The light was in Nick Clegg as half the NEET's (not in education, employment and training) tuned into the BBC news at six to see how the coalition were attempting to provide them with a new hope of life. The other half were out on the street breaking into houses and throwing bricks at oncoming traffic. He started off the interview really well using long sophisticated words such as 'because' but then couldn't resist taking a dig at the NEET's and blew the interview. How you ask? And I quote "every 18 - 24 year old C*nt in this country, who is out of work will have he opportunity to learn and earn." If you dont believe me then click on this link. No wonder David Cameroon once referred to him as his favourite political joke.
Today's song comes from an Israeli singer named Asaf Avidan. Asaf's growth in fame is positively correlated to the growth of the card game Yaniv. He has a distinct voice which is similar to the female lead singer in Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. He usually travels with his band the Mojo's and has opened for various artists including Ben Howard. Asaf has been described as the new Bob Dylan!/? and I was once described as the new Glen McGrath (but then my coach realised I was Jewish and wasn't goring to grow past 5'10). His music varies from soft acoustic guitar to sixties rock. The song is called 'the reckoning song' which is also the name of his top selling album, check it out.
Cannot believe clegg said that!! and also yaniv is a wicked game. Nice song too.
