Hello, youie. Nice to see you on the new forum. How's it going?

That one he did called 'The Streak' was overplayed. I think his worst was 'Guitarzan' though. Was does Ray Stevens call himself now that he's a Muslim again?

I'm sorry, saturnboy, but I think you're referring to Ray Parker, Junior.

I really dislike "The Night Chicago Died."

I really hate that one that goes ' I bin through the desert on a cat with no name, and it's good to be out of the rain etc etc'

It's not as bad as "Get Back, Honky Cat" ot "Goodbye, Yallah Brick Road."

I Don't really get her, is that her stage name or her band name? Is Chan Marshall her Islamic name? Stupid Islamic name if you aske me. And while pleasant the albums I've heard don't really catch my attention.

"Chan Marshall" does sing sime back up on the new Beck album though and does a good job.

Yusuf Islam wins damages for "veiled women" slur

British folk singer Yusuf Islam, formerly Cat Stevens, accepted libel damages and an apology on Friday from a news agency that reported he had refused to talk to women at an awards ceremony who were not wearing a veil.

The artist, who changed his name after becoming a Muslim in the late 1970s, will donate the "substantial" payout to Small Kindness, a U.N.-linked charity he chairs.

Adam Tudor, the singer's attorney, told London's High Court that the story behind the legal action was published by World Entertainment News Network and was used on Contactmusic.com, a website said to have 2.2 million page views a month.

The article appeared in March last year and suggested that the singer was "so sexist and bigoted that he refused at an awards ceremony to speak to or even acknowledge any women who were not wearing a veil," Tudor said.

"It went on to suggest that Mr. Islam's manager had stated 'Mr. Islam doesn't speak with women except his wife, least of all if they don't wear a headscarf. Things like that only happen via an intermediary.'"

Tudor said the article had embarrassed the singer, creating a false impression of his attitude to women and also casting serious aspersions on his religious faith.

World Entertainment News Network issued an apology, saying:

"We now accept that these allegations ... are entirely without foundation, and that Mr. Islam has never had any difficulties working with women, whether for religious or for any other reason."

Islam, 59, is still best known for his hits as Cat Stevens, including "Wild World," "Morning Has Broken" and "Moonshadow."

He sold an estimated 60 million albums as Stevens, but retired from showbusiness in 1978 after converting to Islam. He released his first mainstream pop album since then in 2006.
