He! He! It's just a shortened version of his surname, that's all! He always bigs up the Manics anyway.

Single performance is true and funny but I don't like it so much so the humour is good.
Thank you. I'm not a fan of INW either, but I can't believe it did that badly. I mean I fkn hate YLA...

I love it. I still think INW did ok considering how fickle the record buying public can be.

KOL have managed to infiltrate the top ten with their new single but it's still a far cry from the days when any half-decent guitar band stood a good chance of getting to the top spot.

I find the repetitive, nursery rhyme-ishness totally cringeworthy. Reminds me of The Wheels on the Bus, and I hate the fact that Nicky considers it one of his proudest moments.

Probably not much point commenting. You all know what I'll say in reply to that!

YLAINE suffers from overkill. They're too addicted to playing it live without the key component that made it stand out in the first place.

Little Baby Nothing gets away with it but they don't play that every single time they do something.
