Mawkish music

prole-art-threat [Edit] [Delete] 21:42, 23 January '07

I say is one of the best 'forms' of music, so long as its not too contrived- I mean, 'Without You', by Nilsson is 3456 times better than 'Without Me' by Eminem when one feels like they've just spent 3 hours locked in a room with Arthur Fowler's darkest moments. I mean, come on, even John Peel got mawkish over soppy songs, and he gave us the white stupidface stripes for crying out loud.

What's your 'mawkish' song, and 'Not Even Jail' by Interpol or any double tracked-vocal nonsense from elliot smith ok?
