Thoughts of the Pops
We're off out tonight to see Easyworld. Not literally, the world, as any fool knows, is anything but easy and rejection, failure and heartbreak lies around every corner. No, instead we're off to see the indie band who's current album isn't quite as guitar pop fabulous as their debut (or the mini-album) but is still pretty decent, so we're expecting good things. Don't worry though, despite the indieness of tonights adventure, we still retain our pop heart and to prove this, here's what we learnt from last nights Top of the Pops:-
- Will Young is rubbish at hide and seek. It's clearly not his game as you could clearly tell by his sillhouette that he was hiding behind the screen, hence his very quick exposure.
- Goths are not as good at fighting as we'd expected. Clearly this is the only reason why Cure fans have yet to maul Jamie Cullum to death, which is what we'd hoped was going to happen.
- Keane really are rather fab, aren't they? Though new haircuts may be in order.
- George Michael seems to believe there is still a point in him releasing new records or, indeed, exsisting.
- The role of Raghav is being played by Federico from Big Brother 4. Despite this, it's a good song.
- Despite our thinking it was an impossibility, the interview with Brittany Murphy managed to plumb new depths of pointlessness.
- While I Like The Way You Move by Outkast is rather good, they do appear to have forgotten to include a tune.
- Busted are more keen on performing Teenage Kicks on every TV show going, rather than performing the actual single. At least they jumped this time though.
