"The love I gave hangs in sad coloured, mocking shadows" - one of my favourite Jam lyrics, from The Bitterest Pill which isnt on your CD. Oh well, that's entertainment!
Speaking of which, the death of maurice gibbs, once again triggered an exchange of e-mails with a mate, the object of which is to work in a song title associated with the deceased, its a fun game, but this time was much better than usual just because of the well suited titles that the bee gees released, it went to about 20 e-mails describing how much of a tragedy it was, how it could start a chain reaction amongst the band how he should have concentrated on staying alive and how much of a heartbreaker it all was.Much fun!
and such i spend my days :)

The rest of the family want to investigate his death further. I think they have suspision that it wasnt a heart attack and was in fact saturday night fever.
Seriously though, its a bit weird that he died around the time that they're bringing out a new car called the Morris Gibb. Apparently it doesnt have alot of guts but goes down hill really fast!
Pah, thats just jive talkin' I heard they are releasing a tribute called "how deep is your bruv?"
This is a joke I heard when I was in primary school (=grade school), which unites the themes of Jam lyrics and Maurice Gibb being dead:-
Q: How do you show your ignorance [=uncouth ways] at a funeral?
A: Stand by the graveside as they're lowering the coffin and sing "Going Underground".
Ha bloody ha. If only someone would sing that at my funeral. Unless I get cremated, in which case I suppose it should be "Funeral Pyre". No, even better, "That's Entertainment" at my lying-in-state; just to hear "...and a kick in the balls" in church.
