Chris T-T

Eminem Is Gay

Label: Snowstorm Release Date: 10/02/2003

domgourlay by Dom Gourlay February 2nd, 2003

If past history is anything to go by, comedy and music should NOT be mixed, EVER.

We've had Hale & Pace with 'The Stonk', Mr* fucking *Blobby and Vic Reeves destroying the Wonder Stuff's hard-earned credibility in little over 3 minutes (other way round, surely? - Ed). Too right my head was spinning - towards the door marked "exit". And fast.

CHRIS T-T on the other hand is the icon of irony. Granted he may not possess the sincere charm of Half Man Half Biscuit but after a few listens you want to believe that maybe old Marshall M. and Stan were having an affair after all. (?)

The highlight of this single though is provided by the second track, 'The Headcold Bit Of The Winter', which if you haven't guessed already, takes its pint-sized urine sample from Queens Of The Stone Age's underachieving flop of a single from the summer of 2001.

"Lucozade, Benolyn, Nurofen, Lemsip, Anadin, Hot Milk...N-N-N-Night Nurse!" spits our Mr T-T, and all of a sudden, the musical crimes of Russ Abbot and Benny Hill are forgiven.
