And Finally
Gary Barlow names Collective
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 13 September 2011
Right, now I’m not saying that Sun readers are rubbish at thinking up band names, but at the very least Gary Barlow is no good at selecting them from lists of suggestions from the tabloid’s faithful.
As previously reported, Barlow asked for submissions to choose a moniker for his new urban music collective, who as previously reported have recorded this year’s Children In Need charity single, last month. And now he’s announced that he’s gone with The Collective. Seriously, that’s the one he thought was best.
Produced by Labrinth, and featuring Barlow, Tinchy Stryder, N-Dubz, Ms Dynamite, Wretch32, Ed Sheeran, Rizzle Kicks, Ms Dynamite, Mz Bratt and Dot Rotten, The Collective will release their cover of Massive Attack’s ‘Teardrop’ on 13 Nov.
I can’t believe he rejected my suggestion of The Group. Bastard.
