The Nationwide Music Prize is tomorrow! DiS gets Isobel Campbell's thoughts on her chances...
can I ask
what the hell is that advert?!
can I ask
for your hand in marriage?
a) What was controversial about 'Ali In The Jungle'?
b) Why wasn't their album as good as I was hoping?
c) I used to have a huge crush on Maty-Ann Hobbs before I saw her face. (more of a statement than a question)
Answers on a postcard.
* Mary!
Yikes
controversially
wasn't playlisted on radio 1 - aside from that - beats me. It's about as controversial as having tea with biscuits
YOU BETTER NOT BE FUCKING DUNKING!
This country's going to hell in a handcart because of people like you.
I've definitely tried dunking more than once
...but I've not tried that particular variant! Doesn't it make the tea taste funny?
Its controversial because...
it has naughty words in it. And also because a song this good was so criminally ignored on its first release. Now thats controversy.
Er...
The radio edit that they played on BBC 6 didn't swear. And 'damn' rhymed with 'Ludwig Van', which ACTUALLY made it a bit better.
Gawd I knoooooow
I was being sarcastic, its hardly the stuff of taboo to include swear words in songs these days is it.
AGREED.
I didn't even realise it was a radio edit until I recieved the album sampler. The 'damn' version is way better, the 'fuck' version really cheapens the song and sentiment...
