I've had enough of it, it's driving me mad. I CANNOT be the only one, surely. I don't want to stand under your umbrella, the only thing I would like to do with it is fold it up and shove it somewhere. I'm sure you can guess where. Why is it still around? Why is it on the radio everytime I eject a tape (yes I'm back to the glorious old cassette since I changed cars)? Not only is it a terrible song but it seems to have inspired mass stupidity - and I don't mean those parting with their cash to download / buy it. I'm referring to those people who actually believe that it's presence at number one is responsible for all the rain we've been having. I wish I was making it up.
One thing I can't get enough of lately is this song:
I think I've overdosed on its beat but I always go back for more. I just hope I don't get accused of ripping it off...
I've been thinking lately about adverts and how they ruin things. As a result I've decided not to eat / buy / watch / drink / fornicate with / bank with / use or associate with anything that has an advert that has me reaching for the remote to hit myself in the head with. This means the following will not be getting any of my custom until they sort themselves out a new advertising agency:
Goodfellas pizza (this is a long standing hatred)
Wilkinson Sword (did you feel anything?)
Colgate 360
Right Guard
Halifax
Rice Krispies
The kitchen roll ad with elephants.. morons
Picture - or any loan / debt agency for that matter
Elephant insurance
PC World
Daz
On the other side of the coin I do enjoy the recent "make yourself at home" MFI ads and the on-going BT campaign. I won't mention the Penelope Cruz L'oreal advert as my liking for that is biased.
Payday is almost upon us so lets try and be cheerful now. With any luck Umbrella won't be at number one and the sun may, therefore, come out.
Party hard me hearties.
