Big Weller fan then eh? ;)

I've never seen the appeal myself. But then, I've spent at least 3 posts going on about the wonders of Duran Duran....ignore me! :lol:

Have to admit to being a devoted "Duranie" in my younger years. I really thought that I would never get over John Taylor getting married, and then having to watch him in "The Reflex" video looking soooo gorgeous was just too much. I went to a Duran Duran concert a few years ago at Wembley with two of my girlfriends, and I have to say that they were bloody good. We were adjacent to Yasmin Le Bon, who despite kids and being married to Simon, looks so fantastic it would make any girl cry. She really was stunning and NO MAKE UP !!! Simon is very very lucky....

Other Brit music I like : Paul Weller, The Jam, The Police, Madness, Bananarama (they were way cooler than the Spice Girls), Stereophonics, Hard-Fi, The Cult, The Specials, Kaiser Chiefs, Enya (technically Irish but on the right side of the pond), Faithless, and Dido

Music I hate: Captain Sensible, any thrash or death metal, S Club 7 including those annoying little S Club Junior freaks, Five, Gareth Gates, ...... it really would be a very long list...

Do you remember that Halifax ad where they were singing that Liberty X song talking about how we'd find their interest rates 'sex-yyyyyyyyyyyyy'? I nearly peed myself laughing the first time I saw that! :lol::lol:

Oh I forgot to add: I hate Simply Red too.
How can you not like Wet Wet Wet? Lol.

Mainly due to their excruciating cover of "Love is all around" which was at number 1 for about 7 years. That and Marty whatisname was another one of those smug expressioned singers like Mick Hucknal that needed punching.

Yes, Marti Pellow always had a big cheesy grin on his face, I thought it was kinda cute. I just remembered The Proclaimers too, another annoying couple of weirdos. But, they are Scottish, so I suppose that is something in their favour :thumbs:
