What surprises me is that guitar bands still rule the earth, or at least
that's the way it seems when all the end of year polls come through. Not
that I particularly mind, but there was a time when vaguely radical records
were awarded record of the year, things like Public Enemy. So support of
structure and narrative seems to me to be a vote for the Staus Quo, rather
than
any kind of offensive move.

There, that's my contribution. No lemurs and only one very poor joke.
