Highland Capital Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 Bathgate is closer to Edinburgh. "A town outside Edinburgh" would be at least a bit more accurate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 The Transmt entrance summed him up, mass hysteria, crowd going daft, fireworks going off and he comes on to sing a teary ballad. He has a decent sense of humor and suffers badly from anxiety which came across in his Brit awards and Graham Norton interview. I think he is reasonably funny but his music is a dirge. It annoys me when there are patronizing clips of Capaldi and James McAvoy explaining Scottish slang or slice/square sausage in a wha's like us kind of way but I've just seen one with Russell Crowe so the worlds fucked 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Golden God Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 I don't think I've ever seen one of his apparently amazing/hilarious/top class/incredible/whatever patter videos but I've decided based on those I know who like them that they aren't funny at all. He is also incredibly ugly and his face repulses me, I fucking despise him. It's probably (definitely) very harsh especially considering I am also very ugly and repulsive but I don't care. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PauloPerth Posted July 2, 2020 Share Posted July 2, 2020 He is the male version of Adele. In a way she found a massive market in targeting fat lassies who'd been dumped at some point in their life, he has taken that market on and added other demographics to it. He has cleverly avoided being labelled as the same type of cheese monster by portraying this happy go lucky, bit of a lad persona that gives him appeal to a wider market. A one off huge ballad hit is fair enough if you mix it with other types of songs. But he's now a factory for churning out audible sewage. Sheeran is similar, though I suppose he does try to mix it up. Even though I wish he wouldn't, as listening to him attempt to rap is painfully cringeworthy. I don't think I could say I hate either Capaldi or Sheeran though, just think that despite obviously having some talent, the pair of them just churn out bland dross. It sells though I suppose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jamamafegan Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The people I hate more are Glaswegians who worship the ground that Capaldi and Cinnamon walk on because “they’re pure dead brilliant” and they’re “pure down to earth but.” f**k off. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Gerry Cinnamon still has to prove his worth, he’s yet to make an appearance on the Jools Holland show and I personally set this as the benchmark for any band/singer to improve their status. As far as I’m aware, he is yet to appear on TV doing a live performance other than on “STV 2.” I am happy to be proved wrong. The lack of live acoustic sets by him is shocking, a quick search on YouTube reveals he hasn’t done any sets for Radio shows, such as the Radio 1 live lounge or Radio X etc. Given that his songs are now regularly played on those stations and others, and that he’s quite popular down south, I refuse to believe nobody in the music world is asking him “hey, Gerry - fancy doing a live recorded acoustic set for us?”Questions have to be asked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems an ok lad though. Working backstage at bella last year, he was surprisingly down to earth and very funny. Serious tho, he seemed ok. His "entourage" were having a kick about, the ball came over, one of the boys toe punted it back- right into their table, drinks everywhere, wet legs the works. He was pishing himself at it. Never heard a crowd noise like that backstage, ever. Just a wall of screaming, young lassies 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Melanius Mullarkey Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 The day Gerry Cinammon appears on Jools Holland is the day I hunt down Jools Holland and force feed him frozen pizzas with a mango topping until the little cockney Ivory tinkler bursts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m presuming from the nick of him his music is terrible. This is pretty much how I find it, don’t think any ones music is unavoidable as it once was with all the variety you now have to listen to and who you can follow on social media. I have been unaware of anything Capaldi has done since the Noel Gallagher feud. Noel Gallagher is an arsehole as well, he has been taking unprovoked swipes at other artists since the 90’s with Blur then I remember comments about Muse, Franz Ferdinand and then he put a wager on with Jo Whiley in 2005 that the Arctic Monkeys would never win a Brit award and he never rated them. He clearly can’t be happy for anyone else to threaten reaching the level of fame Oasis got in 1995. He’s also a Tory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 People may or may not like his songs, but it’s undeniable that the boy is a good singer. By all accounts he’s making the most of his fame with the ladies also, something he certainly couldn’t rely on his looks for. Fair play to him, he’ll be monumentally rich and riding everything that walks.(For the record, I’m extremely jealous) 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was a similarly ubiquitous pain in the arse Peter Crouch who when once asked in an interview “If you hadn’t become a professional footballer, what do you think you would have been?” Replied “A virgin” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Curiosity got the better of me so I hopped on YouTube and entered Lewis Capaldi (insert Kenneth here). Fucking hell. Sounds and looks like Cicero after they’d been locked in a chippy for a decade. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
