Would disagree with Travis, The Man Who

is an excellent album.
Toploader laughably bad though....
For modern era acts that are inexplicably popular, Ed Sheeran must surely be top of any list? Beige music for people who don’t really like music particularly.
Also Pink....what is the point of that human being?
