Not at all; its a valid comparison, Bryant and the Nolans had worldwide appeal, despite not being universally acknowledged as famous and/or significant.

Toast 8,993 Posted December 22, 2020 1 hour ago, natquen said: Yes, I remember that (the passing in 2015)... but had never heard of them before (born '78). The Nolans seem to have had a continued media presence/fascination in the UK, despite achieving relatively little. I've already told you - one was an actress, a regular cast member in two popular soaps, and another has made well over a thousand appearances as a presenter or regular panellist on daytime TV shows (not counting reality shows). Relatively trivial "achievements" in the grand scheme of things, but actual careers rather than media whoring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not saying it isn't. That wasn't the point at all. Others however.... In fact I know fack all about kobe bryant and not much more about the nolans, neither interest me in the slightest.

Wouldn't even have to pay royalties on the advert song, which would clearly be rereleased and get to number 1... On second thoughts, Hudson's will do just fine. If I may continue with your fine work, Sir Gin Rice: I'm in the mood for dance gin I feel like dance gin Ooh so come on and get me tight Cancer, (cancer) not in the mood, babe So let the chemo play Ooh I've got cancer (cancer) plug in the tubes, babe If I get up you'll see my body sway (body sway) I'm in the mood for dance gin, romance gin You know I'm gonna get pissed tonight I'm in the mood for dance gin I feel like dance gin Ooh from head to my toes The cancer has spread And heaven who knows Just where it will end And they call US sick?!
