But Keira, though your love for the band and its music is admirable, we can
do without this gushing,
lovey-dovey "Oh, Jay Kay is so foine" *teeny-bopper* admiration for
Jamiroquai. If you find him attractive, I have no problem with that; I mean
a lot of us guys find N'dea Davenport attractive, but we don't go around
worshipping her, taking on various email addresses, adopting her last name
or whatnot. You can deny all that, but it shows -- you're defending Jay
Kay's every action like an infatuated girlfriend.
I don't mind of acid jazz goes commercial, mainstream, whatever. And I'll
be the second person cheering in the streets if a Jamiroquai single hits
the US top 10 (I know you'll be the first...). I *want* acid jazz to be
listened to and liked by as many people as possible, and I'm totally
against this selfish "Oh, we MUST be underground" snobbery. But I am also
*totally* against acid-jazz groups being admired for their looks more than
their music.
I thought acid-jazz music was above all that.
I apologize if I attacked you personally in any way, but this gushing
admirer thing personally annoys not only me, but several other people on
the list. Someone just had to say it.
There, I said it, and please put your trousers back on.
