Nah, it's just that Motown is the default mode that all manufactured pop bands revert to when times are hard. It's slack and lazy.

Have you heard Dionne Warwick's version of Hamburger Lady?

sorry, when I saw it was throbbing gristle I just thought of nerds at school listening to that for their left-field laugh, whilst listening to crap like Queen as their mainstay.

Whereas from about the age 12 I was into:

-the velvet underground
-the doors
-the stranglers
-the smiths
-all indie and punk

At age 13 I had my own band.

I was also into ska and reggae.

What were you into chuffy at that age? I bet it was a big pile of stinking silly business.

Lend me your cool-list and I'll cobble something together for you.

I was taping the best bits of Annie Nightingale's show.

I can't just transfer my cool status on to you like an unwanted christmas board game.

I get the impression sometimes, chuffy, that you feel entitled to some sort of 'cool' status on this forum. You get down with the geeks and the oldies which is commendable.

But when someone me turns up, you go to pieces. I really think that if we had gangs I would be a t-bird and you would be forced into the pink ladies by your patent uncoolness.
