Weren't UB40 once a credible band? ...the Snow Patrol of the 80s?

Now, I really like Darren Hayman but what in God's name does he think he's doing here? It's like the very worst karaoke. A dire version of Red Red Wine: http://vimeo.com/106267268 |

Perhaps his latest idea is to sing about whatever thing he's just consumed in vast quantities |

That is pretty pitiful, but I would have thought Hayman doing a Neil Diamond cover was well inside of his comfort zone. |

It was a 'one off' fundraiser for the dogs home thing, I think. |

I know he loves pooches and most of his recent art has included dogs but there still has to be some quality control, surely? I mean that really is terrible. It's like me saying sponsor me, I'm going to walk up 3 flights of stairs. |

I'd need clarification as to whether or not you'll be sticking to one step per stair or taking bigger steps and covering 2 or 3 in one go before I can commit I'm afraid. Also, will you be doing them all in one go or spacing it out over the course of a few weeks? |

I'll require clarification that your Stanna stair-lift has been disabled before I'm committing any sponsorship. |

I'm with Bovey - shocking. Couldn't even last a minute before making it stop. I could do better and that really is saying something. |

Don't think you'd get many bands getting in the top ten with a song like One In Ten these days. Even the first Labour Of Love was a decent and relevant album when it came out - bringing some classic reggae hits to wider attention. Most of what happened after was horrid though. |
