Floz & The Machine - there's an interesting one.A: She's not Kate Bush, however much she thinks she is.
B: They do do good tunes.
C: She fancies herself rotten - as a bird and as a muso - the whole 'staring up the lights lost in the music'/'tightly squeezed eyes, lost in the music' schtick is very, very considered, and thus pretentious and annoying. See also R&B singers doing that stupid 'delicate hand' thing to indicate how soul they are.

I feel a little about F&TM like I did about Oasis when they were about:Great tunes, pricks doing them = Dammit stop being such pricks!

But they weren't great tunes.Every cover version of Wonderwall is also pap. It's a song inspired by a film about spying on your naked neighbours through a hole in the wall, which has for some reason been reinterpreted as an anthem to inspire mid-northerners with a sense of solidarity and kinship, by comparing one another to mystical bits of masonry. This is STUPID.

Really?I just assumed it got played because Jo Whiley found out she still gets paid by the hour, even when she's not talking.
