I changed as I still haven't forgave no doubt for that horrific change to ghetto girl style they went to. Not that I really liked them, but it was a good song, and in different to ac I think it's a song that Gwen Stefani actually shows a little character to her repertoire.

I though being a few former brizzler too, GG had gone for portishead.

It sounds weird, but that record on the headphones walking round on a cold, rainy night in Bristol....it could only be written there. A music that sums up a place so well.

Would make a good round, songs about places (though it'd have to be more literally than you mean).

Joker please!

You've got to ask yourself though, after all of the scandal, will people still vote for Tie Me Kangaroo Down Sport - even if you somehow do?

The last theme was difficult, I thought, but this one is waaaaay harder.

Currently coming bottom in the whole world means I have to go tactical rather than emotional - and I have little idea of which Aus songs/bands have had success in Britain over the years (besides Rolf, of course, and he has been British for quite some years now...)

of course, even more so now that we know he is a pervert, but I have always (and I think the country has as well) considered Rolf to be: a) a bit of a joke; and b) only known because he was popular in Britain

Your lot made him a star, not ours.

In Aus?

I am sure that he was. I can remember seeing some of his shows as a young kid. That would have been very late 60's/70's. Don't know when he moved to Britain.

No in the UK. Some guy who appeared and used Aussie slag terms that made him stand out.
