Le Stu Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 How many of these are covers?That's not rhetorical, I want to know but I listened to The Stranglers one and I can't risk any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted July 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Presumably tracks 12-17 are covers.Contractual Obligation Album to fill out three album deal anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemonade Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 How can you have a best of album when you only actually have two albums? That's ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Fantastic value though, at 2.98.Out of the bucket of crabs, into the bargain bin... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigsby Posted July 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 3.98 for the actual CD at HMV.hmv.com: music: Best Of (2009)Her record company obviously knew that this would appeal to the discerning listener who is willing to spend serious money on premium product and priced accordingly.

waltz Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 How can you have a best of album when you're unbearably shit and not even that commerically successful? That's ridiculous.Fixed!(8 characters) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monster Zero Posted July 29, 2009 Report Share Posted July 29, 2009 Arf at sole Amazon review from 'Amy McDonald'.....and fact that the '...Punk Rocker' dirge is on it twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placeboboy Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Its a real laugh reading the comments on some forums and reviews that have popped up on the internet about this release, I cant stand her myself but even im taken aback at just how much she is disliked, There seems to be very little, if any, middle ground with her, folks either think she is good or loath her and are very vocal about that loathing . I wonder why?, It definately goes beyond the normal she is good/not good debate about an artist, People actually hate her and are saying so all over the Internet, Strange eh?

I wonder why?, It definately goes beyond the normal she is good/not good debate about an artist, People actually hate her and are saying so all over the Internet, Strange eh?It's probably because:A) That Punk Rocker song is an ultra annoying novelty pop song.B) The local press here talk about her as though she is the second coming of Janis Joplin.

Bigsby Posted July 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 Placeboboy's right though, if you have a look around the web it's not just North East folk that get pissed off with her. Apparently people are pissed off not only by her shitey song but also all that "millions wayching via podcast" made up PR bollocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's mainly the publicity vehicle she used to attain success that gained her the hate. Still, all publicity is good publicity with the caveat that your skin is tough enough to deal with the bad rep it gives you.And her music is really fucking awful.

neepheid Posted July 30, 2009 Report Share Posted July 30, 2009 And her music is really fucking awful.Stop it, you're giving her inspiration for more material! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unbroken Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 fucking hell.just had a listen to the last few tracks by previewing them on amazon.Her cover of Kiss From A Ross by Seal...fucking hell. DreadfulI loved the fact that she covers May You Never by John Martyn, on KEYBOARD, because she cannot play guitar unless its like a retard. She massacres it beautifully too.Also, listen to the foo fighters cover, pretty certain she is off key with the singing.I don't think my mum would even like this...

Monster Zero Posted July 31, 2009 Report Share Posted July 31, 2009 I'd rather be fucked annally with a meat cleaver than listen (or read) Sandi Fucking Thom.Was that meant to be anally or annually?This is not me being pedantic, I am curious as to just HOW much punishment you would take.....
