    I've seen that clip before. It is amusing to see the patronising, condescending attitudes of people who have no connection to the music or the people listening to it. Especially the pompous Yank woman. Also interesting to contrast how middle aged they appear to be, despite being fairly young, compared to people of their age nowadays.
    I wish they had kept the one with the Stones on. The one where Jagger said after they played an Elvis record "Why is he still making records? He is nearly 30 now. Singing rock and roll at that age is obscene".

    Why would it be wrong to put "it's" ? Is it just down to how it would be said?

    Is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?

    English can be weird. It can be understood through tough thorough thought though.

    What is a word made up of 4 letters, yet is also made up of 3. Sometimes is written with 9 letters, and then with 4. Rarely consists of 6, and never is written with 5.
