File this under 'Surely this is a joke?' The new poem from the Poet Laureate celebrating (natch) the England rugby world cup victory, and more specifically Jonny Wilkinson:

A Song for Jonny

O Jonny the power of your boot
And the accurate heart-stopping route
Of your goal as it ghosts
Through Australian posts
Is a triumph we gladly salute.

Seemingly he couldn't think of a rhyme for 'Wilkinson' for which we can only say 'Thank God'.

Ha ha ha ha:

"THE singer Billy Bragg is to be investigated by police for allegedly “inciting violence” by saying he was in favour of “duffing up” supporters of the far-right British National Party."
The original Guardian article with his 'incitement' to violence:
Bragg is not worried [about the BNP getting seats in a proportional upper House]. "It would shine a torch into the dirty little corner where the BNP defecate on our democracy, and that would be much more powerful than duffing them up in the street - which I'm also in favour of."

Covers of early rock 'n' roll singles:

"In the early days of rock 'n' roll, the term referred mainly to the "whiter" cover versions of black R&B hits, and because they had more access to radio airplay, most cover versions outsold the original recordings."
Now I'm gonna have to look for A Rockin' Good Way by Brook Benton & Dinah Washington, and the cover by Shakin' Stevens & Bonnie Tyler!
