There are certain songs which make my ears bleed : ChumbaWumba - I get Knocked down. Noisettes - I'll never forget you (DFS advert) and "All the Young Dudes" - by anyone who's ever covered it! What drives you mental?
He was probably verging on borderline, but he didn't look that short on stage, so when he offered to drive me home (I did know him) I got quite a shock. He was kinda cute though . . . in an Ewok kinda way.
MarkRae - Mr Collins is a talented musician and writer, but he does not deserve the epithet 'One of the greatest rock drummers ever ...'
I wrote for the first sixty-plus issues of 'Drummer' magazine, I have interviewed and chatted with hundreds of drummers about their influences and heroes, and how many have cited Mr Collins as the reason why they picked up their sticks? Er - none!
He is a good drummer, not a great one, and certainly not one of the greatest rock drummers ever.
Lonely Boy by Andrew Gold - utter cr*p
You're Beautiful by James Blunt and anything from Oasis
