I see John is having a Kinks poll, all on his own.

[The Subhuman]

I've a feeling the Band Maid is going to go down badly. Not helped by the strange juxtaposition of the song it's up against. ..Bit of a triple whammy against them I guess, they're Metal, Girls, and it's sung in Japanese..

I love it, they put most male metal bands to shame, Misa's bass work and Arkane on drums is a bit special..Check out the live version of Play
