Anyone who doesn't enjoy Cerys Matthews's unique voice, unique sex appeal, unique good looks and unique character has no right to complain about the bland automatons that make up the large percentage of pop in the UK today.

Cerys Matthews is a great example of why the British pop scene is held in the highest respect worldwide.

None should complain about that.

 

[ddraig]

and she can lpay geeetar

<sigh>

 

[kakuma]

i think her and her band are utter fucking shite

i saw them live just before they got really big, she was pissed as fuck and talking utter shite between songs for about 5 minutes then lisping through the songs. she sounded like she had some disability rather than sexy or husky to me

then when they did have a couple of nmber ones with the polished version it was some of the most turgid shite i have ever heard, only a fool would say they were anything but a slightly below average rock band, their USP being some drunken welsh bint

edit: i didn't know she had done a folk comeback, but i'm confident that it's crap

I hope you're talking musically not as people.

 

[ATOMIC SUPLEX]

Most of my favourite singers weren't trained and they're probably 'technically' none too accomplished either.

So it's a good job that great pop music isn't qualified or judged by technical excellence, but by more important criteria such as passion, soul, heartache, commitment and all the other things that training can't always reproduce.

Here here. It's not like you would complain that calvin from beat happening or Ian Crutis were shit singers.

If all music was about technical ability where the hell would we be? We would be in shit land thats where.

i've never met them, don't know anything about them except that they make rubbish music and they have probly got a few quid

Gosh. A rock singer. Drunk?!

Whatever next?!!!

i don't mind her being drunk, it was more the fact that she was totally shite that ruined the gig for me

 

[editor]

i don't mind her being drunk...

Strange that you seemed keen to highlight that fact, then ("drunken welsh bint", "pissed as fuck").

 

[kakuma]

i also said she was shite about 10 times

i could call ella fitzgerald a daft yankee scaghead but it doesn't affect my view of her music

Erm, it's OPINION, Stanley. In my OPINION, she's rubbish. But according to you that means I have no right to complain about things? Shit logic.

So anyone who dares disagrees with you is a fool, eh?

I'm so jealous. I wish I'd given her one.

Yes. Okay. Just for you (and the rest of the world), in future I will add the suffix IMO to all my posts. FFS. Sorry - I mean FFS IMO. OK?

Actually no, in this case I'll stand by my gun. If you don't like Cerys I will shoot you. You have no right to live never mind speak your mind. (IMO).



Ninjaboy's

she was pissed as fuck and talking utter shite between songs for about 5 minutes

Just endorses the coolness.

nah man, it was more like watching someones pissed autie

these cool arrogant rockstars who fuck up half their shows cos they are so rocknroll are cool cos they can be amazing when they are on form. her 'moments of genius' are pretty cack as well

 

[friedaweed]

Watched her at Cambs folk fest the other week. Have to say she was utterly shite. Out of tune and dull.
Highlight was when the big lights hit her and she realised she'd no bra and a very see-through top. Doh

Sad

But, she still has good tits?

 

[longdog]

I thought you were a vegetarian

Jelly baby eating anarchists?

 

[pk]

Staple diet of Editors and Doctors all over the universe.

 

[editor]

I thought you were a vegetarian

It wasn't my packet, but my mate was too shy to offer her one.

You can get veggie jelly babies now anyway.

Barretts jelly babies are veggie, for example, but I didn't undertake an analysis of the packet in question.

i never liked catatonia much, but i thought cockahoop was excellent.

 

[BadlyDrawnGirl]

I missed out on seeing Catatonia live because of...fucking Toploader.

It was a Campaign For The Living Wage concert in Manchester, and the aforementioned two bands were headlining. However, Toploader were on first, rendering me with a thumping migraine and in turn necessitating my faint-headed exit from the MEN arena assisted by St. John's Ambulance staff. Catatonia split up about two months later.

I was never their most meticulous fan, although I did like them. And I'm sure that Toploader would have made them look like James Brown at the Apollo. Still, Idlewild were decent.
