Is this going to happen every year from now on?

RADIO 1'S SEKRIT MASTERPLAN TO RUIN XMO EVERY YEAR

1. Approach festive season.

2. Find godawful acoustic dirge.

3. Promote g.a.d. as tiny alternative indie underdog to juggernaut of Xmas tat.

4. Play tiny alternative indie underdog fvcking incessantly. Play juggernaut of Xmas tat 0 times.

5. Watch as indie underdog gets to No.1

6. HURRAH FOR REAL MUSIC

This year the injustice seems less than in the horrible winter of Gary Jules because - even though Nizlopi is actually MUCH WORSE than "Mad World" was - there's not any actually good records it's keeping off the top (The Frog was never going to beat Westlife, eheu). Even so this smarts.

Two final points. First off, no five year old knows who Bruce Lee is. Second off, every five year old wd prefer "Jingle Bells (Nim Nim)" to "The JCB Song".

I still haven't heard the JCB song, a state of affairs I would like to continue for as long as possible.

I was about to say that Girls Aloud are releasing the best Chemistry single yet for Xmas but you don't like 'See The Day' do you :(

(Was there ever a Euroboshing cover of 'Mad World'?)

YES! Well a happy hardcore cover, by New Romantix, unfortunately I only have a 1m 40s snippet of it from some mix CD or other, it is AWESOME though, they pretty much dispense with most of the verses. I'd love to get the full version. The TFF original is good too of course.

My wife is also a JCB holdout and I'm trying to protect her from it.

I like "See The Day" approximately 100000000x more than the JCB Song.
