I reckon, into two distinct groups. It's funny that you joke that you're covering news stories that have been done to death elsewhere. As an American, the Steve Show and this blog are like "Up-to-the-Minute Late-Breaking Englo-News" to me. When I saw the link that "Killing in the Name" was #1, I briefly panicked that maybe I had slipped into a wormhole and traveled back in time to 1993. When I use either of your arguments with family and friends over the next few weeks, I want you to know that I'll be appropriating your memories of being in Reading in 1993 as well. Cheers.

And at Christmas time too! It's like the little Baby Jesus, who famously brought all the religions together, died for nothing. Shame on you, Zed de la Ferrero Rocher. So, as a result, I agree with Steven Cowell of the Y Factory. All winners of that show now have an inexorable right to the Christmas number one, if only to prevent uncensored filth like that polluting our Wintervals. The End. (Subs - I've not checked this for facts or spelling, can you do so before it gets published? Ta) I did like the Machines Make Me Angry tune but then they went on Radio Five Live and did that swearing thing.
