Not Fair by Lily Allen
“Not Fair” is another hit from the “It’s Not Me, It’s You” album. Lily Allen, along with Greg Kurstin, penned this track which was released in 2009. The song provides a candid look into a relationship where emotional needs are met, but physical intimacy is lacking.
With a country-inspired beat, Allen sings about a partner who is kind, considerate, and dependable, but fails to satisfy her in the bedroom. The playful tone of the song, combined with its frank lyrics, makes it both humorous and relatable. “Not Fair” is a testament to Allen’s ability to discuss intimate topics with both humor and honesty, making listeners both chuckle and sympathize.
Fun fact: The song’s music video pays homage to old Western TV shows, further emphasizing the country vibe of the track. Allen’s performance, both in the song and the video, showcases her versatility as an artist.
