What's wrong with being a reality pop snob? They know the game. If you want credibility, don't play the scumbag cowell game. Tony DeStroi

I love the insurance ad where Ringo Starr puts his fame down to changing his name, and not those hangers-on John, Paul and George. Vince McRaincoat

How amazing is Noisettes' new single? Two weeks in, and we already have one of the singles of the year. Hannelore

Mockstar

Mama Goth Ziners, help us! Who won Tommy Lee's Rockstar on Tuesday? Please tell me it was Diana; she was fantastic! Magni was s*xy, though.

OK, it was Diana. Just don't ever check that, or you'll be disappointed.

Shango Jones Coffee... what would I do without it? It gives me my burst of energy, as well as sending me hypo!

Never touch the stuff. More of a tea fan myself.

Jewels remaining gleaming

Klim Detaropave, let the deluded fools fly their banner. It must soothe them to see them flap, in the beautiful British weather. People can fly English flags all year round; this is England, after all.

"Beautiful British weather"?

To answer Brian, I did indeed get a Go-Betweens album for Christmas, 16 Lovers Lane. Very good it is too. But, unlike Brian, I'm intrigued at the ide of a Lemonheads covers album. Their version of Whitney Houston's How Will I Know is brilliant, and their Mrs Robinson and Luka aren't too shabby either.

An album of original material would be preferable, though. Their self-titled album a couple of years ago rocked with their best. The Doc

You're nicked

Naff Naff Bob Face, that is a shaggy dog story. Don't mess with anteaters, it's official. Those who do play funny tunes on penny whistles and buy Scissor Sisters albums.

The Anteater

What you going to do- lick him with your unfeasibly long tongue?

As a new Voider, I'm disappointed in some people's attitudes to reality pop contestants. The X Factor is an entertainment show which leeches off controversy and debates among true music fans over its viability. Stop feeding the animals!

Also, after Jude's view that Roisin Murphy and Annie should form a supergroup of underrated pop stars, who else would deserve a place? Maybe Yazz could make a comeback. Uncle Guj

Kitty quandary

So, WLW, if this is your real age, I have a riddle for you. Three cats go inside a pub. One is wearing fishnets, one is wearing a pretty pink bow and the other is completely naked (except for fur- fearless cats are nor pretty). Which of the three is most likely to make it to the top of Everest first? Answer will be revealed next week!

One Winged Angel

My money's on the fishnets. They sound up for anything.

Everyone has overlooked what the best album of 2008 was: Perfectly Clear by Jewel. One word: exquisite. Cuchulainn

Anyone who can't hear Bon Iver's lyrics on his For Emma, Forever Ago should hear him play at one of his concerts. You will hear every word sung, every chord played and every pin drop. As the crowd are silenced in awe, you will hear every goosebump run down your back and every tear run down your cheek. Awesome. Ollie Holtam

Rubbish

I am so glad that The Anteater has recovered. As for Blossom Black Shadow, obviously they don't twig my raison d'etre and they are now crossed off my list of tree huggers forever, whoever they are. Now who will help remove this annoying plastic bag from my crown? I think you could reach, WLW.

I doubt DJ Gordy is familiar with Diane Warren's work, else he wouldn't have chosen the Star Trek Enterprise theme as a lame example. She also wrote Unbreak My Heart, How Do I Live, Because You Loved Me and I Don't Want To Miss A Thing.

Yes, they're all MOR, but Eurovision isn't about credibility. If we want a song with universal appeal that will hopefully win the judges over, I think Lloyd Webber has made the right choice. ID

We "heart" Scotland

Apparently the entire Scottish psyche is summed up in one food: Scotch egg. "Let's take an egg and wrap it in meat. Aye!"

So I've heard, anyway...

Haryuu No Hanekata

The nation behind the deep fried Mars is OK by me. Then again, they also looked at a sheep's stomach and thought: "Let's stuff it with organs and eat it".

I'm staggered that The Fratellis' Here We Stand was overlooked in all the end-of-year charts, especially PS. Also, does it seem there are no exciting albums due this year? I can only hope for a new Michael Jackson album. Again. Ralph Wiggum

Daddypoos Why does a dog get mad when you blow in its face, but sticks its head out of the window when you take it for a car ride? How would you like it?

Try brushing your teeth first.

Tantra Who else loves the new Li'l' Chris single? He's SO cute!

I had to check with Mabel. She'd never heard of him, unsurprisingly.

Penn: These don't count as posts

Penn: I'm wasting valuable material

Rayanne Graff: ... in the pants department.

Rayanne Graff: Also, the fiancé sometimes calls my father The Big Cheese.

Rayanne Graff: i hope this doesn't mean that Baz is my father.

Penn: Do you want to apply or will I? http://www.itv.com/lifestyle/jeremykyle/beaguest/

Penn: Wait, I have better material now...

Penn: I'll be The Big Cheese

Penn: The Head Honcho

Penn: Head Cheese

Rayanne Graff: No, i don't want to apply.

Rayanne Graff: i was in a bad war film once so i don't need to be in a bad programme. Or summat.

Rayanne Graff: Oh, and i think Head Cheese sounds like some sort of d*ck infection.

Penn: Err... Head cheese is a terrine or meat jelly made with flesh from the head of a calf or pig (sometimes a sheep or cow), and often set in aspic.

Penn: You have such a filthy mind....

Rayanne Graff: Says the man who once had Butt Penis as his screen name.

Rayanne Graff: i never heard of head cheese before, anyroad but that's probably because i'm vegetarian.

Penn: Butt Penis.... Haha... Good times....

Rayanne Graff: What a disturbing sentence.
