Wonderfully bad. Now find Mrs Miller on the web and listen to some of her attempts at singing.

If you can and want a laugh, check out the two following bad cover versions. Ricky Kitty & The Claws with "Bohemian Rhapsody" Senor Coconut with "Smoke On The Water". Both are utter b*****ks.

These are still on the statute book here in the UK
It is illegal to die in the Houses of Parliament
It could be regarded an act of treason to place a postage stamp bearing the British king or queen's image upside-down
Eating mince pies on Christmas Day is banned
In the UK, a pregnant woman can legally relieve herself anywhere she wants
The head of any dead whale found on the British coast automatically becomes the property of the King, and the tail of the Queen
It is illegal not to tell the tax man anything you do not want him to know, but legal not to tell him information you do not mind him knowing
It is illegal to enter the Houses of Parliament wearing a suit of armour
In Lancashire, no person is permitted after being asked to stop by a constable on the seashore to incite a dog to bark.
In England, all men over the age of 14 must carry out two hours of longbow practice a day.
In London, Freemen are allowed to take a flock of sheep across London Bridge without being charged a toll; they are also allowed to drive geese down Cheapside.
A man who feels compelled to urinate in public can do so only if he aims for his rear wheel and keeps his right hand on his vehicle.
In Chester, Welshmen are banned from entering the city before sunrise and from staying after sunset.
In the city of York, it is legal to murder a Scotsman within the ancient city walls, but only if he is carrying a bow and arrow.
In London, it is illegal to flag down a taxi if you have the plague.
Any more anyone?

This is utter b******s as well from Senor Coconut. I totally 100% absolutely agree with you I had to stop it but I will probably go back to see/hear it again just for confirmation Ps Why don't they have a smiley with his hands over his ears?

No thread with dodgy music can be complete without an 80's synth pop band with dodgy shoulder pads and a Micheal Bolton wannabe singer. Can you imagine someone from Tull playing in a band like this

This is definately under the "this is serious..." There are many things I like about living in rural N Ireland however there are many things I definately don't like! this is the most recent under the negative aspect..... www.impartialreporter.com/articles/1/36572It's not tongue-in-cheek ! I sometimes wonder not only what planet I'm on but in what century I'm with you, sister! I think it could happen anywhere. Our local independent paper had a "best of Louisville" this fall and one of the categories was "best TV reporter cleavage." There was not, of course, any kind of equivalent category for male reporters.

I just got back from Colorado where I read in the paper about a politician who voted that HIV tests should not be given to single pregnant women in hopes that the baby actually be born with AIDS and eventually make the mother feel guilty and thus teach her that there are negative consequences for irresponsible sexual behavior.....no, really.

And you thought Tull fans were obsesive A copy of the first comic to feature caped hero Superman has been sold on the internet for $1m (£646,000). The 1938 edition of Action Comics No 1 - which originally sold for 10c - was sold by a private seller to a private buyer, neither of whom was named. Stephen Fishler, co-owner of the US auction website Comic Connect, said it was "the Holy Grail of comic books". The sale smashes the previous record price for a comic book of $317,200 (£205,000) in 2009. That was also a copy of Action Comics No 1, but in poorer condition. Mr Fishler said the transaction happened minutes after the issue was put on sale at around 1030 local time (1530 GMT) on Monday. He said that the seller was a "well-known individual" in New York with a pedigree collection, and that the buyer was a known customer who had previously bought an Action Comics No 1. 'A milestone' "The opportunity to buy an un-restored, high-grade Action One comes along once every two decades. It's certainly a milestone," said Mr Fishler. He added: "It is still a little stunning to see a comic book and $1m in the same sentence." About 100 copies of Action Comics No 1 remain in existence and only two of those have a grading of 8.0 - very fine - including the one sold on Monday. The previous record-holder had a grading of 6.0. The cover of the rare issue pictures Superman lifting a car over his head news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8529504.stm
