Knowing the NME these days, it will be about three lines long and a load of irrelevant bollox. But I'll check it out anyway, cheers for the tip.
Good evening PASADENA!!!!!!!!!

Just read this in Sainsburys. Chris is indeed in jovial mood, it made me laugh! Sometimes I think he's had a personality transplant since the eighties when he was always moody to the press.

:D He wasn´t that moody in the 80s. He smiled even more than Neil in those early pics.

I just remembered a line from the interview. They ask Chris if he likes James Blunt, and he says he prefers Crazy Frog. :D

Is it the page "Peter Robinson Versus" in which Robinson asks "funny and irreverent" questions from some popstar in a Q&A format?

Well, he's always had a sense of humour, but there's no doubt that he used to portray himself as more moody than now. I still remember the tv interview in which he sat side on to the camera scowling whilst Neil fielded the questions. Then the interviewer asked if they had any regrets from their career, and Neil turned to Chris, who said: "Almost every interview we've ever done"! Classic.

It was an interview on BBC2's The Late Show, which was actually very good, but Chris just sat there, being his loveable moody and sullen self. The piece ended with the interviewer asking them " What is it you've done in your career as PSB so far, that you felt the most cheapened by, that you've felt the most unhappy about, " to which Chris delivered his moody sullen response. It's hysterical!
" ...but what i do like, i love passionately.."

Do you think he's being ironic when he says that they scrapped the album and started again when they'd heard the latest Coldplay record, as not one of their songs matched the Coldplay tracks?
