Ida Maria - I Like You So Much Better When You’re Naked

On the one hand, Ida Maria’s distinctive screech of a singing voice is irritating enough to make you want to either rip your own ears off, or seek out the Norwegian songstress herself in order to undertake a plot to do similar to her vocal chords.

And yet, on the other, ‘I Like You So Much Better When You’re Naked’ is a frustratingly brilliant song. Brilliant because with its wordplay veering on the clever, and a less-than-obvious hook, it’s liable to be lodged in your head before you’re able to actually remove all your clothes.

Which leaves us with a dilemma: like it because it’s a pretty good song, or not because we’d rather hear Morrissey scratching a blackboard than endure Ida Maria’s howl once more?
