NME:
Franz Ferdinand frontman Alex Kapranos has called the end of UK music Top Of The Pops' a "shame" - but he thinks it'll be back.

Kapranos told NME.COM: "It's a shame it's going. When you see anything that's been part of you life since you were a kid disappear then you feel a wee bit sad. I think people listen to music in a different way now than they did a few years ago, so maybe 'Top Of The Pops' hasn't kept up in the way it could have done. But I'm sad to see it go."

He added: "It was an important part of growing up. You'd run to see it on Thursday nights. You'd watch it for the bands that you love and the bands that you hated as well. I remember seeing The Specials doing 'Ghost Town' and that was amazing. But then you'd sit at the screen and slag off the bands you hated as well, and there'd be some idiots in the audience that couldn't dance as well."

"But I think it'll be back, definitely."

And what utter utter tosh it was....turned it off...too many silly women, I mean, what have women got to do with music??

I decree today that all women in music should be banned instantly.

There is no place for them, wailing, dancing, banal, using their looks as opposed to talent, what an utter disgrace.

Keep Music Free of Women.

Carpet Ban - Now.

Must...agree. Must...agree...(althought I dont want to and I wish I wouldnt have to.)

There was never a female singer in history I truly liked. Their voices are just too shrieking for my ears. (well...except Nico & Patty of course)

So long as we can have Anne-Marie and Mo Tucker.

Though I think your motion may get some opposition from Scotty.
