    Jarvis Cocker seems to be considering some sort of a comeback. He's over on myspace with a new song called "Running the World". Head on over there and have a quick listen. I must say I do like it.

    Here's a quick quote from himself about it
    It's exactly 1 year since that Live-8 thing & it was the night of that event that I wrote this song. I apologise for all the swearing but sometimes that's the only thing that seems appropriate.
    It's in no way a criticism of Geldof & co. but I remember thinking at the time: "Where does engaging with these politicians/businessmen really get you?" - ( 12 months on & the ***** still haven't paid up as far as I can make out) - maybe the problem is something more ..... fundamental.

    I'd post some lyrics but the censor would have a field day.

    So what do ye reckon? Can't imagine it getting much radio play.
