if it's Shane McGowan (sorry I missed the interview), he's the singer with the Pogues, well known for being in a constant state of drunkeness.

Well I didn't see it... but I do love this song... It was Christmas Eve babe In the drunk tank An old man said to me, won't see another one And then he sang a song The Rare Old Mountain Dew I turned my face away And dreamed about you Got on a lucky one Came in eighteen to one I've got a feeling This year's for me and you So happy Christmas I love you baby I can see a better time When all our dreams come true They've got cars big as bars They've got rivers of gold But the wind goes right through you It's no place for the old When you first took my hand On a cold Christmas Eve You promised me Broadway was waiting for me You were handsome You were pretty Queen of New York City When the band finished playing They howled out for more Sinatra was swinging, All the drunks they were singing We kissed on a corner Then danced through the night The boys of the NYPD choir Were singing "Galway Bay" And the bells were ringing out For Christmas day You're a bum You're a punk You're an old slut on junk Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed You scumbag, you maggot You cheap lousy faggot Happy Christmas your arse I pray God it's our last I could have been someone Well so could anyone You took my dreams from me When I first found you I kept them with me babe I put them with my own Can't make it all alone I've built my dreams around you copyright 1988 Shane MacGowan & Jem Finer

how do you know that he earns 2k for the interview Bryan ?

Pat Report 26 Nov 2004 02:00

What's worse is if it was 2K? and the BBC handed it over to children in need it would not cause as much of a stir as some drunk who has a talent but wastes it (as a lot of talented people do) sitting being controversial as usual in our living rooms, ah well the telly doesnt change much does it? Remember the sex pistols on TV just after 6pm news and the trouble that caused? As usual its all been done before. Pat x

I didn't see it, but what you see with Shane MacGowan is what you get. I love The Pogues stuff - Rum, Sodomy & The Lash is a great album. He was on 'This Week' (the late night politics programme with Andrew Neil, Diane Abbott & Michael Portillo) a couple of months ago, as well, though I can't remember what they were talking about.
