He'd probably do a home-made video where he's in the shower crooning "WHY MUST I CRYYYYY"

his next single is guaranteed to be a flurry of seething anger (probably)

James Last's version of Summer In Dublin is very good - brings a tear to my eye.

Grayson will never make anything remotely as good as that.

Measured using GX Jupitter-Larsen's ruler?

 

[pissypants]

he even has a sample of the bus eireann recording.

I wonder did he license the audio from them, or if it's an illegal sample!

Edit: someone already said this...

 

[queen kong]

You're definitely a hater, leigh.
that's undeniable.

Dude's a tart. I'd love some withering press.

here's what the internet came up with when i looked for a 'LEGAL FAIL' image

I'm not entirely sure why this one is deeply funny, but it is....

Leigh I don't think he'd have a defamation case against you. Not all reviews are good, isn't that the point?
And did his PR company seriously think that you'd give him a good review when you yourself make electronic and experimental music? They should have done some research if they are looking to rack up some positive press quotes. I had a listen to the track and it is not the kind of music I'd listen to or buy or go to see live (ever) but there are probably some teenage/college kids out there who listen to ...(I'm at a loss as to names of mor bands) who would like it (because they know no better.

I think that you should just ignore the threats and enjoy the extra publicity your site will get

Hey!!!!?

the blog is absolutely identical - it was not changed at all; however the post had been leaked onto several other blogs, websites and twitter feeds and piles of seriously vile abuse started coming in via the comments section.

thus i closed the comments section, but the original post is still there in its entirety

 

[GO]

Sounds win to me.

Rep for Leigh!
