  1. Nice little snippets, thanks for posting. I don't actually know what a wind turbine is. Are they those windmill things that are usually in the countryside. I've never seen one on anyone's roof before. As for Will saying something in his interview on Radio 1, I truly hope so. He seems to be very quiet right now. I think he must be hidden away writing for the album.

    I do watch the old stuff sometimes but I'm with those who say it doesn't seem like Will anymore, not that he's changed all that much, it just doesn't feel the same. I just like the here and now best I suppose. Going off a bit on a tangeant but now realising who you are Dot on Devoted, I loved your story of your meeting with Will at the Vortex. It's the one I think of. You were so lucky. It came into my mind because I had a nice dream about meeting him last night but would love one day to be able to have a proper relaxed conversation with him, even if it was very short. Oh forgot to say, nice to see you on here Panther. :D
  3. Awww, when I'm drunk I can still type perfectly! Don't know how, to be honest! But no one knows! I've never seen anyone type drunk before! I hope you're okay Filthy/Gorgeous. I'm sure no one holds anything against you. It's just one of those things! We all say things we wished we hadn't sometimes.

    Great performance. :D Her new image does take a bit of getting used to though!

    I felt sorry for her with the backlash she got. She said on the Chris Moyles show that she had picked up the accent naturally. I'm a bit out of touch, did her album do okay in the end?
  6. Rather funny to see comments that you have to be black in relation to this song as it's a Dusty Springfield song! I think Joss has a great soul voice and is definitely a natural singer. I just popped into this forum and this thread caught my interest as I like Dusty Springfield's music. I don't think anyone can do this song like Dusty, Joss missed the point a bit I think. I think it was better sung in an innocent, cheeky way whereas Joss's version was a bit full on. But it was nice to see Dusty on the screen behind, I know Joss is a big fan. :D

    OMG that is so funny! :lol: Cheesy or what?! I thought Will was amazing in the Vortex and I'm really glad he did it. I don't think anyone's a bad fan for only wanting to hear him sing though. He's probably made fans who only want to see him act too. He's very versatile! :D No swinging in on a rope at your next gig though please Will. We have to draw a line somewhere! :D
  8. That is a really good point. It is indeed very refreshing. I love your new name choice SweetWilliamfan! So funny! :lol:
  9. This thread is a tonic. And all because of photos of a very WONDERFUL man. :D http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v307/susanoakes/ind2.jpg
  10. I have a feeling it will be the end of this year. Will that be in time for the Brits? If he doesn't get a nomination because he's not around, I don't think that will be a bad thing as long as he does when he is!
  11. Hmmm, well I'm not sure it was a good idea to start it, I hope you don't mind me saying that Dot, but I do get a feeling that attempts to get to the bottom of reasons for bad feeling get squashed and buried so that they remain under the surface ready to bubble up again at a later date, which I feel is a shame when there is a glimmer of hope we might be getting somewhere by discussing it. But then maybe I just have too much faith in human nature when I see the hope of solution! Oh well! Welcome to Nowillpower! :cheer: Not that I've seen you yet.

    Rexboyo hasn't been on recently either. I pm'd him a while back, but he hasn't looked in to check his pms. But then I think he only posted a couple of times. Welcome to all our new phone people! :D
  14. Hugs to all of you. Personally I have to say that I haven't agreed totally with all the points made on here, though some of them I have agreed with wholeheartedly, and I do understand why some comments might have been upsetting to some, but the tone of the reaction scares me to be honest, totally expected but it still scares me! :blink: :( So though I wouldn't want to be involved, just needed to mention that I'm not enjoying seeing Buzzjack members being put through it, for no more than venting their very real frustrations in a place which I think is the most level headed and chilled out Will forum there is.

    I know the short haircut makes him look older as it emphasises his receding hairline, but his face looks older too and I do wonder whether photos where he looked older were deliberately chosen for the Keep On promotion in an effort to move away from his puppydog image. I wonder if different looks can be created with different lighting. The photo in the green fleece is how he really looks, well at the moment anyway! :D Thanks for posting the photos. :D

    Keep forgetting to come on this board! Love it that you have different little snippets on here and it's so friendly too! :D

    Hello folks, lovely thread. I gave him a CD once, nearly three years ago, and he wrote me a little note to thank me! That was such a lovely thing to do, I could hardly believe it! It wasn't even a new CD because my order didn't come in time and I had to give him my own one! I think it is definitely the thought that counts. The fans that see him wearing their presents are so lucky. :D I think fans have often been inspired with their choices and I definitely find it difficult now to think of what to give him and feel worried that my choice would be inadequate. I would love to think of something special to give him and if I see something I will get it, but I haven't really, so I haven't given him anything.

    Happy Birthday Suggy. Hope you have a great day. :D
  19. Or (f*****g) glass SLIPPER! :lol: Coincidence??! T is for Truly Talented, our new mod and the guy who inspired the title! :D
  20. Indeed! ;) :lol: Great to hear it TT! :D
  21. They appear to be wearing one red sock (or stocking ;) :lol: ) each! Doesn't Will look fabulous and gorgeous despite the get up?! And I've never gone for a beard with lipstick before! :D Conor looks great too, they're a lovely couple. :D
  22. I agree! ;) :lol: :P
  23. That's good news. Well done everyone! :D I suppose if we post lot's of short posts saying things like "I agree" and "Well done" we might even get a higher spot! :lol:
  24. Love being registered in a forum amongst those who I see as reasonable, like-minded people! :D Maybe that should be on the happiness thread but I felt I needed to go away and tear up a telephone directory earlier :angry: so I know exactly where you're all coming from! B) Hope everything goes well for you Chrysalis and you are soon out of your discomfort and inconvenience.
