  1. There was no need to after you mentioned The Fall. Literally the worst music ever committed to a recording device.
  2. It's always been like that though, not just in the 80s. Mind, 1981 is a bit of a treat - Ghost Town gets to number 1 for three weeks and reaches #11 on the chart of the year, the top three of the year are a reasonably credible Soft Cell plus 2x Adam and the Ants, but the top ten is also fleshed out by Bucks Fizz, Shakin' Stevens, Joe Dolce and the Birdie Song.

  5. We were sorting through a load of my dad's old football programmes at the weekend and one of them (not so old, obviously) was from Kenny Wharton's testimonial. I can't remember if his interview mentioned his musical preferences but it did say that his post-playing ambitions were to become a football coach or, failing that, "a postman or something like that". Different times. Mind, footballers have always had lousy taste in music, then and now. The fact that Stuart Pearce could be held up as some kind of countercultural icon for liking the Sex Pistols is testament to that.

  8. Originally recorded, of course, by ...also responsible for ...but most famously and bafflingly responsible for
  9. Carver gave us a new team. Unfortunately it was the Micronesia under-23s.
  10. Il bellà dinosaurier show, non è pissado (onestamente) mai lass di Shields mi scranado molto chinkys.
