Manic Street Preachers - Send Away The Tigers

More shocking advice from the Manic Street Preachers. Tigers are magical creatures. We should embrace them - figuratively, at least. I'm not sure giving a tiger a hug would be too productive.

I see that the Manics have fallen foul of the despicable trend for blending words together. We have two tracks exhibiting this abhorrent technique on this album: 'Autumnsong' and 'Winterlovers'.

Why is everyone so against spaces? Spaces are lovely and easy on the eye. They're also of crucial importance at times. If I said that the Manics were 'shiteels' that could mean that they were either 'shit eels' or 'shite els' - Ernie Els being a prominent golfer of course. Is there any greater weapon in the satirists armoury than to liken someone to a golfer?

If there were no such thing as spaces, you'd constantly be adjacent to a tiger as well. Space rocks.
