Actually you're correct. Without that awful "national anthem" to subvert maybe the Sex Pistols wouldn't have had the impact they had therefore changing the way the British punk scene emerged, lessening it's impact and prolonging the life of the prog rock scene for decades well into the 21st century. It doesn't bear thinking about

But it is the only Rap tune I can mange a half decent rap to, said a hip hop Hippie to the hippie The hip, hip a hop, and you don't stop, a rock it out Bubba to the bang bang boogie, boobie to the boogie.
For the record though a lot of Rap music is sampled beats from popular and not so popular songs. James Brown being the most popular, still. Just one song sampled in 1435 songs. Always wondered if James Brown got any royalties from it.

Am I to presume you are calling me a racist just because I don't like rap music?
No. There's no need to be so sensitive. Im suggesting there are often elements of fear, ignorance or prejudice in aesthetic judgements. Perhaps you could, in keeping with the rules of the game, pick the track or album you wish to have disappeared. Or at least expand a little on the insightful and original critique you made by putting a 'c' in front of 'rap'?

Too true. Including, I'd suggest, on both sides of the opera-versus-football spat upthread.

Traditional weddings.
Why does the day have to be so long?
I have to go to one today. Posh frocks are freezing in church, lots of small talk with people I don't know. It is snowing which will wreck my hair and my posh shoes and I have to drive which, if it doesn't stop soon will be terrifying.

It's a bit more complicated than that...
Wear jeans and a warm coat. It's you that's been invited, not your clothes.

I believe the word "footy" is a home counties affectation used by people who like to present an image of being down with the people.

It's mildly amusing to see the knots into which some people tie themselves trying to support the existence of a multi-billion pound and tax-avoiding entertainment industry merely because of a historical association with the working classes.@srw is precisely that snobby about footy in 'real life', if that's what you're wondering...
If you want to call that amusement snobbery, go ahead.
