Christmas Time - The Darkness

Scissor Sisters - Land of a Thousand Words. (CD single)

It's nice :)

Hey, isn't there a similarity between Scissor Sisters and Sparks? A little bit, I think.

FFS.

Now THAT is just a bit rude, Leanne!
Surely, phrases like that are best expressed sotto voce?Really?

What a shame some people find my innocent reference to "Fine For Some" to be rude. The ...

FFS. Have we not already been through this? It's ONE producer who made the decision. YES, he should have done his homework, I have never denied that, but it is one producer out of thousands. It was HI ...

it is still "true" in that "Dick Around was banned from a single airing by a representative of the BBC". It really did happen, and there is no disputing that. No it wasn't. One person chose not to pla ...

I replied to the post at the top of this thread. That is ALL I need to reply to. My points were valid, accurate and pertaining to that post. No one has said that my points were innaccurate, so what is ...

Well, when I reply to a post on a thread, it is THAT post I am replying to, not some other posts on another thread. If we all had to trawl through every post, to see if someone had said something else ...

I did research it, and I read the comments about Brits being 'squares'. I made the same points as you about the producer on LDN Breakfast. However, the decision he made reflects on HIM, and HIM alone. ...

That quote was from another thread, and so he couldn't have been replying to it on this thread. His post on THIS thread is the one I was dealing with.

Hi Alex. Thanks for your reply. I do accept you didn't mean any offence.

Chris Moyles? I don't even listen to Chris Moyles. And I certainly DON'T post on his webpage. Nor have I ever visited it. Nor have I even mentioned Chris Moyles in this forum, or any other. Nor did I ...

Remind me...in which year did Sparks buy the BBC, and in which year did Leanne become it's legal guardian?Do you have a problem with me expressing my opinion? Or are you just rude to everyone?

So we are not disagreeing about much.

Queen are tough to beat. I also think U2 are one of the best performance bands. I'm a huge Beatles fan. Pink Floyd are up there too. Take That are great, and have just reformed.

Sparks are new to m ...

Sparksswede.

Who is this "They", you refer to. BBC LDN is a very small part of the BBC. It is a radio station for London only. I have already said that the individual producer who made this decisio ...

Douglas,

I understand what happened, and I have said elsewhere that the producer may, or may not, have been wrong. I described it as a lack of prep on his part. But just because he got it wrong, do ...

Hi Deano.

Well, you said the words were 'sometimes' edited out, and this is in line with what I was saying above. The song will be played with the audience in mind. Sometimes, it's suitable, other ...

Some song lyrics might not be considered suitable for certain audiences. In the UK, "Dick Around" is not used to describe messing around, as it might be in the USA. The term is more readily interprete ...

Girlfriend, I hope you read a few more posts on this topic before you make such rash statements.I'm making a rash statement? What part of my statement is rash? If you're looking for rash statements, y ...

RON AND RUSSELL MAEL HAVE REACTED ANGRILY TO SPARKS' NEW SINGLE DICK AROUND BEING BANNED BY BBCThe BBC has NOT banned Dick Around. What is all this rubbish being posted here? No one in the BBC is even ...
