Anyone else watch this, it's been on repeat on bbc three for **** knows how long now, possibly years.
....I've found a new love, and it's for people who appear on these shows and criticise for the sheer point of criticism.
Music critics, people who get paid to criticise music ....
"shiny hapy people, well i dont know what its like over in california but over here in britian were not so shiny and happy, so you can just **** off back to sunny california"
"what rock band writes a song about war anyway?" - That being refered to the manics who were portrayed as these studenty, self-loving whiney immitation intelectuals.
There was no real reasoning behind the criticisms, I got to watch a bunch of people count down this list and make complete arses of themselves. If you don't have a genuine criticism then why ****ing bother coming up with one!!!
On the other hand Most of the list seemed agreeable...
However im rather fond of

Also I feel you can't really criticise a song for being over-played, or for the people that listen to it. I will srvive, although immediately i think of desperate unattractive rat-women with bad karaoke, was a great number. Can't knock it because the people around you are doing bad version of it. |
