Paul Mccartney, One Of The Best Songwriters

People Say I Seem Very Negative About New Music - Well, If Somebody Asks Me What I Think Of Keane, I'll Tell 'em. I Don't Like 'em. I'll Obviously Take It A Step Too Far And Grossly Insult The Keyboard Player's Mam Or Summat, But I'm Afraid That's Just Me.

Twenty Years From Now, Will We Listen To Lady Gaga? No. She Might Think She Is Making A Stand For The Freaks And The Weirdos. But They're Not Going To Have Any Decent Music To Play, Are They?

Do You Ever Look At The Sky And Think, I'm Glad I'm Alive? After I Heard System Of A Down, I Thought, I'm Actually Alive To Hear The Shittiest Band Of All Time.

I Remember The 70s Constantly Being Winter In Manchester And The Irish Community In Manchester Closing Ranks Because Of The Ira Bombings In Birmingham And Manchester, And You Know The Bin-workers' Strike, All Wrapped Up In It...
