The second half of round 2!

I think for round 3 rather than trot through more one-on-one matches there might well be some kind of second group stage. We will see on Thursday!


[Poll #926319]


And now over to Lex for the spluttering with horror viewpoint.

Oh yeah and there is the OTHER fight which I shall not dignify with even calling a fight. If there is an true poptimism in any of you Missy will win by like 50-0. As I can sadly see this is not the case.

And I listened to 'Ghost Town' AGAIN and it passed me by without any impact of note AGAIN.

But Ghost Town >>> Billie Jean. I mean, it's about real stuff instead of Annie, I'm not your daddy. And it's the SPECIALS, who are infinitely cooler. Two Tone Specials >>> It don't matter if you're black or white.

The Billie Jean stuff really happened to MJ, didn't it?

We established last time that "Ghost Town" is about the rubbish midlands club scene, which is also real of course.

Celebrity baby whinging is not quite the same as late70s/early80s gritty industrialism. I didn't think it was just about clubs, but decline of manufacturing and no jobs and Thatcherism and stuff. Maybe I read too much into it. Plus, spooky music!

I prefer Ghost Town too FWIW. (And yes all that stuff is in it too - in general though I think that stuff doesn't suit the pop song medium half as well as worrying about a girl claiming to have fathered yr kid)

I'd certainly be worried if some girl was claiming to have fathered my kid....
