"I was sucked in at first by the lyrics. Alex sounded like a rare poet playing music – he has a special gift for the gab."

Gavin Rossdale's daughter Daisy Lowe DJ'ed her mum's vintage clothing store opening in London last night. The mum is Pearl Lowe, who is married to the guy from Supergrass.

I know you're wishing she was making out with Alexa Chung, who is the girlfriend of Arctic Monkey's singer Alex Turner, but she's not. Hehe.

One of the Arctic Monkeys new songs has showed up on the internet after someone recorded their appearance they did for an Australian TV show earlier this year. The song is called 'Crying Lightening.'

After giving it a few listens, I am going to have to agree with one of the commenters on NME with this one: "big arctic monkeys fan but i have got to say that song is utter shit. it is by far the worse thing they have written."

Except I'm not a 'big arctic monkeys fan.'  Any thoughts??
