I've just seen on the BBC News web site that popular beat combo Gnarls Barkley have been at number 1 for nine consecutive weeks - and I realised I haven't heard the song yet. Then I realised I couldn't name any number 1 for years back.
And finally I thought "Do I care?" So I suppose my mid-life crisis isn't as bad as I thought!

I'll have a listen to find out what I'm errrr, missing, MidlandsBob.
I've PMed my e-mail address to you.
Just seen on News24 that a "major chemical incident" has resulted in a pub being evacuated in Bournemouth. My first thought that they had found an old keg of Double Diamond. When I was a lad I took a Party 7 of said liquid to a party. I think I was the only one drinking it - it was foul!

This is what the media isn't telling you about Iraq.
The so-called weapons of mass destruction turned out to be more deadler than they could have ever imagined.
Saddams massive stockpile of Party 7s represented the greatest treat to World peace since The Birdie Song.

I think the allied forces nipped that one in the bud just in time,rumour has it Saddam was about to try to add those to his stockpile as well.
The Gnarls Barkley track is actually like a good old fashioned soul single with a touch of modern electro production sounds like a modern classic to my ears,one that deserves its huge success in the charts.
modern electro production values?????
WTF!
I am seriously missing summat here dunno
Shemess.

Lol Shemess,I meant its been done in a modern way with technology,PCs and all to if the result appeals to a listener or not,thats another matter but it most likely wasn't done with conventional band playing instruments together in a studio like the old soul records were.
Well they're pulling it from the shelves as they're bored of hearing it and don't want everyone to start getting fed up with them.

NandG it could have been worse - Agadoo was also a major threat but Saddam decided to use it as an exercise programme instead. lol :lol:

And then there was Watney's red barrel.....which gave rise to the immortal joke..
Why is a pint of Watney's red barrel like making love on the beach?
Because they're both F***ing close to water!

For some reason I love the bit that goes 'ha ha ha'.
But can't stop changing the chorus lyrics to
"Fish, Chips and Gravy",
"Fish, Chips and Gravy",
"Fish, Chips and Gravy",
"And A tub of Peas"
