What Easter holidays are all about....

2004-04-05T11:45:00.000+01:00

How you know you experienced the 1990's...

You owned a compilation tape with top tunes such as "Mr.Vain", "What is
love" and "Rhythm is a dancer" on it!

You judged a girl on who she fancied from Take That! (Robbie: you were
cool. Gary Barlow: you were not!)

You wore plastic dummies around your neck, the bigger and more luminous the better!

You went away and returned with a hair wrap!

You remember when Blur were better than Oasis.

You bought Smash hits for the song lyrics and the immense amount of
stickers that you would stick everywhere!

Push 'n' pop lollies were so conventional, you could save them for
later!

You made a key ring or ornament out of prima or fimo!

Do the Bartman, I didn't do it, nobody saw me do it, cant prove
anything!

Bold and the Beautiful and Sunset Beach when you were off sick from school!

You had at least one troll! (unless you were my sister then you had 100..with names AND birthdays)

You believed zack from saved by the bell died in a car crash (he didn't.. just went into porn)

You owned a Mood ring!!

You watched Byker Grove

You went into the Body shop to put on vanilla or dewbury perfume!

Count duckula, Trap door, Duck Tales and The Cities of Gold!

Ear cuffs ???!!!

You once used Wella Plum mousse or Sun-in in your hair that you thought was totally original and highly stylish.

Platform trainers ??

Oh nostaligia. Does this mean we're getting old?

Man of the Month

Girls...(or boys)..this is Dan and he is Fairie Random Thoughts' Man of the Month. He is my newest friend and it's his 18th birthday in 19 days. He is very funny, he can sing and dance and he always smells very nice. He's a bit special but it's ok as long as you speak slowly and explain big words in "Dan language". He even rides a scooter! You can email him by clicking here.

Newflash: Fairie left speechless...

Last night me and Jedi and our new and special "Jesus Christ Superstar" friends went to see "The Passion of the Christ". It is important to realise that in doing so we were clearly having a "biblical moment" and as such only referred to eachother in character names. I'm sure our Jedi would have worn his crown of thorns if they'd given it to him yet... Anyway the film. Oh. My. God. Literally.
I havent had one of my "this is why i studied theology" moments for a long time now but i had a big one last night. Yes, i left the cinema wondering if i believe in God... I'm over it now but i did wonder fleetingly. Yes it was violent, Yes i looked away in parts and Yes i'm sure it was very much, as the Pope himself said..."as it was". I don't think it was anti semetic, and i don't think it should be banned. So what do i think? I honestly don't know. Do i want it to be true? Yes.. I think i do. And i think that scares me...

Begs the question though... Just how far can 8 pints of blood actually go?

2004-04-03T16:49:00.000+01:00

Do girls not want to be pop stars anymore?

I don't get it. Where have all the girls gone in pop? I was a bit gutted about Atomic Kitten splitting up. Me and Pheebs went to the concert and they were wonderful, even if Tash did look like a 12 year year old boy with breast implants. The Sugababes are so bitchy and apparently Girls Aloud are on their last legs. I know we still have Britney, but Toxic was just luck really. Mcmanus didnt even manage a one hit wonder and Kylie is going to get married and have babies. Madonna has sold her soul to the devil and most pop princesses these days only seem to manage one single then vanish! (I mean...what can Rachel Steven's possibly be doing with herself at the moment???) Don't even start me on Beeeyoonceee.. woh! woooo! wooo! Can anybody actually name any of her other singles...?

I think my time is drawing near....

2004-04-03T16:11:00.000+01:00

Can I hear the flutter of fairie wings?
It's been a while aint it? I'm pondering giving my little online world a face lift to celebrate my return...ho hum.
So whats been going on in Fairie World? (what a theme park that would be!)

Jesus Christ Superstar Well. It only seems like two posts ago we'd auditioned and now next week its the big day or 3. I sort of know what I'm doing, but the whole singing and dancing lark is a bit distressing. Jedi wants a fake tan but i'm not sure how it'll mix with the "blood" and I'm just dying to get him on the cross....(muuummrrrah). Tickets are still available(contrary to what my Dad says... aye aye) and you can book by calling 01922 653183 We (the cast la di da) are off to see The Passion of the Christ tonight. So we'll have Jesus, Herod, Simon, lame man and Pilates Wife (among other things) sitting in the cinema...if only we had our costumes. What is also extremely exciting is that when someone on the cast did a google search about the show "Fairie Random Thoughts" came up tops!! woo hoo....

