oh dear, i think the lyrics are really negative and clearly written by someone with no idea what its like to be nearly 30, and single, i am this and in no way at all do i feel my life is over! in fact, it's just beginning.

Fantastic album, i've never bought any Lily records before but now i will buy her first. i love the catchy melodies and her really don't give a s**t attitude, she is a genius and will be aroung for a long time, she is the genuine article.

It may have been easy to forget that she was a popstar a few months ago - before her massive selling number on single, number one album, and numerous festival gigs - but that really isn't the case now DS.

Lily Allen is by far one of the best singers and songwriters out there; i think Digital spy need to learn that. Why are singers like Brintey, who dont even write their own songs, get better reviews? oh, and before you try and criticise her 'nursery rhymes melodies' i think you should check your dates properly, Lily's first songs and album came out in 2006..

first of all this song lacks the greatness of not fair, her previous song and in my opinion her best one to date. it's a bit dull but as it's lily allen it desrves an okay chart placing.

I agree. All her songs sound like nursery rhymes. Just boring and bland now. But this way better than Not Fair. Oh P.S. I thought was only famous for her big gob and her dad.

"the track is undermined slightly by Allen's nursery rhyme melodies". I agree with everyone below, it's what makes Lily Allen herself! So in fact, she's done a brilliant job making a catchy song!

I knew the lyrics to this song after listening to it for about 5 hours constantly lol. It's very catchy and me and my friends play in the car all the time at the moment when we're driving around. Big summer song! I don't mind the 'nursery rhyme melodies', it's what makes lily LILY tbh.

when she was 22 the...future looked bright.she's nearly 30 now and, she's...out everynight, i see that look in her face she...s got that look in her (eye).she's thinking how did i get here...and wondering (why?) it's sad but it's true how society says her life is already over... (over) there's nothing to do and there's nothing to...say till the man of her dreams comes along,picks her up...and puts her over his shoulder...it seem's so unlikely in this day... + age she's got an alright job but... it's not career whenever she thinks about (it)... (it) brings her to tears CLASS TUNE ( =

I don't think you peeps at Digital Spy understand the magic of Lily Allen. You gave "Not Fair"a similarly average review and criticized this single for its "nursery rhyme melodies". Thats the charm of Lily, that she is singing about these serious, adult issues then giving it a childish tune. Best example is "F**k You.
Mark, UK on August 15th, 2009
Yeah i agree.....its a good enough song but does society say your life is over at 30??? She's making a social issue where there isn't one if you ask me lol

I think it deserves a little more than 3 stars, I normally don't like Lily Allen's type of music but this is very good.

I love this song. So amazing. It's been on repeat on my ipod since I got the album in February and I still love it. I do think she should release Back To The Start next though =) x
Christina on August 15th, 2009
I love this song! It's catchy and the lyrics are so true and brilliant. It's not perfect and she sounds kind of monotone, but I still like it!
Ben Kuwas, Houghton on August 15th, 2009
i love this song, its catchy and a cool meaning for a song, not a break up song for once :D
Natalie from Kent on August 15th, 2009
This is not Lily's best effort and the video is pretty weak. I think it would have been better for her to release Back To The Start. It is probably her weakest song choice from the album.
