Don't concern yourself with the controversy, Clare. Just remember, ridicule is nothing to be scared of.

There are'nt any for me. in fact, contrary so 'n' so that i am, im waiting for R.E.M. to call it a day, as, lets face it, theyre getting a bit "painting by numbers" now, and theyve hinted heavily at some kind of big ol' boxed set when they split.

Re: 10 artists you couldn't bear to lose...

Real hard to stick to 10 only, but here is my best guess from different genres:


Jacques Brel
Miles Davis
Debussy
Massive Attack
Radiohead
Boards of Canada
Edith Piaf
dEus
Norah Jones
Hiromi Uehara


Frankly, the list would be different tomorrow...


Cheers,
Bernard

Genesis
Johnny Cash

Aimee Mann
David Bowie
Elton John
