Oh fuck off AI.

It offered me this gloop after a recent post Manics made about Mani.

For years the other half thought it was “you know your problem, you’re kipping on air”.

She thought “kipping on air” was some sort of colloquialism.
This is a great genre of music, songs where the misheard lyrics are better than the real ones. Includes "are we human or are we denser?"
Teardrops by Womack & Womack on the radio - where my misheard lyric ‘she cries on every tomb’ is arguably better than the actual lyric

I spelled my name “Mani” at university cos it was a whole lot cooler.

Best bassist of his era by a mile - just watch him here.

Gonna write a computer game. Object is to get through a small Morrisons shop without anyone colliding into you or walking slowly in front of you.

Soundtrack will be Level 42 and Sophie B Hawkins.

I’d love to meet the poor sod who was tasked to cut out and replace all the swearing from pre-watershed broadcasts of Beverly Hills Cop.

I absolutely love Where Love Lives by Alison Limerick it all its incarnations and I pray that will come through this terrible moment in its life.

Why does nobody ever talk about the Great Motown Robbery of 1983?

Think of the worst place imaginable. Yes, it’s ….

RIP Dave Ball. What a loss.

As exceptional as one half of the Grid as he was an absolute pioneer in Soft Cell.

Today marks the 7th anniversary since the other half thought Ronan Keating was someone else.

Namely: Bitter Sweet Symphony, Laid, Common People, White Man in Hammersmith Palais and There Is A Light That Never Goes Out.

Reads like a sixth former showing off how alternative he is. Ian McNabb is 64.
