Alesha Dixon - The Boy Does Nothing

The Boy Does Nothing is the new single from UK superstar Alesha Dixon.

The Boy Does Nothing is the first single to be taken from the album The Alesha Show which is available from November 17th 2008.

Simultaneously one of the classiest, sassiest and most perfect pop singles for years The Boy Does Nothing tells the tale of an inept, two-left-footed fella whose experience of rug-cutting begins and ends with a Saturday job at Allied Carpets. "I adore the line 'if the man can't dance, he gets no second chance'," Alesha says. "I love to be impressed by somebody's dance skills."

The deeply glamorous video for The Boy Does Nothing was directed by the superb Michael Gracey, right hand man to the legendary Baz Luhrmann, and Art Director of Moulin Rouge.

Alesha describes the song as "bottled happiness" and is the sort of exciting jamboree we've come to expect not just from Alesha but from the song's producers - Brian Higgins and his Xenomania team - pop maestros behind artists like Girls Aloud, Gabriella Cilmi and Sugababes - but while it hits the pop bullseye it's also a brilliantly left of centre, effervescent introduction to an album which dips its toe effortlessly across a plethora of music styles from 60s R&B and perfect pop, right through to classic ballad, while documenting life's ups, life's downs and life's sideways bits.
