Serious rock types might like this article on Marc Bolan:

^ They might (thanks for the link), provided you give them a "poser" warning - the article contains a dangerous - and potentially vomit-inducing - link to Nick Cave covering "Cosmic Dancer". Seriously, who let that happen and why hasn't it been banned under the non-proliferation treaties?

In case anyone accidentally clicked that link within the article and has bleeding ears (is there any chance Cave could accidentally hit any of the correct notes with what passes for a voice??? - I've given up all hope he will ever reach second-grade standard with his disturbingly poor piano), here's the antidote - 2 original "Cosmic Dancers" a "Mambo Sun" and a full-length "Get It On (Bang A Gong)" (generic brand substitution not permitted):

This song got mentioned on MMM this morning. They played a 10 second grab and I was singing it on my morning walk, memories came back. One of my Dad's favourite songs.

Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Bruce is wrong, Pies4shaw is right. Listen to Cave, or as much of it as you can manage. Then listen to the first 10 seconds of the original. No need to hear any more.

Next question please.
