No one does religious fervour like Capleton. He's just the best. I love him.

Do you still get religious dancehall in JA or is it all slack, scary androgynous aliens on autotune?

 

[Corpsey]

Continuing this impromptu Now that's what i call dancehall vol. 425

Do you mean that representing love in art is impossible or love is impossible?

 

[craner]

OK, I see, love is impossible. As demonstrated by the rigorous focus group of you and Barty.

 

[craner]

Beyond Soul.

exactly. most turkish folk released these days when it tries to symphonise or modernise becomes like aural wall paper to uphold a nominal notion of conservatism. gone are the days of listening to the angelic voice in a smokey back street cafe wondering how to make hope out of turmoil. it's...

what I was saying, and extrapolating from in an inspired flight of fancy, is that the love song is a thing of the pasty you grumpy old sausage
