It's got the lot from pathos to anger, deprivation to wealth and those guys certainly could brew up a storm.

As for trancending and thus reaching out to non specific race, age and gender they did more than any politician could hope for in their wildest dreams.logdonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14181669235401052325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6214838.post-29138277051244482392009-04-18T13:44:00.000+01:002009-04-18T13:44:00.000+01:00James Blunt?
