"Fast Car" is the song with the most cautious, timid, insipid cover versions ever - and there seem to be millions of them - none of which justifies its own existence in any way. Not a single one is necessary, none are an improvement on the flawless original, which is perfect.

You're going to come at that song, you'd better not miss. Why should we listen to your voice rather than Tracy's, why should we hear your hands play the same chords on an acoustic guitar, in what way should this stand alongside Chapman's original as a justified work of art?

Journalists! It is not “balance” to include a quote from Farage, Rees-Mogg or Hartley-Brewer in your news article. Chefs don’t purposely include terrible recipes in their books “for balance”. The Highway Code isn’t 50% devoted to appalling, dangerous driving advice “for balance”.

Still can't believe Running Up That Hill, Cloudbusting and Hounds of Love are on the same LP. Imagine the giddy glee of firing up the Fairlight CMI, the LinnDrum, the balalaika, to tear the universe wide open. For me, God is the spine-shiver as the body receives such holy music.

It is not "centrist" to prioritise stopping Brexit. Almost every leftwing concern – including saving the NHS, reducing foodbank use, protecting workers, retaining the Human Rights Act and other Labour manifesto pledges – would be massively endangered if we crash out of EU.

Windowlicker is by some degree the greatest track Richard D James has ever released. Every aspect of it - the production, the chord progression, the song's "chapters" as its musical yarn unfurls - are almost hysterically better than anything else he has made.

Something I think about a lot is why don't million-selling artists like Bieber and Sheeran sneak just one ludicrously avant-garde, almost unlistenable, Nancarrow-esque track on to their albums? They would still sell bucketloads but also gain about 20 weirdo music fans like me.
