THE BEST SONGS IN THE WORLD EVER.

To compliment my recently completed ‘1000 BEST SONGS LIST,’ here is another that just missed the cut.

1049-Estelle featuring Kanye West-American Boy.
2008-Number 1 single.
Best Bit-At 0.41.It is difficult to convince the world that you are a ‘Gangsta Rapper’ when your favourite drink is Ribena.
Back in the early noughties Estelle was trying to break into the music business, and after a less than successful recording session in L.A. she went for something to eat in a ‘Roscoe’s Chicken and Waffle,’ where she saw Kanye West(see also best songs 849-636-477 and 267,) and John Legend, she got the nerve up, and went over to introduce herself.
Estelle Swaray was born on January 18th, 1980 in London, England, to date she has released five studio Albums, and has had five UK top 40 hit singles.
The beat of ‘American Boy’ was written by Will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, and can be heard on his solo Album ‘Songs About Girls,’ from 2007, the track is called ‘Impatient.’
Of the song Estelle has said,’There are too many man bashing songs, so it was nice to have one with the opposing view, we were also trying to get John Legend into House Music.’ Although Estelle has stated publicly that the ‘boy’ is an amalgam of male friends, it is rumoured to be about American comedy writer Sam Means.
‘Don’t like his baggy jeans, but I’ma like what’s underneath it.’
