I was browsing only today in the long player section of Woolworths when I heard the terrible news of The Jam's split on the store's wireless. Apparently, the lead singer is going to form a new band that will be more pop than punk.

Add some piano and I bet he'd have a few hits. Well, in Europe anyway.

Great idea. They can do a gay video where they go punting in Cambridge with a bloke that looks like a Frenchie playing the bongos appearing every so often and the lead singer topless. It will be a sure fire hit and will go down a treat with the ladies and that George Michael Wham bloke and his kind.

I think between the two of us, we could re-ignite the Bunnymen's career.

Well, I like the cd a lot. I haven't really figured out the lyrics - I like the music and melodies.

It is a very good album. The Glorious Land particularly. Someone made their own video for that on youpubes.
