Now what shall I use for a bat deterrent?

I'd never even heard of her 'til yesterday.

Sounds like it's just as well.

It shouldn't be Phil and it shouldn't be you, it should be me. Assuming, that is, we're still taking $28 million...

All of them, perhaps, but it seems as if that much is only enough for a single scalp. At least it's one of the worst offenders...

"New Soul: it's like Soul, but without any Soul!"

I'm less worried about boybands, at least they don't generally have illusions about being Artists and I find the music merely pointless and disposable rather than actively bad for my head.

She must be laughing all the way to the bank. $20 million for doing nothing!!!!. Certainly explains why record companies are in so much trouble by signing such ridiculous contracts which never had a hope in hell of paying back, the REM contract is another example.

Oh! That's singing is it? I wondered what it was. I thought there was just some intereference when Radiohead recorded instrumentals.....
