Video of the Moment #1404: BON-BON

Turned off by Lily Allen‘s latest video and all that twerking? Maybe you’re like me and would prefer something a little more innocent, but with a message no less important in value. Enter BON-BON, better known to her mum as Sian King, who might just be the next big indie pop starlet: she’s already garnered attention from 6music’s Tom Robinson,and performed at Glasto this year.

We’re told ‘She Don’t Want to Know’, the title track off her recently released EP, is “about a friend who doesn’t know how good she’s got it”. Sonically, it’s got a wonky backing rhythm and a desperately feminine vocal reminiscent of Lesley Gore, and I can’t get it out of my head. Watch the relentlessly colourful promo video for the song below.
