Nirvana never gets old, although this cover version's pretty good.

You're thinking of fucking Pearl Jam. ONE good song, the rest is shite.

What options do you get if you poured the menu lines think in the top left corner?

With android you can choose 'unread' or 'timeline'. Is it not the same then!

My godmother is friends with guy called Paul, a presenter from Tikkabilla, a fantastically annoying and thoroughly shit early morning show on Cbeebies. He's the tall skinny black fella who sings a lot. He's just had a big old rant on Facebook about how racist and factually incorrect 'Do they know it's Christmas?' is.

Just a thought about this TERRIBLE Christmas song - When dozens of famous musicians gathered to record a holiday single to raise money for the Ethiopian famine in 1984, I believe their hearts were in the right place, but the result is a super offensive song.

Rather than referencing the Ethiopians, they refer to them generally as Africans (because why challenge the western misconception that Africa is a single country?) and ask, “Do they know it’s Christmas time at all?” Well, considering that the majority of Africans aren’t Christians, the better question might be whether they even care. And to then lament that “there won’t be snow in Africa this Christmas time” is equally as absurd because the climate doesn’t generally lend itself to snow; in fact, the half of the continent below the equator is in the midst of its summer in December.

I understand motivating people to be charitable, but is it really necessary to portray Africa as an utter hellhole to accomplish that? According to the lyrics, Africa is “a world of dread and fear, where the only water flowing is a bitter sting of tears. And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom.” The worst line might be Bono’s solo, “Well, tonight thank God it’s them instead of you!” Uh, how about NOT thanking God that other people are starving? That seems like an awful thing to be thankful for, but what do I know, I’m not a Nobel Peace Prize nominee like Bono.

What was the American song called? Was it 'we are the world'?

It's the middle of August, and he's picking holes in a 30 year old Christmas number one. I agree the song is bollocks, but he's missed the boat somewhat. I never thought I'd defend anything to do with Bonio, but I do not agree at all with the final paragraph, he's deliberately misplacing the intent behind that line. Bonio is still a cunt though.
