Mr Simon Cowell Esq.

He is rampong this weekend by telling the newspapers he is leaving xfactor. He is of the opinion that his show has created  an enormous "Buzz" in the industry.

He now wants his own TOTP show. I sit here listening to John Martyn and looking at a list of songs from 1970.

There is a buzz about poular music. Its the Buzz of the blue bottles around the maggot infested rotting corpse of Pop. Cowell is a vulture and a Hyena. With the reptilian grin of one that makes money from the gullibility of fools.

Like me.

About 1955 to circa 1995. It was good while it lasted. Pop music RIP.
