It is a word that I always avoid using. Those who use English as their mother tongue (i.e. those who don't struggle to translate if it isn't their mother tongue) can always use a better replacement. It's a bit like swearing. I won't mention words here, because we are a family forum, but I can swear with the best of people. There is always an alternative word to use that is better English that expresses your emotions though.

Dire Straits is an expression to describe a situation you find yourself in.

Kill to get crimson, still uses the word, but you can deduce what he means by the phrase. "Get Lucky". What does it mean?? Become lucky, make sure you are lucky, he wasn't lucky, he is lucky?? Nobody knows. What does the verb "get" describe here???

Thinking about it, as many of you say, he has used "street language" before. He wouldn't have dared to use it in his journo days, and I wonder whether this is a title that is written from the heart, or if MK realises that the titles are not the best grammatically. I'm sure he has better things to worry about, though. What did "love over Gold" mean, for example?? And before anyone posts a reply, yes, I do know where the title Love Over Gold comes from!!

Thanks for your reply, SuperVal, can't get excited about it though I acknowledge your source, my English teacher always drummed it into me that the word should not be used.

Seriously, it is the one word in the English language that I absolutely hate, and I always avoid it. Always have, always will. I challenge anyone to find the word in any of my posts, other than quoting titles etc.

Henk, Sir Eric once said there is one in every crowd, and after 1291 posts, you have found the one .

The album is released on 14th Sept, which is my wedding anniversary. I'll buy Sarah a copy She said Boyzone in Birmingham were good tonight -is this grounds for a divorce? Legal opinions appreciated.
