Shane MacGowan is a living poet - and God knows he's lived! Alcoholism is a destructive disease, given to the both the gifted and the talentless. If you criticize his work for being "too slurry and drunk" as I read recently, then you are just the sort of person that would criticize a man with Parkinson's Disease for shaking too much.

I love how you can see Shane MacGowan take a swig of beer when the song goes into the bridge.

Jimmy McNulty was a gaping asshole, but I'll be damned if he wasn't natural po-lice.

What the fuck is wrong with people that, in the glare of exceptional talent, they focus on the trivialities? Does everyone have to be clean-cut-commercial? For goodness sakes, enjoy the share brilliance, the shining beauty that is such well written songs and dammit, celebrate our frailties. If you want to be part of the "fit in and be pretty" group, then move to a gated community and listen to commercial radio.

@neohip
Hurrah! A voice of reason. WTF would anyone come and listen to such exceptional and inspired talent and then go on to criticise the appearance of the lead singer? Do they only appreciate the generic and commercial? If so, then why are they even checking such brilliance out in the first place? Sheesh!
