There’s a lot to clear up here from Brian’s trail…

I would be doing the patrons of this establishment a disservice if I didn’t point out that Pearl Carr and Teddy Johnson, unlike Monty Python’s claim, did not win the 1959 Eurovision. Sing Little Birdy, Sing was disgracefully relegated to second place behind The Netherlands, who didn’t even have the decency to sing in English. It’s worth noting the whole contest took just over one hour, present day organisers should take note of this.

I agree that our girls are trying too hard. |The song appears to be a mash up of about five different songs, all collapsed into 3 minutes. The genre could therefore be classified as prog-pop. All I have said is that it will not finish last but Twiggy as yet is keeping her cards close to her furry chest.

Most bizarre sight I saw, along the Brechin thread, was a huge bloke well over six foot tall wearing nothing but flip flops and  tiny posing pouch type briefs pushing a small supermarket trolley with a tiny dog in it along a canal tow-path in blazing heat on a Sunday afternoon. So many questions…

As for @abcrazy, who can blame her? As for casting a clout, not only did it not travel, it probably means sometime horrendously insulting in Texas.

Everything Everything will continue to mean Nothing Nothing to me but as far as Magazine are concerned I am in full agreement. Their first album is darkly disturbing genius.