Karaoke Everywhere is doing Karaoke competitons at the moment. So far only Jedi has managed to win a heat of the Yates' 2004 "wannabe" competiton (singing a fantastic rendition of Robbie Willi- I mean Derek Duvall's Hot Fudge...listen to the music). OOOh competitons vex me, I never know what to sing! Norah isn't "commercial enough", Shakira is too "obscure" and celine.. well... 'nuf said. Me, Jedi and King of Pop are all in a final on bank holiday monday so fingers crossed! Its at a casino in Dudley where excitingly enough there is an easter bonnet parade next friday!

My new niece or nephew My sister is not far off giving birth for the fourth time and we need a name for the bambino. This name can be no name you have ever heard before. We need inspiration cos at the moment Glamour and Blaize are the favourites. Please... it's your duty.

My new *diva* status Jedi and King of Pop have taken to calling me Diva, which i actually quite like. But shhh! don't tell them cos they might stop it...

My flat We are now in the 8th week of flat watch and i still don't have my keys. My consistent surveilance however has reliably informed me that the walls of my living room appear to be a lovely shade of AQUA. Thank God it's easter and daddy will paint it for me.

Those are the basics... more to come.

This Fairie sure can flirt...
Praise today, for today the fairie becomes mobile... Laptops are the new desktops, Windows XP the new cool. All I want is a decent screensaver....

2004-01-11T22:25:00.000Z

Jesus Christ...
Well. We went, we sung and we even bloody danced and the Jedi and me (and pheebs) pulled it off. On the 15th, 16th and 17th of April you can come and see us both in Jesus Christ Superstar at Walsall Town Hall. We're not sure how but our Jedi managed to pull off getting the title role of Jesus, Son of God. Me? I shall be parading it as a Soul Girl. How really very exiting. Thats one of my "must do before 40" ambitions out of the way... Bring on the lapdancing lessons...

You can book tickets (£7.50 adults £5.50 concessions) by calling 01922 653183.

2004-01-09T23:47:00.000Z

Oh golly...it's all gone a bit wrong...
Village photo's dot com have now decided that they want to charge me to link to my pictures, hence "fairie random thoughts" looking somewhat pictureless at the moment...what a stress. Does anyone know of another site i can use? Its enough to turn my fairie hair a whiter shade of pale....

2004-01-06T16:28:00.000Z

She's so Lucky...
Oh Britney. What were you thinking? They sure don't make them too purty in Texas do they? Golly, I don't blame you for not consumating your "marriage" and lucky for you that you didn't. I know he's your "Childhood Friend" but had i have been him I'd have claimed my conjugal rights and then took you for half your purty fortune...But then again...It's Britney. Of course I would...sigh. Dunno about his Gran though....eew.

2004-01-06T15:47:00.000Z

Oops....I did it again.
Ok it's official. I am a crap Fairie, but it is indeed my new years resolution, amongst other things, to dedicate myself to the entertainment of the general public. I shall achieve this in several ways.

Through this website. I know how entertaining you must all find it...(ahem!)

I intend to win Pop Idol 3. Not sure how... but if that bloody Michelle can then I'm sure i must stand a half way decent chance...and i have GENUINELY lost three stone since the start of Pop Idol 2!

Me and Pheeb's have an audition on Sunday to be in Jesus Christ Superstar. Obviously, diva that I am, I want to be Mary. 'Nuff said. I might even pretend to believe in God for the day...and I don't do that to teach RE!

I'm going to move out. This will affect "entertainment" in two ways. Firstly, I'll have fabulous house parties dahhlings where we can play Steps:The board game. Secondly, All you people i drive everywhere can bloody think again!(hint hint). So many places will suddenly become "out of my way". Wherever i goddamn live.

So. Im excited....are you?

2003-12-08T16:04:00.001Z

OOOH!! Can i make a December resolution?
Sorry for being such a bad fairie, I havent been sitting still long enough to updaye lately so it's time for one of my big overviews of life, the universe and everything!

