Yep, the beat was created by the very talented axemen of "Chic". I can play the lead or the bass, damn shame I only have two arms.<br />

As was "Another One Bites the Dust."<br />

Chic is seriously underrated, but (surprisingly) several months back Jaz Coleman of Killing Joke (!?!) listed Chic's Greatest Hits as one of his 10 most important records. They remain the greatest disco band of all time. -

At the time, no one would hear of 3 black brothers playing Rock'n'Roll! So Bernard and Nile came up with the whole Disco thing. I didn't even know what Disco was. We pressed 'Dance, Dance, Dance' ourselves as we didn't have a record deal. We took it to a club, the DJ played it and people just freaked. From there, we signed to Atlantic."[/size][/font][/color]<br />

This is gloriously bad. From the [i]Lethal Weapon[/i] soundtrack:<br />

Those guys are from my part of the globe (probably the most famous band to ever come out of Niagara Falls - hence the "Honeymoon Suite"). They still play shows in Legion halls, Moose Lodges, and small taverns in strip malls around southern Ontario, playing the same circuit as Helix, Anvil, and the Killer Dwarfs. Oh, and yeah, they're pretty sure most people here know they suck. -
ah, the "Rap - Talent or Rubbish" debate is always fun.<br />

<br />
As evidence for the Talent side, i present a funky little song from New York's "Digable Planets" their shit is smooooth hip hop over jazzy rythms, and its super relaxing<br />

Morrissey has released his official statement on the Diamond Jubilee:<br />
<br />
<br />
[quote][i]The soul is tried all over again as the jackboot of dictatorship strangles England. This week, the Queen's Diamond Jubilee presents a new lesson in the force of tyranny, and is an expression of loathing and abhorrence of the British poor - and all done, quite naturally, at the public's expense! It is degrading to anyone of intelligence. While dictatorships throughout the Middle East are [/i][color=#000000]gently[/color][i] condemned by the British government, there is no examination of the extremism enforced by the British 'royals', who remain the most overpaid and most utterly useless people on the planet. Having done nothing to earn our respect, they demand everything by return. It is a cunning and extravagant form of benefit fraud.[/i][/quote]<br />

Love the song, love the video. -
That Smith's clip reminded me of this by Elvis Costello. Gotta love the passion in the lyrics of absolute vitriol dedicated to Maggie Thatcher.<br />

"Well I hope I don't die too soon<br />
I pray the Lord my soul to save<br />
Oh I'll be a good boy, I'm trying so hard to behave<br />
Because there's one thing I know, I'd like to live<br />
long enough to savour<br />
That's when they finally put you in the ground<br />
I'll stand on your grave and tramp the dirt down"<br />

While finding that video I came across this, which I hadn't seen before but found quite funny..<br />
