Speaking of connections between manics and adam curtis' latest, there's a superb sequence at the end of part 4 that's set to the johnny boy track "you are the generation that bought more shoes and you get what you deserve". Produced by james of course, so the circle is becoming complete! I think i have the single somewhere.

Following on from the news that Sean lives in Huddersfield, I was out and about in one on the villages on Huddersfield's outskirts today when I spotted a high spec car which had the number plate "M10 JNK"
Unfortunately my excitement that I'd spotted Sean in the wild and he had a rather ridiculous Manics themed numberplate turned to disappointment when the driver appeared and wasn't him. Could have been his Dad I guess but wasn't Sean. |

If James has sang again with The Anchoress then that's out in a few weeks.
Probably more Manics stuff announced on same day or after. *Final position on it |

KYE released 19 March 2001. Do they ever release on the same day of the anniversary or is it just kinda same year-ish?

He was picked for a second chance or something like that, by a "backstage judge" or whatever they call him. I don't watch the show so not familiar with all the details.

Music reaction videos on youtube are a curious thing, i've watched a few and wondered if the manics ever crop up... There's not a great deal but this guy trying to get his friend in to them hasn't been going so well.
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...hmdLI9y17pAfA4 Can you guess which track unlocked the band for him? This, though, is a good one for how it opens up their discussion about body issues but what a hell of a first track to start with. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bkJLomZCPwM

I've subscribed to see what else he plays. I've seen a couple other channels doing this sort of thing with the manics that's been good. I think I've mentioned them in the thread but didn't provide any links. I'll see if I saved them. He should've shown the videos for all the singles rather than concentrate so much on the lyrics, agree with the bearded guy that you need to just listen to a song on the first go and absorb the song rather than worry about what's being said. Saw in the comments of 'the winning song' ( still shocked ) he loves lifeblood so I'll forgive all the biographical mistakes

The U.S. mix of Little Baby Nothing has way better Traci Lords vocals than the U.K. mix.
