Good old Clive signs BC Jean... 16 Years, 5 Months ago  
My record of 2008 was If I Were A Boy which she wrote - so Clive hasn't lost his skills.

Check out her original...

It's a dreadful song, JK - appalling lyrics and nowhere near as melodically catchy as the song it rips off. I can't think of many songs that work where the chorus melody is the same as the verse - only a few can pull it off, such as Prince with "The Most Beautiful Girl In The World".

I agree with you on the melodic rule SW but this one really does work and prove the exception and, for me, the lyric is sensational.

Horses for courses!

do they ever do their own research these days?

The quality of the tabloid music press is appalling at present. They either nick properly unearthered stories from places like this, rewrite blogs which turn out to be invented/fanciful, or spin a load of nonsense from unnamed sources when anyone with an ounce of common sense who stands back for just a minute would realise it has to be bollocks.

Neil McCormick is very lucky that he's been up Bono's arse since they were at school together.

Didn't his debut single sell 10 copies?

I always felt Adam the drummer to be far more worthy of buggery.

Larry is the drummer.

Apologies - and to be honest I never really took any serious interest in the physical attributes of individual U2 members! But yes, it was Larry, not Adam, who seemed rather attractive in the early days!
