Amy MacDonald has said that she is yet to make any money from her debut album, 'This Is The Life', which topped the album chart when it was release in January last year, or from touring.
She said via Twitter: "I have yet to make one penny from album sales. People don't realise how much it costs to make and release an album". She added: "You don't have a proper idea about gigs. The money is all swallowed up by promoters and agents. I haven't made money from gigs".
Still, that's not what I really called you all here to talk about. I'm more interested in moaning about the fact that while I had little-to-no opinion of Amy MacDonald two weeks ago, I now hate her with a passion thanks to her heavily rotated and all round terrible advert on Spotify. "Spotify think everybody loves music, and I think you will too". Yes, I do in fact include myself in the group known as 'everybody', thanks Amy.
Still, no publicity is bad publicity, right? Okay, good, we agree. Now that I've publicised her, could you stop playing the bloody advert, please?
