Notorious LOLmachine Tom Chaplin from Keane has said some harsh words about the current hit parade.
Talking to the Daily Star, Chaplin seriously said the following words: “The charts are in a sorry state and it’s all just noise to me.”
Chappo thinks “fake pop has taken over” alongside “terrible Europop and shit R&B that makes me think: ‘What’s going on? Didn’t this rubbish sound tired in the Nineties, let alone now?’”
You need to listen to ‘Starships’ on repeat for an hour Tom, that will sort you out.
