Joan Hickson is from Colchester?

I like Miss Marple now. But more importantly, may I avert your attention to these funny quotes from NME over the past year:

"I'm nobody's fucking boss. I don't have a fucking boss so I wouldn't want to be one of them... Everyone can kiss my fucking ass. I used to have a boss... You know what that guy does now? He fixes the fence on my farm." (Caleb Followill, Kings Of Leon)

On The Drums: "When I see bands like The Drums being fawned over, it makes me feel ill. There is literally no soul in that band." (Nicky Wire, Manic Street Preachers) - this is my personal favourite.

On sexual fantasies: "I had this dream once, but my cat woke me up before I fucked Kurt Cobain." (Akiko Matsuura, The Big Pink/ Comanechi)

On wealth: "I'm rich enough now to have you killed." (MIA)

On drugs: "I saw a winged lizard ascending a spiral staircase. At the top of which was a glowing white orb... the orb was God." (Jamie Reynolds, Klaxons)

On bad habits: "I've got a scab on my stomach which I've been picking bits off and eating occasionally." (Yannis Philippakis, Foals)

On unusual pets: "My bearded dragon is not a sexy pet. It's got salmonella in its shit... He's cool though, very punk." (Plan B)

On politics: "The Tories? I'd just set fire to the fuckers. I mean, they're just horrible, aren't they?! I would actually set fire to them. Every single one of them, one by one." (Tom Meighan, Kasabian)

On sex: "This record is not coming-of-age, it's just cumming... it's got a lot of cock in it." (Will Rees, Mystery Jets)

See how intellectual and cultured the pioneers of music are?
