Amy MacDonald's debut single Poison Prince was written about ,a href="/albums/babyshambles_1105.htm">Pete Doherty, and this follow-up appears to be about the circus that surrounds him.
The young singer/songwriter from Glasgow certainly has immense talent, sketching out characters such as the "rock chick of the century" and "Mr Multicultural, sees all that one can see". It's got a nice, folk-rock backing and it's easy to imagine MacDonald appealing to the KT Tunstall market.
The only worry is that she sometimes sounds a bit old before her time - she's only 19, and teenagers shouldn't be making records this polished and smooth already. Add a bit of grit and rawness to her sound, and MacDonald could be one of this year's big discoveries.
