THE NME AWARDS 2006: yeah, wicked!

"Wow, that was so cool and anti-establishment. Like a giant 'fuck you!' to the manufactured crap in the charts. Exept when Sugababes did I Bet You Look Good Etc, what was that about?? I'm so glad the Arctic Monkeys won everything - they are so excellent and credible. Lol! Right, let's pop down to HMV and buy the new Editors album (the critics seem to love it!) as well as Ian Brown's greatest hits cd, yeah, well good, wicked."

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO: tyler james

We once sat on the tube opposite a very good-looking, very over-styled Tyler James, and thought 'ooh, spotted!'. Until we realised the unlikely lord was on the verge of a mini breakdown, fighting hard to hold back the tears and finding comfort in the soothing touch of an older lady (manager? faghag? mother?). But where is young Tyler now? "IN THE DUMPER", we hear you shout.

Well, if he is, we're blaming his record company for the ridiculous biography posted on his official website, which states the following: "If the lads round Tyler's way did anything for a living it certainly wasn't singing; these days most of Tyler's mates are in prison". Mkay then!

BLOODY HELL, NELLY FURTADO: maneater

Listen to THIS, and count the seconds before you forget all about the bad b.o. rumours and hyper-active boxtalks, and become entirely enthralled in the genius that is Nelly Furtado's new sound. Whoa.

LENNY KRAVITZ: absolut sellout

Such great album covers but such poor material over the past five years... Click Here

MIKE SKINNER: aka mike skinner

Now we know some (most) of you will be of the opinion that Mike Skinner belongs under a truck, but we at SPUNK must admit to have always been fond of the wise-cracking pikey.

Whilst being fully aware that all of his songs get unbelievably irritating after a few weeks of incessant airplay on Radio One, new single When You Wasn't Famous is currently still very fresh and, well, brilliant.

SUGABABES: wearing red dresses!!!
