Surely there was malice aforethought. It resides in the bowels of Satan's very own jukebox along with Come On Eileen and Margarita Time.
Thinking of Come On Eileen, I saw Kevin Rowland on Jools Holland sing a very decent song to close the show. Then as the song ended he started speaking complete rot. I just can't get why that happens as well. Pretentious git!

Van Morrison
Neil Sedaka
Marvin Hamlisch
Also re the quote "Music made by people who misunderstood Sniffin Glue's "Here’s a chord. Here’s another. Now form a band”
Mark P is happy to tell anyone that despite loads of people saying that was a Sniffin' Glue quote - it actually came from the fanzine "Sideburns" and later reproduced in "Strangled". He'd love to have coined that quote!

Neil Sedaka! I forgot him! I rather wish it had stayed that way. Marvin Hamlisch ? Name rings a bell but I can't place him. Probably for the better.

Don't know much about the guy, but Iread an interview with him, and he came across as a complete knobhead, and another interview with ex band members, and grudges aside, he came acrosss as an unpleasent, arrogant control freak.
