A couple of days ago I noticed Meiko's "Stuck On You" shooting up Australian iTunes (it's already top 100). It was a bit of a surprise given the LA based singer-songwriter's status as the underground Jewel/non-annoying Colbie Caillat. I assumed the song currently features in an advertisement or was recently destroyed by someone on The Voice but I can't find any evidence of a tie-in, so maybe the nation has suddenly developed good taste. "Stuck On You" is so adorable it hurts. The lyrics are cuter than a kitten cuddling a teddy bear and Meiko's voice has a doll-like quality that reminds me of a less depressed Lisa Loeb. And then there's the quirky video (below). My future wife makes turkey meatballs in a muffin tin! Nigella Lawson could never! This tune has huge crossover potential and has the potential to explode with a bit of radio airplay. Expect to hear "Stuck On You" at hipster weddings and commitment ceremonies for years to come. I love it.
