Tonight I couldn't get "Strange Things Happen" out of my head... generally it is "Fourteenth of February" from William Bloke...

And I find it impossible to sing his songs to myself without putting on a little caricature of his voice... It always sounds like I'm taking the piss, but I'm really not. There's something definitively Billy about his voice, and his intonation makes the songs so much more than they would be read out of a songbook by some PopIdol entrant. N!

I also believe that Billy lowered himself when he collabrated with them. They're a bunch of over-rated hacks. With a catalogue like his, he really has no reason to stoop to that level.