Pop Idol: Disgusted i am. NONE of them deserve to win. I fully supported the getting rid of Susanne, cos she was really crap on big band night (I hear playboy have offered her a centrefold...she's turned it down). Also as time went by i realised she wasn't as original as i first thought as she began to grate on my nerves in a Sophie Ellis Bextor kind of way. I like Michelle as someone to go down the pub and have a pint with but i dont think she should win. Mark, bless him, nice but not enough and bloody Sam, who WILL win...doesn't even have the umph Gareth nearly had. Its just all very DISTINCTLY AVERAGE. Thank God Chris has gone though...A person has not made me feel that physically sick since Ken Dodd and Jimmy Somerville.

Kylie: Must try harder.

I *heart* my digital camera: But i don't *heart* the batteries going all the time.

Christmas: Ok, I will admit I am sort of excited. I even bought A Christmas decoration. I even, in a moment of Kym Marsh sentimentality, took a photo of St Martins all lit up and snowy yesterday on my new phone. However, my biggest expression of festivity is Christmas mouse and Christmas bear. They are my friends. Oh and i bought a funky tree thingy. Tee hee.

My sister: I decided to leave her post on my blog for all to read to show that beneath my fairie persona I am indeed a real human being. In case some of you were worried. Im scared of heights and not good on pedestals.

Girls singing Boys songs on the Karaoke: I think I'm gonna break my own rule and sing "Sexed Up". Maybe tonight. I don't know why, i feel drawn to it. And Pheeb's was very excited about finding an early acoustic demo of it on the "No Regrets" single. Bless.

That'll do for now. I'm sure there was more but i need Pheeb's to remind me.

2003-11-29T00:48:00.000Z

It's not even December.....!
Now those of you that know me will know i am not a Christmassy person. I am very distressed by the amout of tacky nasty vile outdoor decorations that have been popping up out of
no-where over the last couple of weeks. I am even more distressed that my Freaky Sister is putting up our decorations tomorrow. It goes against all of my principles.

I think all decorations should be banned until the 13th December.

However today we like Freaky Sister because she bought (read: lent me money for...) me a digital camera. I went for style...I am a girl after all (see below).

I'll curse anyone who says i do. Fairies can do that you know.

If Keanu Reeves was a cat...

...he would look like this.

2003-11-03T18:47:00.000Z

OOOH...Room 101
I just overheard on the Television that a new series of Room 101 is on BBC 2 tonight. Not that i'll be watching it but what 3 things would you put in Room 101 if you had the choice?

I'm going to think about this extremely carefully. And i think you all should too.

2003-11-03T18:36:00.000Z

Pop, Justice AND a Party!!
On the 5th December me and Pheebs are going to journey to the city where the streets are paved with gold (well, old beer cans) to attend the Pop Justice nearly Christmas Party. We are very excited, which is surprising considering mine and Pheeb's experiences of meeting wierdo's off the internet in the past (so another story...) Needless to say, Fairy Cakes this doesn't include you and we hope very much to meet you there!! So don't be worried, it is in a very public place (even if it is in Camden) and even though alcohol (but guess who's driving??!!) will be available i trust we will be safe. If not, King of Pop gets first choice of everything i own. Except my eyes. The rest you can fight it out for...

(didn't i use a lot of brackets??)

2003-11-03T18:29:00.000Z

Happy Birthday Derek!

Have a cake/beer on me... Dunno about you but i reckon there's something a bit wrong about the head on that.

2003-11-02T20:10:00.000Z

Our Forests are now a Safer Place...

Thanks for the reassurance Mr Duval.

2003-11-01T15:57:00.000Z

Must Try Harder...

2003-11-01T15:07:00.000Z

Last Night...
...me and Pheebs went to see my mate Rich and his band do the Robbie thing at the Rock Cafe in Stourbridge with the dazzling (and very drunk) Derek Duval. We had a marvellous time and even had some fairycake! In fact i think you should all visit the Live Thru a Lens website by clicking here. They are really very good and i also think everyone should go to see them on Christmas Eve at the afore mentionned venue. You can book tickets by clicking here for the not at all unreasonable cost of 8 english pounds. We've been promised "Me and My Monkey"...I might go dressed up as Sunshine for a laugh.

