Word of the year...."IINCREDIBLE"....everyone seems to use this word on every TV programme every five minutes....it's incredible........

.......... ABBA are reforming to do a concert with themselves computerised.....they have just brought out a single which is absolutely brilliant....the production is a masterpiece and at last some decent music to listen too....HOWEVER.... some music critic called Neil McCormick who "takes no prisoners" has given it a 2 star rating and called it a flop......this obviously being the only way he can get himself noticed and keep his job
at the Daily Telegraph...what a berk....I doubt if he could play a tambourine ....and this is the problem....when the record sells millions which it will I hope he is informed as to where he can stick his opinion.

I always tell young up and coming hopefuls that to get on in showbiz you have to really go for it and if I can do it anyone can...an example was in 1977 when I wrote a song which I thought could do O.K. on the Opportunity Knocks Song Contest....the problem was you had to record a demo and send it off with top line manuscript and chords which was a problem as I couldn't read or write music.......so giving up is never an option.....it's all about BELIEF.

There was an interesting article on Radio 2 with Jeremy Vine where restaurants
were complaining that people who put bad reviews about them on line was affecting their business as they were unable to respond........which would put other morons off trying to get in on the act.

This week's bad song which I have never recovered from....."Rosetta" by Alan Price and Georgie Fame with the constant repeating of the hook "Rosetta are you better are you well well well"......definitely puts it in my personal musical dustbin....I saw them at a club in Liverpool back in the day....they were worse than this record....again just my opinion
