Back in the summer of 2008, Ida Maria told us she preferred to see us naked. After storming the charts with that tune, she’s re-releasing her debut single, Oh My God, another infectious jittery single.

<p>Back in the summer of 2008, <a href="http://www.idamaria.co.uk/">Ida Maria</a> told us she <a href="http://music.unrealitytv.co.uk/ida-maria-i-like-you-so-much-better-when-youre-naked-single-review/">preferred to see us naked</a>. After storming the charts with that tune, she’s re-releasing her debut single, <em>Oh My God</em>, another infectious jittery single.</p>
<p>Idolator remind us that <a href="http://idolator.com/369712/ida-maria-gets-exclamatory">they discovered this tune</a> back in March last year, and naturally loved it:</p>
<blockquote><p>&quot;Oh My God,&quot; which is a solo track in the clip but appears in duet form on her MySpace-posted demo, soars because it&#8217;s simultaneously nervy and nervous, and the jittery video is almost as fist-clenching as the jumpy guitars. More like this, please!</p>
</blockquote>
<p> <span id="more-1540"></span>
<p>Similarly, This Is Fake DIY are <a href="http://www.thisisfakediy.co.uk/articles/tracks/ida-maria-oh-my-god">frothing at the mouth</a> about the single &#8211; which was originally a duet as hinted in the previous review:</p>
<blockquote><p>A game of vocal-tag, her man-backing trying to keep up with the pace, <b>‘Oh My God’ </b>is probably her out and out highlight. Coming together for a bawling blend of scaling guitars and undulating vocal chords at points, drifting into anti-key change softness at others, it rollicks, rolls and generally sounds as fine as a purely pop mess can. </p>
</blockquote>

<p>Frankly, <em>Oh My God</em> plays to much the same formula as <em>… Better When You’re Naked</em> did. But that’s not a bad thing at all. I love those gravelly vocals,&#160; and frantic crescendos Ida builds up to during each verse and which bubble over in the choruses.</p>
<p><em>Oh My God</em> is re-released on 26 January 2009.</p>

<p>We here at Unreality Music don&#8217;t need much of an excuse to cast off our clothes. So, imagine our delight when the virtually unknown <a href="http://www.myspace.com/idamaria">Ida Maria</a> started getting airplay with this absolutely epic tune.</p>
<p>What with Katy Perry <a title="Katy Perry - I Kissed A Girl" href="http://music.unrealitytv.co.uk/katy-perry-i-kissed-a-girl-single-review/">trying the bi-curious angles</a> this summer, and this thumping rock anthem dedicated to getting yer kit off, we like to think that the charts are <em>temporarily</em> a much hornier place&#8230;</p>
<p><span id="more-1087"></span>
<p>OK, so someone whose personal esteem depends on another person being starkers might not be in perfect mental balance, but hey-ho. When a tune this brilliant is the result, we can&#8217;t really complain.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s easy to imagine the doors of student digs bursting open all across the UK this autumn as drunken freshers re-enact the lyrics with whoever they pulled down the SU that night.</p>
<p>Mixtape Maestro <a href="http://mixtapemaestro.blogspot.com/2008/07/ida-maria-i-like-you-so-much-better.html">utters a fantastic line</a>&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p>Who&#8217;d-a thunk that witnessing one woman&#8217;s uncomfortable detour into skank-ville could be as endlessly entertaining as this?&#8221;</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This song gets an enthusiastic <a href="http://music.unrealitytv.co.uk/tag/thumbs-up/">thumbs up</a> from us, and the warning that with a debut single <em>this good</em>, you&#8217;ll be hearing a lot more about this Ida Marie person in the future!</p>
<p>Now just check out a pounding live version of the aforementioned naked track&#8230;</p>
