Certainly Kylie Minogue herself >has explicitly stated otherwise. Well, I hardly expect them to go around bragging about it. New Dweebs On The Block claim that they're doing music they love, coming from the heart, honest musicians, blah blah blah. Bull cookies. I respect bands who are crap and admit that they're doing it for the money. Sigue Sigue Sputnik spring to mind. They took the piss out of it. Sanctimonious yabbos hypocritically claiming "art" while all the while keeping their eyes on the Bottom Line make me ill. > >Let me leave you with the lyrical brilliance of Public Enemy: > > Public Enemy are extremely boring. This remark is so ludicrous as to hardly warrant further comment. +---------------------- Is there any ESCAPE from NOISE? ---------------------+ | | |\ | jsd@gaffa.mit.edu | ZIK ZAK - We make everything you need, | | \|on |/rukman | jsd@umass.bitnet | and you need everything we make. | +----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
