This week's post ...

Cheap Cuts
Misery Guts
new single
Cheap Cuts do "nostalgic 60s soul with short kitchen sink sagas set in amodern broken bankrupt Britain....". And then some, a very trendy accoustic West London Folk Scene approach makes this sit nicely alongside Mumford & Sons, Adele, Train.. Some very catchy moments, vocal hooks on lead track 'Automatically Wrong', and the three accompanying tunes 'You & I', 'Never Too Young' and 'Misery Guts'.

Katy Perry
Last Friday Night
new single
The best track on her album soon to be a single... and with a great remix package this should give Mrs Brand a fourth straight US Number One and another UK top five hit. Great naughty pop song!

The Travelling Band
Fairweather Friends
from new album 30 May 2011
Hotly tipped by BBC 6Music's Marc Riley The Travelling Band's 'Fairweather Friends' taster for new album 'Screaming Is Something' is a lush accoustic based chune which should easily pick up airplay on 6Music and Radio 2. The Travelling Band play at Cardiff's Ten Feet Tall on 7 June 2011.Good band, Nice tune.

Wild Hope
Money & Gold
new single 6 June 2011
A fine record, Cambridge based Wild Hope have a 'hook laden slice of indie goodness'... a 'one night stand between The Manics & The Pixies'... Produced by Gavin Monaghan of Editors & Kings Of Leon heritage this is a top tune and deserves success.

This week's Goss ...

UK Top 40 Sun 24 Apr 11
LMFAO... aka Laughing My F**king Arse Off stay No.1... Tracy Chapman's 'Fast Car' races to 4 after the song appeared on Britain's Got Talent...

And talking of Britain's Got Talent.... where? Not in the Top 40... and there's no sign of things improving for Brits any time soon...

Just like our manufacturing industry has been crippled and virtually shut down to allow cheap foreign imports and fakes so has our music scene...

This week the UK supplies only one of the UK's Top Ten... Just three of the Top Twenty and an abysmal eleven of the Top 40 (& that includes two collaborations with American artists). See the UK Top 40 with UK Artistes highlighted in pink below.

It's worth noting this de-Brit-ing of the UK's young music fans became most noticeable about five or six years back... academics argue over whether the young are no longer interested or whether their music is rubbish. However the real reason is coverage. Prominent coverage has been denied the traditional to support the foreign... the more one researches the decline of Brit-pop, there are key landmarks are the transplanting of Radio OneXtra culture onto Radio One. It must then follow that our music industry and culture was sacrificed for the multi-cultural and one consequence of Labour's practicing of eugenics on us is the diminishing UK traditional indie rock music industry which has virtually become an underclass.

Americans account for 24 of the UK Top 40 plus another two collaborations with UK artistes... has it been a price worth paying? Subservience..... I doubt it.

Meanwhile Rihanna gets her 10th American number one with 'S&M' while Brit-school gal Adele climbs to 6 in the USA with 'Rolling In The Deep' just as she returns top the top of the UK's Albums for a twelfth week with '21'. The Foo Fighters have America's new number one album with 'Wasting Light'.

10 new – 9 up, 24 down, 2 non-movers Top Ten… 9 USA… 1 UK…

Wedding Woe
Posted Wednesday 27th April 2011 - Source Daily Telegraph

So Brown & Blair are not wanted at the Royal Wedding... just the beginning we hope of the readjustment after the incredible deceipt they practiced on all of us when they ruled. Now let's revoke Blair's removal of the death penalty for Treason. Let's see the full extenet of this evil disaster duo's designs against Britain fully revealed and then let's see them charged with High Treason and War Crimes.

Geldof's Teachers
Posted Tuesday 26 April 2011 - Source Teachers.TV
Bob's success since Liveaid - Ethiopia 1984 - population 33 million, Ethiopia 2011 - 77 million
The new Coalition Government don't like Sir Bob Geldof so much...
This week marks the end of Geldof's lucrative £10.7 million per annum contract with the Government to provide Teachers with their own TV.
The man owns 'Ten Alps PLC Multi Media Factual Producer', the man who gave us the dubious landmark TV feature 'In Bed With Paula' on Channel 4's Big Breakfast... then in some weird strange irony Bob it's creator could only watch as it's host, his wife Paula Yates life spiralled out of control after she began romancing one of her bed guests Michael Hutchence.
If only Bob had resisted nepotism.

According to wiki on the morning of Michael Hutchence death Paula Yates
"contended that Geldof had repeatedly said, "Don't forget, I am above the law" referring to his influence since Live Aid."
Well could he be above the law... Remember Live 8 when Sir Bob... (Sir?) called on millions to gather outside the G8 summit in Scotland and lobby the worlds 8 most important leaders, without a care for health and safety... it's gotta be a maybe he is above the law, hasn't it...
Sir Bob was always going to be something special, educated in Dublin's exclusive Blackrock College - the provider of many of the Irish Republic's luminaries
including Éamon de Valera, six times Taoiseach and the 3rd President of Ireland.
Now global social justice campaigner Bob is offering students at Salford University a chance to make videos for the eleven songs on his new album... it's not a competition as such... Bob'll use it if he likes, but it'll be good for both parties.
Nice one Bob.
Sir Bob revealed his personal lifelong manifesto on his debut hit with The Boomtown Rats... 'Looking After No.1'.

iPhone tracks users' movements
Apple iPhones and 3G iPads are secretly recording and storing details of all their owners' movements, researchers claim.
Location data is kept in a hidden, unencrypted file according to security experts Alasdair Allan and Pete Warden.
With the right software, it can be used to map exactly where a person has been.
Apple has yet to comment on the revelation, however there in no suggestion that it has been uploading or using the information.
The findings, first reported by the Guardian newspaper, will come as a surprise to most iPhone users, as their devices do not give any visual indication that such data is being recorded.
However, although the practice is not explicitly flagged-up, it appears to be covered in the company's terms of use.
"We may collect information such as occupation, language, zip code, area code, unique device identifier, location, and the time zone where an Apple product is used so that we can better understand customer behaviour and improve our products, services, and advertising"
Clearly intentional
Writing on the technology website O'Reilly Radar, Mr Allan and Mr Warden said they did not know why iPhones and iPads were collecting location information but it was "clearly intentional".
The men claim that the facility to record users' positions was added with the iOS4 software update, released in June 2010.
The data is also transferred to the owner's computer and stored in a file there each time the two devices are connected to carry-out a backup or synchronisation.
Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at security firm Sophos, told BBC News that it was unlikely Apple planned to use the information for commercial purposes.
"I think there are some legitimate privacy concerns and people will probably look for a way of obscuring that data," he said.
"But it is an object lesson about reading the terms and conditions," he added.