My thoughts on......Pop Idol II
Ok a new feature on "Fairie Random Thoughts", because clearly my opinion is very important.

I couldnt be bothered to watch the whole whittling down process so i waited 'til we got the final 12 before becoming an avid Pop Idol II viewer. I fully supported the outtage last week of Kirsty and Leon...and will be watching with interest now the shows become "themed".

My (incredibly important and influential) thoughts so far are as follows;

I don't approve of Andy Scott-Lee being in the competition at all. The overnight decline in his sister's "popularity" should have been enough to put him off the business for life. Nice to see Michelle Heaton lent him some of her St Tropez though....it must be love.

I dont approve of the grouping of the "fat girls" Kim and Michelle. Just because they are fat they are being labelled as divas and worst still they don't seem to mind. I'm just hoping it isn't because they feel grateful to be there and to have been given the chance despite not being "typical" pop idols....I shall watch with interest what the stylists will do to them as the weeks go on (I bet there's lots of glitter)...I don't think they'll be out just yet.

Sam looks like an extra from Busted.

All the boys blend into one. And i refuse to back the one from Darlaston just because he comes from a place kind of near to where i live. Why? because he is shit.

Roxanne. Hmmm. Not made my mind up yet. My mind is screaming Zoe bloody Birkett but i might be wrong.

I *heart* Ant and Dec.

I should be in the final 12. Simple as.

My biggest thought however is about who should win....Susanne!! She's fresh, quirky and most of all seems quite sincere!! So from now on...this website fully supports you Susanne!! Just remember us when you're rich and famous!!

(i wonder if i mention her name enough my website will come up on google searches???!!)

2003-11-01T13:45:00.000Z

Excited... (clap hands)

OOOH it won't be long now before Kylie releases her new album Body Language. As i thought it probably would, Slow has indeed grown on me and i expect i will sing it on the Karaoke just to keep King of Pop happy. I do feel better about the new album since i recieved the Pop Justice newsletter this morning and Mr PJ himself likes it a lot, despite one song sounding like Liberty X apparently. I am not sure however, about this new french look our Kylie is sporting... If only i could see it in person at the album launch concert...to buy tickets (for me) click here

2003-11-01T13:38:00.000Z

Not felt like this since Steps....
Today i realised i do indeed truly love Girls Aloud in a Steps kind of way. Its a beautiful feeling. Bring on the action figures...(I wonder if Tweedy's will be able to complete household chores?)

2003-10-26T17:18:00.000Z

Me and Laura watched Moulin Rouge this afternoon and as usual it made me very pensive and sad. Why does Satine have to die? Why is the Duke so ugly? Has that strange midget girl got any work since? and did that bloke manage to wash all the blue body paint off? The film does however question the supposed very purpose of our very existence.... to fall in love...but does the film paint an overly romantic notion of the entire process? Maybe I'm overly cynical but do things ever work out like that? And if it does...can you possible survive it all ending? I'd rather die of anything but a broken heart...
Despite that slightly depressing edge, it is a bloody great film - it's a little bit funny and indeed kylie's brief starring role was the inspiration for my alternative persona! If there are any more Laura's out there who haven't seen it yet (randy) make sure you do so very soon...with tissues ahoy!
Showgirls next ya dirrty whores!

2003-10-25T11:35:00.000+01:00

And we all had a ball!

It is true...I must be psychic...(or psychotic I'm not sure which...)Atomic Kitten did indeed play at the Carphone Warehouse Company Ball a couple of weeks ago....and how fabulous were they? VERY!
I was extremely pleased my own dancing skills were highlighted by the girls, who looked lovely...but Tash is way too thin and they all have very straw like hair! Oh to be a popstar!

2003-10-25T10:50:00.000+01:00

Slow...
Aren't i just? goodness....

However i am back. It's half term. And can you read my....body language?

Happy Birthday to Me
Yesterday it was my birthday. Well, technically not. I'm not the queen or anything, but yesterday "Fairie Random Thoughts" was 1 month old. I'm not even bored yet... hooray! On another vaguely related note, it was Stanley's Dad's birthday on Monday. Tonight we're having a party....hooray again!

