B*Witched B*Witched Lyrics

Just when you thought things couldn't get any sudsier, Ireland sends us their entry for the never-ending Teen Pop Summit that seems to be holding the charts hostage. Marketed as Celtic Spice Girls, B*witched are actually a G-rated version, complete with voices so light and sweet you can barely hear them through the whistles, dance beats, and faux guitar solos that litter this debut. There's a bit of everything here: echoes of Jackson 5 ("Rev It Up"), the intro from "Venus" ("Freak Out"), and song titles straight out of the '50s ("Oh Mr. Postman"). More frothy than their male counterparts, but harder to swallow, B*witched come off like giddy kids-television hosts. The earnest ballad "Castles in the Air" is perhaps the only track that won't offend older (read: 15 and up) ears, but the teenyboppers will love the whole disc. --Rebecca Wallwork
