New pop find: Chlöe Howl - No Strings

You know how pop songs are all "I'm totally in love with this person and I just can't deny it (d-d-deny it)"? Gets a bit tiresome. We prefer the pop songs that bare their teeth a little. Key examples include Cee-Lo Green's F**k You and Beyoncé's Irreplaceable.

Now we can add No Strings to that list.

It's by 17-year-old newcomer Chlöe Howl (digging the umlaut) and it's a furious sweary pop belter. "You don't even know if I'm the right sex, do you?" she taunts her partner.

Ouch.

Chlöe Howl - No Strings

Recently signed to Columbia Records, Chlöe is so fresh and new that the internet is bereft of useful information. So I spent the last hour stalking her (genuinely very entertaining) Twitter account. Here are my conclusions.

1) She has a big face

The chocolate coin is the size of my face guys. And I have a pretty sizeable face. twitter.com/ChloeHowl/stat…

2) Her dad lives in Legoland

Still watch the legoland fireworks from my dad's window after 13 years. And they're always as good as they were 13yrs ago. Fireworks <3

3) Chlöe has principles

I will never use the phrase 'mash potatoes' in a song

4) Chlöe is an "ideas person"

I can't wait til the day iPhones can identify smells

5) Never feed her a Snickers

Today my minor allergy to nuts has developed into a medium allergy to nuts. Angelina Jolie lips are back.

6) She is a trainee vampire

One of the waiters told me he'd put his own blood in my cocktail. Why.
