I thought Soft Rock was bad. Wooly haired rockers doing ballads, whilst fans waved lighters, but what the heck is with all these soft-solo stars?

Will Young didn't sound too bad singing some stuff on Plop Idol, but Evergreen is such a pathetic song.

"I, like the sunrise" yeah, and Barbie dolls and daisy chains too no doubt.

Then there's the feeble one, Gareth Gates. He just looks like a puny bandy-legged child. With bad hair. And his version of Unchained Melody is crap, he says 'so' funny.

As if these two weren't bad enough, the radio also presented me with Darren Hayes. He's an Aussie man for Christ's sake, he should be wrestling crocodiles, not pouring his heart out like a little girl on his poncey record.

Robbie Williams will be laughing all the way to the bank. These p****-children have made him look quite good.

The only way any of them could save themselves would be to go down a self parody road, and cover "Mr Soft".

Thing I don't get, is how do these people get so popular? Ok, so they're young and we don't like old people anymore. But, they don't write their own songs. They normally just rip off other peoples - Gareth Gates. They don't play instruments and they're always smiling and happy.

We want violence. We want them to come on stage with attitude and swear at us and tell us how much they hate us, instead of how much they love us.

Yes, Rock does indeed ROCK, but the station we're tuned into at work seems to know not of it's existence.

They're currently playing Charles and Eddie - Would I Lie to You?

You need the power of ROCK in your life Meka.

Music made by large men with guitars, red-faced and quite often spitting to one side before shouting "HELL YEAH" and ROCKING.

This music is for little girls and fans of Elton John.
