I'm not a particularly big fan of music, especially most of the dross in the charts, but I saw something today flicking through the channels that frightened me to the core.

It was a 'song' by the Cheeky Girls, imaginatively titled 'Cheeky Girls -Touch My Bum (that adds so much credibility, don't you think? Who do they think they are, Meatloaf?) or something. Basically, it was the biggest pile of crap I have ever heard, apparently the lyrics were written by their mum (she must be the only one who can write), and an album is 'in the works'. If utterly talentless people like this are the ones that seem to attain 'celebrity' status, or make money for this, then I feel sorry for every genuine learner of music.

If this gets anywhere in the charts, then I seriously fear for the future of the human race.

I saw this the other day and I too was compelled to write a post about it.

Mine was "Now I've seen it all" or something similar. Its at the bottom of the forum now and possibly even on the next page.

I've just noticed that I used the word "hence" twice in one post. Hence why I am posting this.

The charts have been full of utter toss for years, have you only just noticed?

In truth only little girls buy singles en masse nowadays, hence the direct pandering and marketing directed their way. Hence a band of five blokes called "Beefy boyz" singing about love and holding hands, has every chance of charting.

I'm going to buy it. And vote for them in all the polls.

Because it's living proof that you need no talent whatsoever to get into the charts. The pop world is full of junk, and it takes some real junk to show this fact off. Perhaps then people might realise what a state the charts are in, and start looking for proper music.

It does actually sound like 'dutch my bum'.

Very disturbing indeed.
