Lyrical diversity

I was close to spontaneous combustion when I read that our beloved MSP had topped this chart for largest number of words used in songs...

...then I realised it was the first three albums (IWRWHW) and that this Wales Online study is a bit... Welsh.

And to top it off...

Quote:
But despite their confrontational, establishment-hating message, the Manic Street Preachers' most used word in their first three albums is "love"
They were even at it back then. It's more or less the only word they use nowadays. "We don't talk about love... much."

Asked if he was pleased that his band's masterful use of vocabulary had been recognised, JDB had this to say: "Kindalike you know indelibly."
