It's Not Me, It's You is a wonderful record, and, better than that, a pop album brave enough to have a go at defining the times.
-
It's refreshing how single-minded some of the new songs are, especially when coupled with Allen's lyrical zingers.
-
It's Not Me never hits heights as blinding as "Smile" or "LDN"--but this approach does wind up spotlighting just how special a pop star Lily Allen is, how she captures all that's wretched and glorious about her time without falling into any of its traps, probably because she's clever enough to avoid them in the first place.
-
It’s Not Me, It’s You cooks up nostalgia for Allen diehards, but the elements have been shuffled and re-imagined with pulsating dance tracks that are surprisingly fitting.
-
Even if the new album can be cheaply on-the-nose and opportunistic at times, it's hard to root against Lily Allen.
-
MojoWhile It's Not Me, It's You isn't quite the voice of wisdom, the Mockney chatter has been dialed right down. [Mar 2009, p.108]
-
If once she was sweetly sardonic, now she sounds utterly bored, and collaborator Greg Kurtsin hardly helps with an anodyne synthpop production that makes excruciating excursions into rawhide country, pallid polka and Bontempi showtunes.
