Take it from us: Fridays are top for Scandinavian pop. Last week, we posted our favourite Swedish example of the year so far – Lykke Li’s glitchy, slinky shadowboxing number, I’m Good I’m Gone. This Friday it’s Norway’s turn to flutter its eyelashes, and we’re very pleased that those eyelashes belong to the fabulous Annie, the Richard X-squiring, gum-chewing Norwegian pop goddess whose debut album, Anniemal, was so deliciously sharp and sweet.

On our first couple of listens, I Know Ur Girlfriend Hates Me is the cool pop cousin of the Pussycat Dolls’ Don’t Cha, including in its 3 minutes 12 seconds lots of talk of trousers, "ding-dings", and what sounds like a sample of an ice-cream van (a 99, cheers guv, raspberry sauce). Plus it comes an impeccably colour-coded video that makes us want to pop to Boots and apply cream eyeshadow in a flurry of rainbow colours immediately. Shame I'd personally look like a Care Bear after a car crash, but them's the breaks.
