[Finch Platte]

So, you know that Moody Blues song where he sings, "I'm just a singer in a rock & roll band"?



What band was he singing about?

[Hyfi]

Just a hunch, The Moody Blues

Just a hunch, The Moody Blues

But they're not rock & roll.

Don't you get it? Don't you see??

[Hyfi]

But they're not rock & roll.

Don't you get it? Don't you see??

Well what about that other stupid song, Clouds in your coffee?

"Your so vain, you probably think this song is a bout you"

Well isn't it?

What band was he singing about?

If you know the lyrics, he was basically saying that he didn't have any solutions to the problems of the world because he was 'just a singer in a rock & roll band'.

"How can we understand
Riots by the people for the people
Who are only destroying themselves
And when you see a frightened
Person who is frightened by the
People who are scorching this earth.

Music is the traveller crossing our world
Meeting so many people bridging the seas
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band.
We're just the singers in a rock and roll band.
I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band..."

That wasn't so hard Finchy.

That wasn't so hard Finchy.

My point, and the point that everyone seems to be missing, is that the Moody Blues aren't rock & roll.

Just killin' time on a Friday & tryin' to liven this place up.

I guess you enjoy being a jack-arse ?

Your ears and mind have been poisoned by heavy metal where

NObody knows what they are singing about, grunge garbage,

Gaga drivel, and bad rap !

Open your ears and your mind.

lighten up Francis

Finchy's just lobbing some snowballs at us proggers

[Hyfi]

well I am not Francis and how about if I would like to lob a snowball at "Finchy", myself ?

if his taste is in his arse, it is.

You would be surprised at the depth and verity of music that comes from Finch.

October Skies is a spammer and one of over 45 names assigned to one IP address. I'm looking into having the IP address banned.

It's nice to see people coming to Finchy's defence though.

Pink Floyd, Sid Barret of course...

[Finch Platte]

Hey, this is turning out better than I expected!

Any other spammers out there, or is OctoberSkies the last one?

You need to fix your signature.

To be accurate it should read: "Capitalism = Moral but illegal"

Read up on what laissez-faire means.

May I suggest Andrew Berstein's The Capitalist Manifesto.
