Ive always liked this song, but more than that, I think Natalie Imbruglia atually deserves a bit of respect as a musician, and is more than just another soap star turned pop star .


(Live)


Anyone else like / respect an artist, whom they feel doesn't get due credit, or taken seriously?

Nobody ever really got Mansun in the 90's.


Attack Of The Grey Lantern was/is an absolute gem of an album, but they were always overlooked for awards due to being entirely uncharismatic and blase to the point of completely not caring about the prospect of winning anything.


Highlights are 'The Chad Who Loved Me' and 'Taxloss'. Look em up on YouTube...

The Bluetones - most people that remember them (and that isn't many) think they split up ages ago, but they are still going, releasing new material and touring regularly, and they always put on a good show.


Perhaps they haven't yet topped their first album, but there are a lot of much less talented bands getting much more attention these days.

It is funny how things change because in reality back in the 1970s ABBA for instance were treated as a bit of a joke, naff and not very talented by anyone who 'took their music seriously' - and gaaawwd people did then - whereas now they are (rightly) lauded as great songwriters and artists. Still not my cup of tea mind.
I also think that loads of black artists from the 1970s certainly didn't get enough credit as only their highly commercialised disco stuff got any air play and into the charts. Listen to some early Commodores or Kool and the Gang. I don't think George Clinton gets enough credit either.

Christ there's loads of them, where to start :-S


OK one example, Rory McLeod, possibly MacLeod, f-ing brilliant, clearly someone is giving him credit as we can't afford him at The Goose Is Out! but who on this forum except for me has ever heard of him?? Used to be a busker and one-man-band :)-D

My favourite is 'where's my jumper' closely followed by 'kick me with your leather boots'. Takes me back (not the kicking anyone with leather boots part).

Yes it most certainly is.

I think the pair of you should be put into a padded cell, strapped to chair and forced to listen to Bewitched on repeat until you come to you senses. Mind you with taste like that you'd probably enjoy the experience.

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
