Boy Don’t Cry

He’s good – so was the song and so was the vid. Not the most relevant of questions….but I’d be curious to know whether or not he wrote the piece himself. I remember him from last time (his previous milkboys vid). I liked him then, too.

Oh no. Do you mean that I’ve been sucked in (again) by an attractive youth covering an emo ballad? That just shows how weak my knowledge of contemporary pop is….He does have a good voice, though. And he does have an interesting style.

Did you have to mention The Empty One? Watching that video very nearly sucked the soul straight out of my body. It was a very distressing experience…

“… I do have a soft spot for Scandanavians.”

The good looking ones are certainly very good looking. But I recently watched a programme on BBC4 about Scandinavian “noir” literature….and I must say that the place itself came across as being somewhat charmless. The city architecture in particular looked a bit blank, to me. But Scandinavian society might well be a lot more interesting on the inside than it appears to be on the outside. I wouldn’t know. And the programme didn’t take us that far.
