Now, after a view or two of this, a couple of interesting things spring to mind...

1: There've been many things written about this fella over the last few years, and many heavy words thrown his way...druggie, poet, genius, idiot, icon, cesspit, to name but six. But has anyone ever noticed what an unbearable smart-arse he is? Or at least he WAS. Alright son, read a book or two, have we? Good lad...

2: Look at the enthusiastic way he keeps throwing his head forward to try and catch the microphone...Anyone who witnessed the Live8 concert will recognise this movement. Sad to note that his mic technique hasn't really improved a lot in the last ten years.

3: Don't be fooled by the enthusiastic response he gets from the camera crew here. If you had to interview a queueful of Oasis fans about why they like the band, and endure twenteen identical replies along the lines of "Oasis mean it, man! They're the people's band! Not like Blur, I hate Blur!", you'd get over-excited at a passing reference to an Italian novelist and philosopher.

4: Kind of cute though, innee? And if being a 17-year-old show-off is a crime, you'd have to convert all the sixth form colleges to prisons and have done with it [insert your own satirical joke about how your sixth form basically IS a prison]...
