisín Murphy’s follow-up to the best album of 2005, Ruby Blue. What they have to say –
A lot of the album is a bit like Goldfrapp meets Annie meets Grace Jones meets quite a bit of 80s soul with Timbaland-esque knob-twiddling, although it is also fair to say Roisin has probably been listening to Bertine Zetlitz….
– makes me very excited. Read more here.
The first single, “Overpowered,” features chubby (not quite fat), leaky (not quite squirty) synths, Róisín’s soulful voice, and a lovely bit with a harp. It just might be the sexiest song to ever use the words “chromosome” and “oxytoxin.”

“Overpowered” will be released on July 2nd, with the as-yet-untitled album following in October.
