The promised follow-up questions (two of them in fact)

What have you been most right about? (The world may or may not have caught up to you on this)

Does being seen as "wrong" or "right" about music by other people bother you much?

Streets, Avalanches, Eve. But these are just early adopter stuff - I was right about Sound of the Underground being fantastic, but then so was everyone else.

Also these are in context - I was ahead of the curve compared to my local mates, but behind compared to ILXors (though I heard about the first two from the NME!)

I was also right about Portishead being sh1t.

Actually there's an obvious version of this question that I have only just seen: stuff I've loved for a long time. So EG the first time I heard Take On Me or Pump Up The Volume I thought these were life changing records, and I was completely right. Walk this way, not so much.
