It was the best new rave/ R n B mash-up ever - actually it was the only one ever as far as we can remember- Rihanna and Klaxons at the Brits.

continued...

So why not enjoy the moment again and have a quick watch of the 'Golden' version of 'Umbrella' now.

phat track

rihanna is an abomination, klaxons should hang their heads in shame. just for supporting an event that rewards take that, but also for butchering their own work. what next? alex turner crooning alongside beyonce?

Klaxons couldn't be bothered to play live? badly mimed, all so R&B and not rock n roll. tis weak in comparisson to what it could've been if they'd have plugged in and pushed more of their 'backing track' to the front of the song. gotta say though Klaxons drummer is mint, get him in more band photos! themx

Two awful songs combined. Kill me now.

Hideous how enhanced can they make Rhiannas voice? or lack of-I thought the Klaxons were meant to be a bit better than this? and Take that as well- the Brits should be wiped off the face of the earth

Calm down kids. Klaxons were drunk off their asses anyways. They had to deal with the craziness

"It was the best new rave/ R n B mash-up ever - actually it was the only one ever as far as we can remember" - also makes it the worst too.

wow. hardly heard klaxons at all over her
princess_britsfan2008uk [Visitor] //February 21 2008 at 21:59
Quite possibly one of the worst things i ever did hear. Rhianna would get one in the eye though...
