Very sorry to hear this news. Benjamin Zephaniah was our radical poet laureate. Rest in power, my friend. https://t.co/h49oLkz0Ny

@angiesliverpool Doesn’t affect their cosy lives does it? If it was their children being bombed on the other hand, you may see a different outcome.

@Birmingham_81 From where Paul Weller lifted the bass line to ‘Town Called Malice’. He’s a big fan.

@tansleyjames This was Adrian Borland’s observation on Thatcher’s Britain in the early 80’s. The superbly dark lyrics make it just as relevant as ‘Ghost Town’. Two great songs that perfectly sum up that time.

@dradny @Bunnymen Me too, supported by The Blue Orchids. First ever gig.

Why is the return of S Club 7 being greeted by the media like some sort of Beatles reunion? They were shite first time around, and the lead singer is a proven racist, whose bullying nearly drove someone to suicide.

Strangers on a Train, the first episode of Whatever Happened to the Likely Lads?, was originally broadcast on this day in 1973.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing, following a brief illness, of Terry, our beautiful friend, brother and one of the most brilliant singers, songwriters and lyricists this country has ever produced. (1/4)
