PS - PSmith - word is that CBBC are re-doing Dangermouse - Cripes!!!

I may try to catch Paulo Nutini (if I remember) to see if he sings Iron Sky from his current CD - yes, really. Believe it or not I heard it on Planet Rock last week and it was a real "who the heck is that moment". I was quite shocked that it was him as the vocals were strong and the song was nothing like I've heard from him before - not that I've listened to him a lot, of course. It was an extremely powerful song that really grabbed my attention. Yes, I couldn't believe it either, but you have to keep an open mind.

Phil
PS Mike, are wellies called willies in your part of the country? Very strange.

Nothing wrong with Paulo Phil, have a listen to Let me down easy from his new album. Saw him 3 times when he first arrived. Very talented guy.
