I'd wondered what it is you do with your time when you're not writing sketches about sexually-charged man-rabbits. Now I know.

Oops sorry mate. I did like "Downturn" a lot though. Exciting, my first song in NR. And an opener too new territory :) / :S

She was looking for a new opener anyway. SOB!

Still.... I held the top spot for 2 weeks. :)

Your FIRST song at NR???? After all the songs you've written?
What have they been thinking???
