That'll be Justin Hawkins from The Darkness getting his own back on Bono for not being allowed to sing the line he wanted to.

the question is... will it be available in HMV? and if so how long will it take before they relaise NOBODY like it!!! heh heh
Just heard that Band Aid thing for the first time..... I've never been a fan of the original (there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time - well no shit Sherlock), but this version is hilariously bad.... I nearly choked on my soup when the rap (Dizzee Rascal?) came on, and all that whiny guitar...

But Joe honey, even if you're in the UK, you have the option to turn off the TV or radio, I don't think leaving the country is absolutely necessary!!

And do you mean Virgin?

Taurus (the bull) is determined and peaceful. Although you are not a leader, you will recognize someone with great leadership qualities and follow them. You try to remain the same as everyone else, and are resistant to change. People will enjoy you because you have a good sense of humor and are intelligent. You are a dependable friend who is not scared off by a challenge. You may believe so strongly in your values that you will sacrifice relationships to uphold them. Some Taureans need to be told that they did a good job after accomplishing a task before they feel that they have really accomplished anything. Your friends are people in the same social standing as you, and you rarely go outside of that standing. Although you are calm and generally against fighting, you will fight if someone is provoking you. Your temper tends to explode in violent bursts that are not always directed at the person they should be.

Taureans are prone to throat illnesses, and are at risk of being overweight.

You are faithful by nature and don't indulge in love affairs unnecessarily. You like to be friendly with the opposite sex but do not go far. If you develop a weakness for the opposite sex, this could lead you into trouble.