Song Lyrics of the Day...
Today I feel a bit philosphical.

"Its when you believe in the things that you don't understand, thats when you suffer"

I havent really got anything to say about it. I salute you Stevie Wonder. I'm sure that makes your existence worthwhile.

2003-10-08T00:21:00.000+01:00

Welcome Return...
I have always loved Atomic Kitten. I love their slighty trashy/classy look, i love the sound of Tash's voice and most of all i love their album tracks (Bye Now, Strangers,Walking on the Water...i could go on).
Now, if i'm honest, I haven't heard the new single much, but i love the video and I am hoping with all my fairie heart that the rumours are true and that they are going to be performing at the Carphone Warehouse Company Ball next Saturday. Its a pop act...they're interrupting a tour to perfrom for us...and thats all we know. Watch this space.

2003-10-05T18:45:00.000+01:00

Return of the Pop Princess
Ooh what a hecticly floopy week it's been, but what a fabulous world of pop I return to...I am extremely excited at the moment by the infusion of pop excellence that is preparing to invade the charts...
Presently...

I am very happy that Britney is back to regain her crown, and i KNOW she won't let us down. I wish i was her.

I am loving Holly Valance's new single, even though i really didn't want to. I still think she mings though.

I too have Ricki Lake on play.

I am concerned about the new Kylie single. Watch this space.

I am intrigued by The Darkness

I am changing my opinion of Emma Bunton. Maybe rocks.

I am distressed by Sophie Ellis-Bextors' dodgy Blonde hair. And i don't like her single either. Or the sound of her voice come to mention it.

I think that'll do for now.

2003-09-27T12:45:00.000+01:00

Shock Horror...

Today when i visited the lovely Flum's lovely website i read a story about the love of my life for the last 15 years, Mark Paul Gosselaar. Oh how i loved him. Oh how i cried when i thought he was dead. Oh how i smiled (wickedly) when i found out he'd reduced himself to porn. Now Mr Flum is taking the piss a little, and even though Mark Paul has been relegated to number 4 on my infamous shag list i still *heart* him and wont have a bad word said against his loveliness.

you listening Flummy? or i'll start on Nicola....

Song Lyrics of the day

Today, as i have not done any lyrics for a while, i am going to sample the delights of Madonna. I'm going through a bit of a Madonna phase at the moment and Hollywood is my new favourite karaoke song. Not only is it superfun to sing, it also incorporates talky bits. Fortunately the superscary talkybit at the end (you know the bit i mean) is superimposed onto the track so i can slink off without having to make a twat of myself....(push the button...don't push the button...ra ra ra)

However, message to Madonna. Chick, you take things a bit too seriously. Certain lyrics in the song cause me concern.

"Music stations always play the same songs
I'm bored with the concept of right and wrong"

Now while appreciate, having to watch Gareth Gates, Delta Goodrem and S club 8's latest offerings on REPEAT on The Box can be somewhat tedious, I am a little worried that this causes Madge to question her concept of basic morality.

Explains her snogging Christina Slaguilera i suppose...

Britney i can understand...

2003-09-24T16:01:00.000+01:00

They just don't make them like they used to...

As i have been on a course today, I got home early. I witnessed the horror that has become childrens television. The presenters are ultra trendy but talk like they are "special". And not in a good way. I dont understand all the plasticy fake people, the fascination with aliens and most of all...bloody "Balamory". No wonder when i try to teach RE these days the kids would rather believe in UFO's than God (oops..me too).

This got me thinking about the programmes from my oh so distant "youth"....So kiddies of my generation, take a walk down memory lane...

do you remember...?

Hey - yey, wait a minute Mr Popjustice

Oooh Mr Popjustice, Mighty ruler of Planet...umm...Popjustice has been busy and has made us all a new message board. I insist you all visit it by clicking here. Its a bit scary, cos he has imposed many rules upon our creative freedom now, but like i say to the kids at school...If you aint playing up you've got nothing to worry about!

I want to be a moderator though. So can you all please email the lovely Mr PJ and tell him you think Planet Popjustice would be a better place if i was granted special fairie powers.

