    At least I know of 8 of them. Numbers 4 & 6 have passed me by.

    The Weeknd is actually a Canadian solo artist. Sold millions. Always amused me that his stage name's spelling has a weak end ;)

    Sabrina Carpenter has been absolutely massive this year. And I enjoy Billy Eilish.

    I know I will have got old if I ever start liking Coldplay...

    God preserve us all.

    I don't know ANYONE who admits to liking Coldplay, and yet their gigs sell out in seconds & all their Albums sell well.

    One of life's mysteries. Like players who think Sky Poker is rigged but have been here 17 years. So many things in life I don't understand.

    I'd heard of 8 of them. The number that I would willingly listen to? One, Fleetwood Mac.

    Even though I remember Peter,Paul & Mary :D , I also know 9/10 of these artists with number 4 Chappell Roan being the exception.

    I quite liked this song by Noah Kahan when I first heard it.

    Would only listen to Fleetwood Mac, ah guess that's because am not up with the trendy Gen xyz or maybe it's because I've become an old ****.
    Ah was travelling back from Newcastle on the train the other day and ma wee suitcase was up on the overhead rack, ah stood up to lift it doon and this young lassie about 18 years old nudged me oot the road and said " ah'l get that for you mister ". ah must look ancient to these youngsters.

    There is worse than that.

    Some years ago, I was on a crowded train to London. I'm standing, and opposite me is seated a drop dead gorgeous female in a hankie-sized skirt.

    Couldn't help but look. Whereupon she said:-

    "Where are my manners, Sir? Would you like this seat?" :)
