Quote: Leevil @ March 7 2011, 6:05 PM GMTJames Cotter. Yes, I know he's an ingenuously cutting edge performer with an acting range as wide as your mommas legs. But I just don't get why he is so popular and fawned over. Being a great performer with dashing looks is one thing but what else is there?
He is a comedy God and we should be bloody well grateful that He deigns to occasionally grace us with His presence. While most of us are struggling to attain mediocrity, Cotter has already reached the stars and can only go higher.

Quite. Pointless to go out for an overpriced drinking session at places with deafening music and surly bouncers, unless seeking sex.

Indeed. Are you familiar with the band Chumbawamba? One of their more recent albums has the rather lengthy title of: The Boy Bands Have Won, and All the Copyists and the Tribute Bands and the TV Talent Show Producers Have Won, If We Allow Our Culture to Be Shaped by Mimicry, Whether from Lack of Ideas or From Exaggerated Respect. You Should Never Try to Freeze Culture. What You Can Do Is Recycle That Culture. Take Your Older Brother's Hand-Me-Down Jacket and Re-Style It, Re-Fashion It to the Point Where It Becomes Your Own. But Don't Just Regurgitate Creative History, or Hold Art and Music and Literature as Fixed, Untouchable and Kept Under Glass. The People Who Try to 'Guard' Any Particular Form of Music Are, Like the Copyists and Manufactured Bands, Doing It the Worst Disservice, Because the Only Thing That You Can Do to Music That Will Damage It Is Not Change It, Not Make It Your Own. Because Then It Dies, Then It's Over, Then It's Done, and the Boy Bands Have Won.
