    Mad song, if they had gone down that road they might have been the original Pink Floyd.

    Also, Death in Vegas ft Liam Gallagher ripped off that song

    Rick Parfitt lost his little girl tragically years ago, she drowned in the pool in the house..

    I remember Francis Rossi staying in Jury's in the '80's - his girlfriend Liz was a friend of the girl I worked with - lovely fella....They had a lovely little lad at the time.

    I remember myself and my school friends were Status Quo fans.

    In the army now was a favourite of ours. I tuned in especially to hear them open Live Aid. I'm glad I did.

    If they ever make a movie about Status Quo, Colin Farrell should play the lad with black hair.

    Would love to know what the talking heads on the Black Sabbath documentary would have to say about The Quo.

    Bring on Marguerita time, where they had to get your man from Slade to play on TOTP because the Quo Bass player got the hump.

    Lads, I'm trying to be positive here...

    I'd love to go to a quo gig. Just to see if you get caught up in it. People do (or did) seem to love them. I really don't get it.

    That's the right attitude Donie - keep an open mind to the bands that haven't really grabbed you. You won't go wrong, sometimes you'll be swept off your feet by a band you never had much time for.

    An open mind will gather great rewards.

    Love the sound of Marvin Gaye's voice.

    Him and Smokey Robinson, I could listen to them for ages.
