Re: cd's... Talk Talk

I think cringe-inducing was the wrong word as well. Shit could be the one
your looking for. I love Talk Talk but other than "Life's What You Make It"
"The Colour of Spring" is a bag o' wank. And it's the same with "It's my
Life". I don't see why people should start liking something because it's
electronic or because it played a part in electronic music history. That's
just fuckin' stupid. If you like something, like it because you think it's
good, not because you think you should. Right, rant over. I'm off up to the
heath to perv at some man-tan coated mutton dressed as spam.
