Has anyone managed to hear the Babyshambles cover of The Clash's 'Janie Jones' ? 'Tis my fave track of the first Clash LP and it's odd to hear this new version.

It's being released to help the Joe Strummer Foundation for New Music thing and features everyone in the world with a guitar. (Carl Barat, the Rakes, Mystery Jets, The Holloways, We Are Scientists, The Paddingtons, Larrikin Love, Cazals, Noisettes, Good Books, Lady Fuzz, Kooks, Jack Penate, Laura Marling, Maccabees, Lisa Moorish, Test Icicles, Jamie T, Jeremy Warmsley, Guillemots, Bob Dylan, Elvis Presely & John Lennon)
Ok the last 3 ain't actually on it I think.

It's a sort of 2006 indiepop live-aid type shambles. It must have been havoc sorting it and recording it. It isn't the best thing in the world but could well go No.1

Hopefully no-body hears or buys the U2/Green Day version of The Skids 'Saints Are Coming'. it IS THE LOWEST POINT IN MUSIC HISTORY!!!
If Gareth Gates, Will Young & Fat Michelle McMannus had done it, it would have been no worse.
Thank you. Rant over.
 
Don't even get me started on ****ing Babyshambles!!! Given that they're a shit version of The Libertines. And that The Libertines were the most overrated band since Led Zeppelin !!! They just play the same 3 chords over and over, they're not tryinmg anything new and yet NME wants to have intercourse with them!!! If it wasn't for Pete Cock-erty taking drugs and getted arrested evrey other week no one would give a **** about them!!!

That's all IMO though

Rant over for me too

That isn't everyone with a guitar, taht's just shitty people that the NME masturbates over. Now if Dyaln was on it, that would be a different matter. Dylan is a GOD!!! If it was anyone with a guitar Tom Waits would be the first person to be asked

Robert Johnson does it for me. As it were.

No, but my postie gets my mail for me, that **** just made music I don't like. So therefore, my postie is higher in my estimation than him
