I DON’T CARE, I LOVE IT, writes Charli XCX–the just turned 21-year-old UK songwriter who penned the summer (double-platinum) smash for all the 90s chicks, made popular by Icona Pop this year; on top of releasing a debut LP, “True Romance” on IAMSOUND.
Charli XCX returns with another throwback–this time reinventing another song the Y generation can chant, “I WANT IT THAT WAY” from the Backstreet Boys, performed live for The Onion?s AV CLUB: UNDERCOVER SERIES:
