Not sure of your age, but it's easy to look back and not get it.
We are so used to hearing over polished production and quick fire
instant hooks nowadays.. but then, your reference to wings.. actually, that just
has me worried

I was there for some of it, didn't get it but pretended I did because I didn't want to look like I didn't. Eventually I realised I was right afterall.

Nearly perfect but I do have a soft spot for Mr Diamond and I quite like the Smith even if their reputation and importance has become overblown.

Sorry if I've not got the same taste as you, Dad.
I'm going to my room now. I know when I'm wrong.

Can I put my telly on? I promise it wont be loud.

Night, night.

It must be great being as good as you. On second thoughts........

Again, the same old line about The Beatles being 'innovative'. Again, the same question: How can you be considered innovative when your sound is ripping off other peoples work?

If you want to claim that they populised the US R&B and, later on, Psychadelic sounds then yes, no argument. But they didn't create either, they took what was already there and put it on a bigger stage.

I couldn't believe it myself as the song was a dirge and hearing her speak was painful too. Shirley Bassey showed how to do it properly though.

Off the top of my head Skyfall is possibly the worst ever Bond song. Adele won the Oscar (and the BAFTA) simply for the fact that she's Adele.
