I absolutely LOVE Pulp and Common People is my favorite Pulp song. Disco 2000 is awesome too. And I love the Shatner remake. Classic!!!!!

Yep, Pulp was great and that Shatner remake is a hoot. It's even got Joe Jackson on it.

I do think Jarvis Cocker looks like a grasshopper. Kind of looks like Conan O'Brien, too...

i could listen to shatner talk all day...and that's not something i'd normally say about a guy...he just rawks. never heard him do common people, thanks mr. the hawg!

Ha! Never thought about him looking like Conan. Jarvis is a HUGE sex symbol in England. I remember when Princess Diana died, the BBC reported at the time that Pulp was Prince Williams' favorite band. One of my best friends went to England for his honeymoon and he said that they actually play Pulp in the elevators! How cool would that be to have Pulp for elevator music??????
