Over today I've noticed that since I implemented the spam filter there have been fewer, less shocking votes. So I was wondering if I should start again? Vote here: http://www.strawpoll.me/14981347

The spam filter doesn't make a difference surely? People are clearly rigging it by using a VPN. You still just click the "I am not a robot" thing and carry on...?

It's not going to be long before I won't be able to choose. My favourite album of all time by quite a long chalk.

Interiors is out, we're too tired to try and understand why.
And Take the Skinheads Bowling is the second departing B-side.

I like the ending of Interiors as it makes me think of those clips of the series Noel Edmonds used to put into his House Party between items.
The band probably imagined it used for sporting replay montages.
And Noel didn't use it in his series. Just my nineties mindset.
This is why I don't bother with the BBC now. I'm light entertainmented out.

Love the bass on Interiors, and the sentiment of the song.

Okay. I admit it. I love Interiors. You are all wrong.

Interiors is great - the demo is very different, but I guess they couldn't work it in to a studio version and just decided to nick the Nothing Can Stop Us Now by St Etienne arrangement for the verses.

Edit - or maybe it was from Dusty Springfield, the source of the St Etienne track?! Didn't realise it was a big sample.
