Sounds like the sort of thing that will win the Mercury prize, coffee table music for dinner parties. Yawn. Give me music you can play outside at BBQs, that makes people ask what the fuck is that as they tuck into a big sausage bap. |

"I saw her when she was just starting out. She was brilliant back then - genuinely moving and got a rapturous reception.
Personally, I prefer her when there’s no music."
I agree. |

"Very talented lady and ever so modest. Saw her last Friday at a festival. "
She was very gruff when I saw her in an arts centre once and said how wonderful that gig was mind!
I don’t hold it against her - probably gets a bit annoying having folks like me waffling at you  |

"Wow that was dismal
You either get it or you don’t. "
I've only had one listen of the new track but found it dull and lacking the cutting edge of her earlier stuff.
Mike Skinner got it about right. Get in, make some noise and then get out and do something different. |

I thought he was just reading stuff of the back of a CornFlake’s packet or something, then gets hailed a genius. |

OPM is one of the great debut albums.
Besides, Brum is short of musical heroes so we have to claim our geniuses where we can. |

She’s incredible. I saw her about 5 years ago at Festival Number 6 in Wales and she blew my mind! I was on the brink of tears at how powerful her performance was! |

There were people in tears when I saw her too. John Cooper Clarke was in the audience and whooping loudly at various points in most poems. |

I was talking about The Streets, I’ve still got my finger on the pulse, I’m currently listening to this new band called *checks notes* The Oasis. |

"Ah I’m a huge fan of Kate. I was lucky to see her perform a few years ago and would love to see her perform her new work. She’s fantastic. "
She's playing the Blue Dot Festival in July at the Jodrell Bank Discovery Centre. |
