a) If they're not writing lyrics to sell then they should really stop scalping fans in their efforts to manipulate the numbers to sell enough to get No. 1 albums shouldn't they and stop harping on about how much chart positions mean to them?
b) I may be wrong but I do believe they had quite a list of rules to follow in their writing in Richey's time, first to come to mind is "no love songs" but I do think there were more.
