I guess New Zealand is the the hot topic of the week here. First Lorde, and now Princess Chelsea, the chamber-baroque pop project from Auckland's Chelsea Nikkel. With the help of a male friend by the name of Jonathan Bree, she gives us something along the lines of quirky pop in "The Cigarette Duet." It's a conversation between lovers over the girlfriend's cigarette smoking, though there are plenty of more personal issues in this sweet-but-sad ditty. I'm always a fan of a song that makes good use of male-female vocals together, but we've got another winner in the baroque-chamber-mix instrumentals. "The Cigarette Duet" definitely has a quirky feel to it, but you know what I say about quirks? Celebrate them.
