not sure how this happened.......

ok, here's an oddity.


mindful of the fact that Ian Brown, the Manic Street Preachers and the Happy Mondays have all released new stuff in 2007, i find myself considering that the best song of the year so far is the product of none of them. instead, i find myself highly enamoured and impressed with



1973 by James Blunt. i only listened to the song out of the somewhat obvious curiosity - it is named after the year i was born, after all. it appears to have little or no relevance to when you were born, but i was shocked and ashamed to discover that it is a fantastic tune.

strange that i cannot champion any song from my three favourites who have released something this year in the same way (although in fairness i have not had the chance to properly play Shaun & Bez's offering) - either they haven't released anything that outstanding, or i am just getting old and prefer a different kind of tune.

if for some reason you have not heard Mr Blunt's latest offering, i guess the advice is to then go and check it out!!

be excellent to each other!!!!!!!!!!!!
