Default Boopoll Of The Week (58)

Last week I saw G4 performing Radiohead's 'Creep' on TOTP. I'm still quite puzzled as to what I saw... None of this computes... is society in meltdown? Is this a bad dream? Is it a good dream with a feeling of uncomfortable disquiet?
I wonder what Radiohead make of it... I for one can't condemn making money off the back of this band - I had 5 copies of the 'Drill' EP (used to work in a record shop when it came out, the reps couldn't give it away! Anyone want Tori Amos' first four singles? I have a boxful) which I sold on EBay in the states for a pretty penny...

I agree witrh the above statement. I think that the song is one of the biggest piles of shite that ive heard in a good while. Probably since Nickelback released their last single to be exact. What are G4 all about though? Really...? Seeing these guys on the TV has brought a rather unsettled feeling to my attention. I dont think im alone in the world when I say that what this bunch of twats are trying to do is bring Opera singing to the front line. Fair do's, yeh... everyone to their own and the like! but NO!!! Not when your covering Classics like Bohemian Rhapsody. There are certain songs which bands have written that have a stamp of authenticity on them that says, we wrote this and its so damn good, that nobody will ever... EVER cover it. But what do this buttfuckin bunch of dickheads go and do?

Something else that has come to my attention is that they are all going to die a horrible, horrible death... And then for their crimes to music, they will most definetly rot in hell! I feel that its only fair.

i think the 5 people who admitted they liked it should be named and shamed, he he!

ah they'll be tomorrows chip papers in six months time as will fellow x factor tosser - steve 'actually i do look a bit like fred west with a marti pellow grin' brookstein.

i mean michelle 'fatter than del franklin and that is much more of an achievement than your extremely poor two singles' mcmanus soon disappeared from public eye, i'm sure both g4 and steve brookstein will have equally short 'careers'. still a career on cruise ships is always a possibility - i believe thats what rik 'even fatter than del franklin and michelle mcmanus' waller is doing these days.

sadly another series of the x factor is planned.... surely its about time to knock these kareoke contests on the head????

michelle mcanus is gonna be gracing our tv screens soon on a special edition of You Are What You Eat where hunch backed Gillian McKeith will be testing her poo, depriving her of sweets and making her exercise. I can't wait to see what her weekly intake of food when spread out on the table will look like.