I had a dream

Now, this is a relatively unknown fact, but fairies dont dream. Not this one anyway. Until last night. And what an utterly bizarre dream I had. Where's Joseph when you need him?

"It all began when me and King of Pop went on a day trip. We were in a little fishing village like the ones in Cornwall but we were actually in Dudley(?) I think. Now the really wierd thing was that King of Pop was driving..ha ha (just kidding babe). Anyway...we were walking down these windy streets when we came down to the harbour, it was all very silent, and all the boats were sinking, really slowly and upright as if they were being pulled down. This didnt seem at all strange, and people were parking their cars in the same way, underwater. We went in a pub and had a drink then went to walk back to the car. As we did madness broke out and people were running around screaming. This woman who had got a tiny baby ran over to us and showed us her baby and it had got a furry face and she said "its the monkeys doing this!!" And sure enough we looked over to the carpark (made of cement this time) and there were about 10 massive chimpanzee's sitting there. Me and King of Pop decided we should leave and started to walk back to the car. As we did we walked past this girl who was pointing at a road sign screaming her head off and this policeman was just watching her. We got back to where the car should have been to find the water had been replaced with concrete and King of Pop's car was underneath. We panicked but not as much as you'd expect, until someone told us you had to tread on this blue button on the pavement. So I did, and the pavement lifted and MY car (more like it) rose up out of the floor. So we drove off and I woke up!"

Can anyone translate this for me? Please? click here.

Me and King of Pop went to see the Rocky Horror Show on Thursday night, at Birmingham's Alexandra Theatre. Now i was a Rocky virgin...and found the experience...umm...somewhat bemusing. Now, in true rocky "tradition" we dressed up. I was a playboy bunny girl. King of Pop, not to be out done by, well...anyone...went as Robbie Williams in his "Let me Entertain You" get up (hopefully i will post a picture soon). Funny thing is...we went in the pub after and who's drinking in there? Star of the show, Mr Robbie Williams flatmate...otherwise known as Jonathan Wilkes! Does a bit of a double take when he sees our King of Pop but very charmingly posed for a photo. We also met Curly Watts. He looked very old.

Aye CaRumba

Wednesday is my favourite day because it's Rumba day. Rumba is a funky doop bar up the Waterfront in Brierley Hill, and on a Wednesday my friend La La Laura does the Karaoke. Me and King of Pop do Robbie and Kylie, Randy does his Elton impression, Mikey growls something and Pheebs is a Superstar la Carpenter stylee. Of course we feel like we're mingling with ex D-listers when the 21st Century Girls come along too and we have a jolly good laugh at the wannabe boybanders (cough cough). Tonight is even more golly gosh exciting because a "record producer" came along last week and told us how fabulous we all were and how he'd like to hear us sing more...

hmmm. Me and King of Pop used to tell people we were the choreographers for Steps...nice to live in a dream world innit?

Song Lyrics of the day

I've decided to go for the white trailer trash that were Supersister today and their big gay anthem "Coffee". I'm spoilt for choice as to which part of the dubious (yet superfun) lyrics to go for, but after much deliberation have gone for the (almost talky) bit in the middle;

"Men like my coffee

Really turn me on

Sometimes expresso

Sometimes he’s too strong

Then there’s Costa Rican

Mellow but he’s rich

But never give me instant

'Cause baby... he’s too quick"

How controversial!! Its enough to put you off starbucks for life!

Talk-y Top 5

I *heart* pop songs with talky bits in them (especially when i hear them "sung" on Karaoke with a particular regional accent). As such, I have decided to compile my personal top 5 of all time.

1. Girls Aloud - No Good Advice.
"I don't need no beauty sleep, no need to count those dirrty sheep" No, nor me!

2. Kylie Minogue - Confide in Me.
"Stick or twist...whats mine is yours" Honest. Except for my signed Steps albums.

3. Britney Spears - Oops I Did it Again.
Too much to quote...but i agree with Britney. "Oh you shouldn't have!"

4. 21st Century Girls - Umm..21st Century Girls.
"The whole worlds gonna go craaaaazy!" Yeah. And you'll be dropped.

5. Atomic Kitten - "Whole Again"
"yow can lick oops i mean make me 'hole again." A particular Midlands classic. Sung by girls who wear clowns.

