Ida Maria will inflate you into a gigantic zeppelin, such is the impact of the sweaty excitement of this track.

People drop as flies from the sheer magnitude of Ida Maria's rock-hard, finger-biting, rockalicious sound and then resurrect just to feel their spine crumble with multiple orgasms by the stomping guitar riffs. This fringe-fronted pixie's highly acclaimed first single Oh My God is as intoxicating as it is infuriating rebellious. Ida Maria describes the single as "a song to have a panic attack to - like a desperate shout", too right it is!

The Norwegian-born singer is a female Libertines-esque Bjork with Janis Joplin streaks shown in her full-on energy fizzes. She once cracked a rib on stage and another time head-butted a guitar, continuing the gig with blood streaming down her face. Oh My God!! This is purely smacked-up beautiful!
