Ha ha! Well I hope you know I'm not calling anybody a moron. It's just a case of people being unaware of the things happening on a distant set of tiny islands, which isn't the worst of crimes. I'm surprised we're not mentioning Sade, Corrine Bailey Rae or Llianne la Havas though - do people in the US realise they're…

Show me the line where the blues become country, or where soul becomes pop.

How would you find out?

Very true. Also we're getting it in the neck as a country from Americans because they bought Adele's pop soul records and not Emeli Sandé's, when we sent both of them to the top of the UK charts several times each! If Emeli Sandé is invisible to them, it's not for anyone's want of trying over here.

Curry is our national dish because Sake Dean Mahomed came to Brighton and opened the first curry houses, but I take your point!

I never would have thought of describing him a soul singer, to be honest. If you asked me to think of popular soul singers, I could have taken all day over it and still not mentioned his name.

Did the Beastie Boys' success prevent people from commenting on it?

This French book is great, too:"The School of Venus, or the Ladies' Delight". This is an English translation from a London print, 1680 - I'm not sure how old the original book itself is though http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=_9dNA…

The game only came out a few months ago! SPOILERS, ffs.

It is, and not even aged. She's just got different makeup and hair, and it's a look that dramatically changes anyone who wears it.

I'm looking forward to this so much. I wish I had the self-control to wait for part two so I wouldn't have to play it halfway and then wait for the ending, but... nope.

I have to laugh watching people criticise the marketing for being mildly hyperbolic. Apparently it should say: "XBox One - It's The Least We Could Do! Literally!"

Agreed! (Disagreed? :P )

I reckon that's the exact reason why it's orange and not red, but as you say that's not really far enough away to avoid the association. Maybe they should have picked turquoise or something.

I see, sorry. I thought the picture itself was cropped the way my browser was displaying it.

Oh :( I didn't click through to the other story.

Because he's the one telling the story. Guards turn up, he jumps to conclusions, too angry to believe her protestations, seconds later becomes a fugitive monster. Happens to me allllll the time.

Mate, I can't really carry on talking about this for more days! This is simply not something you can replicate in real world conditions. Show me the studies where people have proved this is happening and I might change my mind, but I've never seen ones that prove it. It would be a dangerous ability to have - imagine…

Or Aphex Twin, trying his hardest to look creepy
