Mick Karn R.I.P.
RIP Mr Karn... let's not forget his sterling solo work, too - and, of course, his stellar work on many Kate Bush albums - in fact, his trademark wobbly bass can be heard on most Kate songs from 82 onwards - many he didn't even get credit for.... My favourite Kan moment is 'Buoy', his collaboration with David Sylvian...... totally beautiful.

CD Cover Competition - Best of 2010
Sorry I'm late - just back from holidays here...... Lewis - the I Blame Coco one for me, I think..... Really not sure which one to enter here though.... http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/gorillazvf.jpg http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/cbf.jpg http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/dawnchorus.jpg http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/danreed.jpg http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/bryanferryolympia1.jpg http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/kele.jpg http://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm76/blissfulignorance_2008/hotchip.jpg

X Factor FINAL 2010
Matt was a deserving winner - but I do have a sneaky suspicion that if Rebecca had saved 'Amazing Grace' for a week and they'd decided on this as a Christmas single as opposed to the seriously duff Duffy track - we may have been looking at a different outcome.

Name Your top 10 Worst Songs of 2010
Well there's little doubt the absolute worst song of the year (and possibly decade) is the Black Eyed Peas' 'The Time' - a record even Jive Bunny would be mortified to be responsible for - a-troc-ious.

'Parallel Lines' - Blondie (Given Away)
It's an album everyone should have anyway, really.... and it's not my favourite Blondie album - that's either 'Eat To The Beat' or 'Autoamerican', which is hugely underrated, I think.

The Human League return...
It's all a bit confusing... is the physical release now out? Or just the download? I've a feeling the physical release is next month? In any case - Night People is phenomenal - easily my single of the year.....

Mikey - Nicole, I think - the PSB one looks a bit heavy metal for the PSBs...

The CD Single/Album Cover Design Comp
Nah, it won't chart - but looking at the charts these past few months - thank GOD for that, eh?! :lol: It's great to see the serious dance magazines behind the single, though - they realise the importance of Human League - without them and Kraftwerk, we wouldn't have electronica, simple as. Plus, the single's getting support from loads of the big-name DJs, mainly because the mixes are phenomenal. Thanks for the comment on mine, too.... took aaaages :wacko:

The Human League return...
a vanity thing, I reckon.... PSB and HL are both in their 50s now. PSB usually make incredible videos, though, bar London and Home and Dry, of course :(

Third one, Notso, I reckon. And seanster - another lovely piece of work.... for a really brillaint single, too... who'd have thought The Human League would come back with a single (and remixes) as fabulous?! :yahoo:
-
The Human League return...
The remixes are on YouTube, too - check the Emperor Machine remix - PHENOMENAL!!!! And the Cerrone mix is pretty special, too.

Your Song | 1st single
I love her voice... but.... I heard Your Song on the radio yesterday - and it's a really unremarkable, bland cover of a true classic.
-
BEADY EYE DISCUSSION
I really love the single.... but then, I think I'm the only person in the world who thought the final Oasis album was the best they'd ever done..... and this isn't that dissimilar. On a related note - has anyone seen Liam's clothing range, Pretty Green? It's a bit pricey - but there's some truly stunning shirts, scarfs, jackets and t-shirts. Google their website.
