Mr Otway has shown the charts to be what they are.  Bent. Respect to the
man.

Subject: [total-madness] If John Otway can...(part 2)



Look at the important similarities here:

* both are "older" artistes in the grand scheme of things.
* both have little or no backing by the record companies they are with.
* both have a pretty substantial silent fan base, most of which are on
the internet.

Now look at the equally important differences:

* Madness have had over 23 Top 10 hits throughout the last 20+ years,
Otway has had 22 FLOPS in the same time (circa). One song stormed in at
187 and never improved!!!!
* Otway didn't write the song he released. Madness are an original act.
* Otway got together with his fans and pulled this off with no outside
help. We have been unable to get our acts together.
* Otway is crap. Madness are a "much-loved institution".


Regards,

Mr.G
