WHY OH WHY OH WHY!!
Why does he do this?! Please stop trying to ruin good music for me Dave, I agree it is working it's trick by getting him more attention (if possible) before Thursday, but it is also incredibly embarrassing and cringy x 100. I think he perhaps needs to realise that he is not cool, mainly because of his massive face and the fact he is a Conservative, so can he please stop tarring good bands - who have probably worked hard and do not need this association right now - with his daddy cool brush. Perhaps someone recommended them to him from their song Intro featuring on the BBC Election coverage advert...
That said, it did intrigue me to find out more bands he 'likes'.. In a similar way to when you can't help but watch Britains Got Talent. I have found something which is much worse than his like for The XX, he likes the lead singer of my favourite band of all time = Morrissey. However, I will actually give him maybe half a percent of credit because he humorously realises this is not good news for potentially the best lyricist of all time:
"I’m sure when Morrissey finds that he’s getting an endorsement from the leader of the Conservative Party, he will think ‘Heaven Knows I’m Miserable Now’. But I’m a big fan, I’m afraid. Sorry about that.”
Moz replied with something fairly tame (for once), considering one of his solo records is called 'Margaret on the Guillotine': 'It’s difficult to make comment because you might hurt people’s feelings.” And apparently Dave also likes Johnny Marr's part time dabbling in Modest Mouse too. Of course.
I always thought he was ignorant when it came to music and real people, from back in the day when he randomly took a lyric from one of Lethal Bizzle's songs and linked it directly to influencing street/gun/knife crime. Because apparently young people are so hollow they will do whatever a song tells them to. But unsurprisingly this slander wasn't researched and Bizzle rightfully shot down Dave's comment, by saying he had actually worked with troubled youths trying to make it clear to them there is are alternatives to crime. I hate sweeping generalisations so this made me angry, hence my understandable anger towards his apparent fondness of good music...
Another sign that Dave isn't cool is the fact that even Keane thinks he's lame! Keane! Apparently he used their 'Everybody's Changing' song as background music on a manifesto VT and they weren't very happy about it. Frankly I think they should be happy they have at least one fan, even if he is a douche. Also, Dave admitted he loves Paul Weller's song 'Eton Rifles', which is ANTI-Etonian... errrr?!?! This has been done before, word on the 'dufus politicians' grape vine is that ex President Ronald Regan thought Brucie's 'Born in the USA' was a patriotic tribute, whereas it was actually anti-Vietnam. I think it is fairly obvious politicians need to do their research before name dropping/slandering!
I don't like that he likes good music. I don't like it at all. It makes me feel uncomfortable so I am going to pretend it's all terrible terrible a lie.
