I’m Greg Scarth, yes I’m the real Greg, all you other…
Read post

I’m Greg Scarth, yes I’m the real Greg, all you other… – the next me? A scary prospect. Tom, you know full well that Eminem should be mentioned every day, never mind every week. We’ve been quite lax in letting it slip ov[…]

Oh come now, Celine’s not that bad! 
Read post

Oh come now, Celine’s not that bad! I suspect the readers of PTAHE! are voting with their ears rather than their eyes, for how else would that bleached goon Stefani be escaping righteous censure?[…]

I should go away more often
Read post

I should go away more often. I am basically staggered by the quality and range of the contributions made to NYLPM while I’ve been in Greece, and I thank everyone who contributed. To them I say: I kiss you! And keep it up. To anyone else I say: […]

Big Orange Crayon

Big Orange Crayon: if you link to me, I will link to you – such has been the inviolable rule of the blog since it crawled from the pre-Cambrian (or pre-1994, same difference) slime. Those who respect it not are poseurs and finks. This rule appl[…]

The problem that I have with Robbie Williams nicking hip hop lyrics
Read post

The problem that I have with Robbie Williams nicking hip hop lyrics for his new single, “Rock, DJ”, doesn’t come from the re-using of the rhymes. If taking a Slick Rick lyric (Williams uses “When I’m on the mike I rock t[…]

Not Wrong On Thong Song
Read post

“[The snares] sound like the snapping of Sisqo’s lady’s thong straps against her thighs as she swivels her hips to the beats”???
Tim, this is meant to be a nice clean family page! That kind of thing’ll have our readers a[…]

Globalisation and Subjectivity
Read post

I think the level of globalisation which we each perceive there to be is pretty subjective. Robin argues that we, the globally aware, may overestimate others. The difference I see, though, is that it’s not just internet users or amateur global […]
