If you ever get to see Reg singing live, eanjay, then the story about the lives of his parents, will move you to tears.   

And last night, his much loved and beautiful dog, Woody, who is on the cover of 'Short Stories' (on the link above) passed away.

What comes out, when I listen to the music of Reg, and many other songwriters too, is the total opposite of Ross and Brand. There are many deeply sensitive people out here, and for far too long now, we've had to endure living in a de-sensitised world, ruled over by people who don't give a damn who they hurt or upset.

The BBC needs to change, as do many, many other radio stations, TV programmes and the media in general, because, you know what, there is NOTHING wrong in being sensitive.

So, with regard to Ross and Brand, it's not just about what happened that day, but it's the beginnings of the sensitive people coming back, saying we've had enough and that there is a different way to live, other than this crass, crude and cruel way that has been 'imposed' on us for so long, by those who think that unkindness is OK.

It's not.
