    I prefer the Profanisaurus definition of an Almond:

    Anyone who's not been moved by Robert Wyatt's version of 'Shipbuilding' (possibly the greatest cover version ever) or cares that completely flies in the face of musical training, is not quite human IMHO.<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote">
    Yes, I love his flat, whiney singing! And I agree with your previous post which conveys what I was trying to say, but more eloquently.

    And the rumour about Marc Almond and the stomach full of semen is an urban myth.

    for those with an enquiring mind...........

    i remember the 'rumour' whilst being a soft cell fan at a military school (you may be able to imagine the ridicule to which I was subject) and sort of thought then...eh...why would you..eh..actually analyse the contens and eh...how would you be able to tell without some sort of dna test and eh.....

    confirmed when the same story surfaced about both jimmy sommerville and the boy from erasure (andty bell)

    just shows you....homophobia alive and well and masquerading as an urban myth

    obvioulsy its impossible to be gay and not be shagging animals

    "What is art?" What people do and don't like is subjective of course. Doesn't get away from the fact that Marc Almond's performance on Friday Night is Music Night was cringingly out of tune. And Billsters, he doesn't sing flat. He sings sharp! Which is an art in itself.

    I don't recall saying he sang "flat", and please stop trying to "teach" me. As you say, what we like is subjective.

    A friend who knows him said he was laughing off those stories in the 80s and early 90s, he is getting a bit weeed off with it now, though so please refer anyone who repeats the story to the page on stopes.com. It's a good site to bookmark, I tend to check any far-fetched story that happened to someone's uncle on there.
