h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

All of a sudden he's everywhere; I woke up this morning to him on the radio, and I've seen his 'new' album advertised half a dozen times on TV today. Venus has also spotted him on the Sharon Osbourne show, of all places.

If you like music that is music; played on 'real' instruments, written by a human being rather than a committee of people who know best and released because it's actually very good music rather than something that just sells, you could do worse than check the boy out.

That's shocking! Venus watches the Sharon Osbourne show???

There's a Sharon Osbourne show? WTF?

I've just seen him in an advert

If you go to his page and find 'Yourspace' in the dropdown menu you can see a few videos. I defy anyone to hear the first few bars of Lady of the Sea without being utterly moved; it's the most beautiful song ever written bar none. Simple but astounding.

I've heard and it's good, but I'm still reeling from the knowledge that Ozzy's manager has got a TV programme.

Any ing half-baked celebrity can get one these days. Where's the surprise?

Meanwhile we're pumping the seas full of sh*t and wiping out most of the species we share the planet with, but as long as we can keep up with Jordan and Peter, it doesn't matter too much.

Jordan and Peter?

Now I am confused..

Just stick to Seth, love... it's easier

I promise

My surprise is that Ozzy's the famous bloke who was in a band that changed the face of rock music, and his bird's got a telly programme!

People are now realising that we're reducing the planet's ability to sustain human life. It might be too late, but the message is getting through. Alas, there are pink-traccied lard-arsed Argos botherers that'll never see the point. There are also besuited, multimillionaire flickwits that can't be bothered with the whole thing. And there are a lot of people on between that would do something if it was laid on a late for 'em. I think it's about time it *was* laid on a plate: decent recycling facilities (as in rubbish collections), tax on plastic bags, free solar & wind energy generators...

Ok, i am convinced! But very difficult for me to download stuff, as you know, so can i add it to the list of "when i get round to it, i'll send this CD to terri"

It's weird, 'cos as soon as you connect to the site it magically goes into frogsqueak!

I would like to point out i DON'T actually WATCH the Sharon Osbourne show...it just happens to be on when i get home
I bought Seth's cd at the weekend and it's great I highly reccomend it

He was even on Wogan yesterday morning - I sat listening and thinking "this guy is really good" then Wogie announced at the end that it was Seth. I hadn't heard it before because my PC kept hanging whenever I tried your link Rich.

Now you see why I'm so enthusiastic

Me too! He's quite pleasing to the eye aswell

Yes, he's almost enough to make one turn a little Roymondo

You're gonna regret that comment.

'Waits for Roymondo to drop by'
