I think she is talented, but she comes across as really up herself and I can't really understand why.. It's annoying as people like Amy Winehouse, who have staggering talent and attitude to match are unheard of and Joss Stone is swanning around like the queen of England. I just wish she would bring out something good you know? I knew good music when I was 18, I just don't think her attitude and her music match.

Ok - Jamie Cullum is the sort of guy you used to find harmlessly plunking away at standards on a piano in a distant corner of an overpriced pizza parlour. Then, recently, the music industry decided that bland was the way to go (see James Cunt - sorry, Blunt - i.e: not sharp), so they hyped the pizza parlour piano plunker. Unfortunately, they also got him to sing, and he really can't. Now, I'm not doubting his technical mastery of the piano, but Elton John he ain't. And then there's his voice - so utterly bland and devoid of character and emotion it sounds like software. In England he appeals to 14 year old girls and half-deaf grandmothers. In fact, his record company deliberately marketed his new album to girl schools. No kidding.

And yes, he is also a complete and fucking twat. Bring back National Service!!!!

Amy Fucking Winehouse!!! That bitch sends me to sleep. Her voice is a poor pastiche of Billie Holiday and Erykah Badu. Her music sounds like it was designed for elevators and answering machines with childish obnoxious lyrics thrown on top and as a performer she has no charisma at all. And that "attitude" you speak of is actually just the mouthiness of a brat. She has no more depth than Beyonce.

And now the truth comes out. You get the hots for him then you convince yourself he's a great artist just because you want his body. Record execs understand the female teenage mind and know exactly how to exploit it. He may be cute but his music is bland beyond belief.

Amy Whitehouse is Britain's answer to Advil Latrine. So which stupid twat asked the question?

whoknows said:

Yes, they're very sinister people, record execs. British adolescent girls get Jamie Condom, British post-adolescent girls get James Cunt. Then they grow up and get married to Robbie Williams' Angels. The world is ending one shit singer at a time.

well if his new live cd is geared towards 14 year old girls.. buy me a pink dress, barbie dolls and some ice cream.. cause it is pretty good.

I had no idea Back Off The Ground was co-written by Ed Harcourt... very cool.

You know, you're only doing Jamie's image good with comments like that.

How to Market Jamie Cullum To Grown-Ups Part One:

Take cute pizza parlour piano player and get him to cover songs by "cool" (TM) songwriters - (i.e: by Pharell , Radiohead , Jeff Buckley , et al) - to appeal to less discerning AOR listeners - (i.e: those who think "Sittin' On The Dock Of The Bay" is a Michael Bolton original, who take a lot of elevators and use a lot of shopping mall toilets with piped-in muzak). Trust me,it'll work.

No. I'm a 39 year old man that knows what he likes. I absolutely love JIMMY SCOTT and he's an ugly lil 70 year old jazz singing man. So don't try that logic with me.

Make up your mind. On Page 1 of this thread you were a 14 year old pussy owner, now you're a 39 year old dick owner. What are you gonna be in 5 posts time, a martian?

As stated awhile back i dont get why such venomous hatred of the lad.

I mean post once and say what you think, but to continue coming back to the trough again and again just kinda makes what every valid point you may have had kinda moot.

Because he's crap and looks like he's going to be around for at least another album.
