...I wonder how many posts a thread on Michael Jackson would get... :cool: Clapton urging people to vote for Enoch Powell eh? And if it wasn't for "black" music ... etc, etc ... If that's what coming off the drugs does for ya he should've carried on, hasn't done Keef any harm. And Costello said he did it when he was drunk, ah, well that excuses it then ... My most recent disappointment quote-wise was that Mariah Carey did NOT say that she envied starving Africans because they were thin. Would be nice if she could hit just the ONE note occasionally though. As for MJ I think every poster would get a cheque in the post and the thread would die :D |

the next thing you know, were be having birthday cake on Phil's birthday and having gatherings to appreciate what a genius he is ;) |
Re: Phil Collins
Perhaps we should "introduce" the Yanks to Ian Dury and the Blockheads?? That would start a interesting thread!!

Ian dury and the Blockheads toured the USA back in the late 70's supporting Lou Reed and ending in California with thier own dates. Guess he didn't take off their though as he went back to the UK and stayed..... Wonder what they would think now? Hit me with your rythum stick would probably be a blast with the teenagers... LOL |

Re: Phil Collins
Since moving stateside, it seems like I've spent a lot of my time introducing people to the best band to come out of the new wave scene, or as they're more commonly known The Jam. It is actually interesting to play stuff for people which is big in the UK, but is relatively unknown over here.

I'm really looking forward to expanding my favourite-band list when I move on, a change of scene is always refreshing. |
Re: Phil Collins
Conversely, I'm looking forward to discovering some new music on my return to England. The US music scene is either tired, mainstream, full of (c)rap, or unobtainable. I always seem to discover something fresh when I return to England.
Having said that I can specifically think of two exceptions this year. The Scissor Sisters, an American outfit, released a fantastic album this year. And Duran Duran are releasing an excellent, fun, poppy album - "Astronaut" - in a couple of weeks. It's the first one that the original lineup has released together since 1983 (not counting their live album "Arena"). |

Duran Duran - I'll skip that ... |
Re: Phil Collins
Keane are pretty good if you are intrested in the kinda Travis/Coldplay melancholy stuff, but prolly not something you will put on for fun. Snow Patrol are another good band (I think it was you who said check them out Dave? thanks for that) I detest the Darkness, absolute shite. One of the most iritating voice to come out of the UK. The Jam are alright, have major troubles understanding what he's singing 99% of the time though.
Got that Franz Ferdinand album after all the hype, some nice touches but overall pretty naff. The new(ish) Charlatans album is pretty good and Meltdown by Ash. :beer: |
