Oh shit, we need Tom's view on the 'Mats stat.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Just don't listen to their version of Black Diamond, it is appalling.

You failed the taste test, but Heston passed the paternity test.

It's not awful but it's nowhere near as good as it thinks it is. Pretty much how I feel about The Verve.
I'm not that keen on the Verve outside of this song.

Interesting and ulitimately depressing video. "Where there's a hit, there's writ" never sounded more apt.
