So, This New Singer Malarky!

If they carry out this idea to have a new singer (but not replacing James or I'll swing for them!) who would you want?

Edit - Yes, I realise I have probably spelt Charlotte's surname wrong. Don't start!

I think Gutless Wonder should do it, I can’t imagine anyone who would be more excited about being the newest member of The Manics.

Plus you have to be a better singer than Nicky, as I assume you are human and not Cher Lloyd?
