Morrisey in Eurovision

Fits his image perfectly I would have thought. Now what song?

Dear God, Please Help Me
I Know It's Gonna Happen Someday

Set me thinking about other people to front the UK entry:



John Lydon and Keith Emerson agree to do the 2007 Eurovision - you read it first here!

Nothing would surprise me with John "Hypocrite" Lydon. After the reunion tour and I'm A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here it can only leave him having his own chat show. I'd love to see him on Eurovision so everyone will finally realise what a disappointment he is.

Seems made for each other . Them and the Eurocrap song contest.

Live from rest home.

Easy to forget that the Sex pistols were instrumental in turning a very stale mid seventies British music industry on its head. For that alone I am grateful.

I don't begrudge the reunion tour either, after all if the band can't make some money off past glories then who else should. After all they did call it the 'filty lucre' tour so no disguising of the motives. As to 'I'm a celeb' -as little of it that I watched, Lydon came across as a sharp witted, open minded individual.

What a load of bollox.

Me too. Some of the dinosaurs of Rock have rightly returned stronger and regained their heritage but it was at time when music needed a massive kick up the Jacuzzi.................. and clearly it paved the way for 'less serious' but equally entertaining and thought provoking music

In reference to your most eloquent and broad minded "what a load of bolox' comment I feel the spirit of punk running through me when I say go stick it where the sun don't shine.

I would have preferred to use the type of language Johnny would approve of but forum rules don't allow.

Didn't know Morrisey was in the Sex Pistols

Diccus : Ces Jacuzzi (and The Slumlords) are American, does that preclude them from being in Eurovision?

I think you might have missed Howard's irony

I was commenting in 2 ways. I think SPs were a waste of space. The "punk" era however did produce some good sounds.Also the belief that the punk generation was the first to say fuck the system or what ever. Many more erudite earlier anti establishment acts have got the message of a revolution over so much better.
The so called dinosaurs carried on and people still listened, when most of the punk acts dissapeared without trace.
You could(I don't) say that rap was more significant, it certainly lasted longer.
