Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

Let the brainwashing commence.

I went to one of those once and got thrown out for asking questions.

Not wanting to be negative but none really. I guess Grip?

I'd heard that it was because it was a Hugh song but I'm sure it was because of the sexist thing... never mind, he can't sing it really and the fat arses thing destroys the 'charm' of the song in the same way he irritated me when in Tank he sang about blowing a man's cock off.

New album is great, raspy vocals, thudding bass and twinkling keyboards. The Fall are great. End of.

Any othe poor cnuts out there whose team is in the championship relegation battle? I'm a Leicester City fan and I've watched with horror how we've slipped to the bottom on equal pegging with Barnsla and 2 points up from Leeds. Milan Mandarac said he'd get us out of this league, just didn't think it'...

Ignoring such hilarity ;-) I have to say that at 35 I have come late to the boys of the damned. In a drunken state I purchased the aforementioned duluxe version of Damned Damned damned. I must report that it is a work of greatness and should be in every household under threat of hanging in a public ...
