Subject: RE: No man's land protest
I wasn't twisting it Tattiie Bogle. I picked up, in context, your claim that Joss Stone should write her own. That logic purely for her? Why can't she sing it but a retired social worker with a voice as flat as a fart and his finger in his ear can stand up in a pub and hope everybody is impressed? Not her greatest work for that matter, but I have heard it sung badly far more often than good. I wasn't too impressed with hindsight with my own rendition at a folk club last week.

I suppose one of the saddest parts of this is that two musicians, a singer and a guitarist I greatly admire have released what is, artistically, about the worst day in the recording studio they have had.

That's apart from any debate over RBL motives, belittling a powerful message in a powerful song or copyright cum royalities debate.

You know how Mudcat webpages have "in context" ads? Well mine the other day invited me to download it from iTunes........
