Thank you BloomsButtons - I’ve been looking for that as it’s stuck in my head. I like it! Very Jake Shears

So far Sam Smith seems to be the most disliked musician, though Coldplay and Adele are getting a fair few mentions (I like Adele Blush but also loathe all Coldplay's songs except one).

Oh and Ed Sheeran being banned would please a lot of people it seems (I wouldn't complain!)

"Minnie Riperton

Aggressive breast cancer meant that Minnie was known mostly for Loving You. She died within five years of it being released.

But she did leave us with her daughter, Maya Rudolph.

I don't listen to the radio, but I hate Sam Smith.

Very sad Birds, but the song is still nails down a chalkboard
