Whilst not wishing to defend Katie Melua (I'm not going tonight and do not own any of records, but yes, I would, obviously) I don't think you could really call her a nobody.

Read somewhere recently that she was the biggest selling female artist in the UK last year with 1M plus sales, ahead of Mariah Carey and Madonna, so hardly a nobody.

Crap yes, but a nobody no.

That "Crazy" song was everywhere a couple of years ago, I think it was used on an advert for carpets or something as well.

The thing I really hate about Melua is the fact that ex-Womble Mike Batt takes all the credit for discovering her and is always going on about it.

While I can't stand her music, I'm sure she'd be charging more than street prices for those services Hog You can maybe get that one legged hooker from Market street for 30 quid...cash and carry mind

That price is absolutely, completely ridiculous.

Why not go to the Bank of Scotland branch in the middle of Union Street and stare at the employee there who looks exactly like Katie Melua whilst listening to Katie Melua on your MP3 player? Much cheaper.

Default she was worse than Oasis

and that is saying something,the covers she did were excruciatingly poop but the tour posters were the real hoot...they featured a picture of her which was almost life sized,it is true,she is vertically challenged,any of you leery guys down the front wheek oot yer camera phone for a sneaky under the piano shot? I bet ye did,ye durrty wee pervs.
Mike Batt was there,remember .... he's a womble, but looks like Van Morrison.
