Or, to give it its full title, Everyone Nose (All the Girls Standing in the Line for the Bathroom). The first single from Pharrell and company's third album, Seeing Sounds, finds N*E*R*D taking high-speed hip hop beats and an aggressive, rolling stand-up bass line into a full-on three-and-a-half minute shout-along.

A cheeky dig at clubbing girls and their white powder habits (one assumes you've spotted the not-so-cleverly-hidden pun), it's completely infectious from first to last - and no doubt bound to cause hilarity when that titular refrain is heard in the right context. Enough to get a dead man dancing.

Incidentally, a 'remix', featuring Kanye West and Lupe Fiasco - is a completely different beast, and just doesn't swing and bounce like the original. This is the one you want, pure and er... clean.

If the Tings Tings have the festival hit of the summer, then this might well be its clubland equivalent.- Jamie Sellers
