Nah, you've no idea what you're talking about lol.
You want manics songs to have lyrics like these:

A sweet-voiced bird's been caught.
They squeeze it in a vice-like grip.
The poor thing squeaks and warbles not
But they insist: "O, birdie, sing!"

or

Bent o'er his sabre, torrents starting
From his dim eyes, the bold hussar
Thus greets his cherish'd maid, while parting
For distant fields of war:

'Weep not, my fair one! O forbear thee!
No anguish can those tears remove;
For, by my troth and beard, I swear thee,
Time shall not change my love.

Christ that sounds amazing!

Imagine the music Bradfield would write around that! He'd go all Nick Drake!

Actually on second thoughts *shudders*

Hahahaha reading those two posts in succession made me howl and I'm not sure why.

It must be a lot of pressure to be THE JDB.

[The Gutless Wonder]

There's only one JDB!

If this stops Nicky Wire writing any more lyrics then we can all be agreed that we can live happily.

Until JDB is caught on and is forced to wear his balls in a sling in Cardiff Gaol.

God bless

Russian poetry? I can't understand anything...

GOOD CALL!!!! WELL SAID!!!!!
I AGREE ALL THE WAY....

I want to let all those ppl who are talking shit about the Manics to stop arsing around and leave us ( the ones that still like the band) alone... it is ok to post our thoughts and ideas but there are some of them that are just playing rude and that is truly annoying. That's why I don't come here as I used too. I have better things to read and look at.

Nicky is talented and yes, some of his lyrics are fucking WORLD CLASS!

have you even listned to the lyrics? :O if he can't write then Joan Rivers have aged naturally.
