Not a fan of Take That I'm afraid. Don't really here the similarity but couls just be me of course! If they get mistaken for TT and loads of teenage girls buy it I won't complain!

Teenage girls??? Not any more, they're all late 20's to early 30's now!

I never liked all the histrionics that surrounded Take That, but having them still around (and not looking too ropy) makes me feel teenaged again. Their songs still sound good. I don't care if they aren't high art, everyone needs a bit of cheap pop to make the world a better place for 3 and half minutes.

From reading some of the threads tonight, you two are becoming like a little forum double-act. Very cute. I keep seeing someone just starting their posts with: "Gutless,..."
