I Bet That Ewe Look Good on the Dance Floor-The Artic Monkeys

Comic title: I Bet That Ewe (You) Look Good on the Dance Floor-The Artic Monkeys

It’s a play on words, do you see? This week the Artic Monkeys became the latest British band to “break America”, according to the British press at least. James Blunt is also alleged to have “cracked” the USA, and as far as I’m concerned they can have him. For an artist that everyone seems to hate Mr Blunt sure has done well for himself.

I’m not sure if these people have actually made a success in the United States, maybe any Americans who read this can tell me. Although I’m not a Blunt fan I have nothing against the Artic Monkeys. I haven’t heard their album but what I hear on the radio is good enough. There was some talk in the press that they “couldn’t have” written their own lyrics because they are from the North of England and the lyrics contain too many cultural references! Obviously they can’t read in the North.
