@ gabic: I think he's just talking about his kitchen - or another little room, he mades a "pub" of. Good question, how he knows about the old fans and the old stuff... maybe he really visits the fansites - who knows  |

Did you cop the rude joke towards the end, with reference meant to be about one of "Sir" JK's hats that the interviewer turned around and added a cymbal bash. I didn't thind it was that funny, and "Sir" JK didn't laugh too heartily about it either.
Oh, how I wish I could be in sunny Sunderland !!!
Are you going sunny_funk ??? |

i hate to hear too young to die with those crappy backing vocals... in the part Jay say "dooroodoodooo lalaloolalaloooo daran... dooroodoodooo lalaloolalaloooo" i hate when those girls sing it too... sounds shitty....

I wonder how Jay knows that most of his old fans want him to go back to the old Jamiroquai style !
Maybe he sometimes is visiting the fan sites ??

~ The whole "using technology more than we've done before" bit is kind of discomforting, but I guess thats the way music is heading these days...
~I'm happy that I'm going to hear TYTD on tour though, last time I seen them there were no EOPE songs on the setlist.
~I like that he realises that some fans want him go back to the sound of their earlier stuff, even if he doesn't want to himself!
~And looking at the size of Jay's house and the nature of his lifestyle, it wouldn't surprise me that he at least had a pub room in there somewhere

As we would say in Arabic, the DJ has heavy blood - it's not a compliment. He's a bit predictable, but there could be worse I suppose.
The joke is about his choice of hats. The DJ enquires and "Sir" JK responds saying that he has a 'long black spikey one'.
"Sir" JK is referring to his hat, but the DJ says something like 'yeah I know that, but what about your hat ?'. Insinuating that the referrance is phallic and not about millinery.
"Sir" JK's response is not immediate or jolly either.
The bit that is awkward for me is the beginning, "Sir" JK seems to have rehearsed well the lines about the Oxford Circus Conclave. Jokes about religion and race should be avoided at all costs for the sake of image preservation.
It's a redundancy because Oxford Circus is a traffic junction and not an actual landmark building being therefore to a certain degree abstract, so how could smoke come out of the top of it ???
But it made for some nice banter. And I liked "Sir" JK's joke about the London Marathon, very current !!!
BTW, my father finished his 25th consecutive London Marathon ten minutes faster than he did last year - he is 72 years old !!! He has been running marathons since he was 20 years old, but now the London Marathon is the only one he does.
:-)))) There, I have something magnificent to smile about in 25-iplicate !!! |
