So..............

johanna is only voicing what the rest of us are thinking, jingl!

Unless, of course, there are others out there who haven't dared to yet declared their support?

I don't know any of the people you are talking about! What's wrong with Caruso?

right o.

Just thought it was an unpleasant way of expressing an opinion.

[shrug]

I see what you mean, jingl, but I'm sure johanna didn't mean it to come across that way.

no

They might be a bit ancient, a bit podgy and a bit gone to seed, like the rest of us, but that doesn't mean they're not still good musicians.

Or does it have to be only eye candy?

Of course not!

But aren't we supposed to be showing the rest of the world what's Great about Britain? I just think a more contemporary band might have given a better impression.

Actually they are still contemporary! They're on tour at the moment. They're always on tour somewhere. And put out new records.

Whats wrong with The Spice Girls ?

You may well blush, glamma!

jj are they not being used in the latest bt student advert?

I haven't seen that jacey.

Anagram just thought I would stir things up a wee bit I'm a bit on the bored side to-day.To be honest there is not one single group/singer that I would go out of my way to see playing at the opening ceremony.

Did not mean to cause offense jingle .
My Hahahaha is mirthfully , never mockingly.

I know it was a long time ago but I'm sure they got booed off the stage in America years ago for being so rubbish.

Who? The Spice Girls?

Ok then johanna.

Alright crimson. No need for you to join in.

Just seen a photo of Duran Duran 2012 in one of the Sunday papers, and I take back what I said, jingl! They don't look half bad!

Humph! [sniff]!

Who wants to lick the chocolate vanilla creme now then?

I wouldn't go that far....

Suit yerself!

I do know the name Duran Duran, but couldn't say what they look like or what they sang; do know Paolo Nutini as someone gave DH a CD some time ago. The rest? No.

So not really excited!

an eighties band? is it a retrospective?

Actually, the more I think about it the more the idea is growing on me. I've got a feeling that they bought out a new album a couple of years back which I intended to buy but didn't, and I do listen to their 'best of' cd sometimes. Save a Prayer is one of my favourite songs of all time. If they do a compilation type set it will go down really well.
