What are you listening to right now?

Well they are now down to 5. Paul died and Hannah has now quit. But no. To be fair, I think the rest have to carry on for the money.

On the subject of covers

Oh he is amazing live! He has sold out the O2 later this year twice over. Tickets are like gold dust. But country music is shit apparently:

P.S I know every word of that song off by heart

Do you like Whiskey Myers. Been listening too them a fair bit recently.

Yes! Love them. I saw them live in Kentucky I think. One state. It wasn’t Tennessee, I know that much.

Cover versions are precarious business. For every corker like Janis Joplin plaintively screaming and amplifying the raw soul of a classic track there’s a horrorshow like Paul Young ill-advised attempt to make Joy Division’s Love Will Tear Us Apart more palatable to grannies.

Here’s the former, luckily.
