MY TOP 10 HUMANS OF 2010..
10. The Guy that threw an envelope at Jeremy Kyle For doing just that!
9. Gary Gardner (from La La Land) For making me laugh. It’s like living in Hertford again.
8. Kanye West For the HUGE album obviously and for being a non-stop nutcase.
7. My Doctor For feeling my balls and confirming i was in perfect working order.
6. Jack Barnett (These New Puritans) For making such a different sounding album full of ideas and for making other bands look completely dumb.
5. Stuart ‘The Brand’ Baggs (from The Apprentice) For all the quotes.
4. Little Tracey (at Asda) For putting up with the Pollards. How do you do it!?
3. Wagner - with a side helping of Louis Walsh (X-Factor) For all the laughs and tears.
2. Johnny Lynch For being action man. He made 2 albums, planned 2 festivals (maybe more?), toured non stop, survived a near-death log incident, employed me, and gave me free tickets to two of my most fun weekends this year.
1. James Blake For creating alien music. The amazing three EPs, the remixes, and the new album. I’m always wanting to hear someone who makes me think differently about music and he definitely did that this year. I’m no Paul Gambaccini.
