Paul Weller is 53, btw

It's rare that I agree with anything that old nice person has to say, but on this one he's exactly right.

Now if he'd get rid of what is known in some circles as 'A lesbian granny haircut' he may get taken more seriously elsewhere.

Fell out with Weller shortly into the Style Council but he's spot on with that.

At what age is your opinion irrelevant?

Have we got to guess your age?

Ditto. Want to talk about self indulgent musicians? He's top of my list.

More relevant to other posters here tb included.

Toni. Freedom. Now that was a good turn

I beg to differ, it turned into a screaming contest as did several of the other duos - not really impressed with that format to be honest, it shows nothing of what each individual can do and only panders to a TV competitive format, each judge simply picked their pre-decided choice regardless of who screamed the loudest and the production team should have been honest enough to admit that.
