Heard it on Wogan's show yesterday; brilliant new single by THEA GILMORE who I had never heard of before - lyrics by the late Sandy Denny of Fairport Convention...

I love this; it's super. Help break it...

Its lovely.
She is already well established with about ten albums and has collaborated with Joan Baez.
I'm going to see her at the Philharmonic in Liverpool next month.

That single is a year old. Great track though.

Her new single is Love Came Looking At Me

Nice but not a hit whereas London is a clear smash yet it obviously wasn't turned into one; which label is she on?

Finger on the pulse as always, JK...

That's the problem; there is no pulse.

Nice but not a hit to me!
JK to be honest hits are part of the old model
And seeing that one man's hits gives another the shits
It is time for the pursuit thereof to stop. Just make music
You LOVE and let the public decide. job done!

Bollocks J&B - a major part of the creative process is turning the hit into a hit; otherwise very few people hear it and you don't give pleasure to millions.

Whether or not you like Gangnam Style - it's a hit.

Poor old Vincent Van Gogh had to wait until long after he was dead for millions to appreciate the genius of his paintings.

The best art is both great and popular.

Charles Dickens, William Shakespeare, MichelAngelo: from almost Day One everyone adored them all, and quite right too.

Your attitude J&B is precisely what's wrong with the music industry today; nobody bothers anymore. Just because it's difficult is no reason to give up.
