Early, because he will never better, "Ha Richaaard! You are my lover!"

That or 'Braindead motherfuckers" wins for me.

The solo album. I think James should stick to doing all the Manics songs. He's not bad on WLW though.

If James had song on the demo version of She bathed herself in bleach on JFPL it would be my favourite song on either disc, it's a far better version than the grungy heavier one on the album. It brings out the tenderness in the lyrics much better.

If Nicky took the lead on My little Empire and James did backing that would have been tops of everything.