Also, any song by Liberty X, cos they have to give Michelle something to growl bless her. This is, of course, something that is never going to feature on any future release by Mr Gareth Gates. I'd make the joke but they've all been heard before.

Coming soon....Songs with noises in them. So far i have two.

Song Lyrics of the day

Today's lyrics come coutesy of the bitchiest girls in pop...the sugababes (awww poor heidi).

"Im virgin (virgin) sexy...if you want me, just text me. Cos I'm having...a chemical reaction...c'mon bayaybay"

well firstly..virgin?! yeah right. Thats "virgin" on the ridiculous...(see what i did there?!). Secondly, this song so couldn't have existed in the early 1990's. I feel this song typifies the youth generation who rely on text messages to conduct their flirting and other such mating rituals. Today I don't like texts. Or people that dont send them when they said they would.

grrr.

Help! (i need somebody)

I want to put pictures on my blog but i don't know how. Would somebody pretty please email me with some basic instructions and in return i will tell your fortune. Fairies can do that you know.

Lisa Scott-fucking-Lee

I have found life difficult since Steps split up. Truly. I hated H & Claire with a passion i didnt think could be exceeded. Until now. Lisa was always my favourite. I even named my first car after her and copied all of her hair do's (even the black and blue..sigh). I liked Lately, but had issues with that thing on her face that she might call a nose. But Too Far Gone??? not far gone enough if you ask me. Bloody rubbish. From her ankles to her bum to her wonky nose.

Will she never learn we loved her for being Lisa? We don't need a Kylie wannabe, especially such a poor one.

Faye, come back. Please. Even if you do sing "If you believe". Again.

I *heart* Birmingham, I do

Today I went to the Bull Ring, which is apparently Europe's new shopping capital. It was very Superfun but also a bit wierd. Both myself and Pheebs commented how we felt like we had been transported to another place entirely. It was Birmingham, but not as we knew it. Oh, and we saw Cilla Black.

Song Lyrics of the day

I don't actually know the name of this song but some bird sang it on the Karaoke the other day.

"...and I was dancing in stilettos in the snow..."

Whilst I accept that this might appear to be a highly romantic and frivolous thing to do, I really do need to point out how highly impractical it is, not to mention the health and safety risks. I wouldn't recommend it.

Some recording artistes are so irresponsible.

I always knew he was shady

Today i DON'T like Gareth Gates. As reported on the wonder that is popjustice the snivelling little stuttering weasel has included the following in his "thank you" section of his new album (some bloody thank you!);

"Feeling Yellow - you're not the only one who can write songs... If that's what you call them!"

OOOHHH!!! check you! Nasty little twat. How many covers can you sing? let me count the ways....

i still reckon he was putting on that stuttering.

Song Lyrics of the day

Today's lyrics come from Mr Robert Peter Williams. And kinda some up my mood....oh how i wish i had a long attention span.

"You say we're fatally flawed, well I'm easily bored...is that ok?

i dont care what anybody says. Apathy is an illness.

2003-09-11T11:42:00.000+01:00

Better to have had fame...?

Well g'day pop pickers. Today i feel sorry for the ex members of 21st Century Girls. On an almost weekly basis now, i see the lovely Fiona and Leanne belt out karaoke classics at a bar in the west midlands...sometimes (if we're really lucky, and they're really drunk)..they even belt out their Top 5 hit (inc. the dodgy talky bit in the middle). How tragic it must be to hit late teens and be resigned to a failed pop career singing your own song on the karaoke. And how even more tragic I really have to fight the urge to put the song in first so i can sing it myself. Or to get them to sign my promo of the single I paid 26p for on Ebay. Oh dear.

MY little bit of cyberspace...

ok, hello hello and welcome to my "fairie random thoughts". Hello to my friends, Hello to Pop Justice pals, and hello to you the random weary wanderer who has popped in to say...well...hello. So what are my intentions I hear you ask? and more importantly...are they honorable?...well... I dont know. All i know, all my buddies seem to have a blog these days and i want one too! One has to be seen to be a dedicated follower of fashion if we are to keep up with the mis-teeq ladeez... (we're coming on strong)

Anyway...let the musing begin.
