Hopefully it's an announcement to say they have split up for good, and will not be releasing any more material, and to apologise for subjecting people to their back catalogue.

One of the few acts, allong with queen and Michael Jackson that I will literally turn the radio off if they come on, just detest them.
Thought they jacked it in years ago to be honest. |

![]() ![]() Or how about Simply Another Shade of Red? I'll have a look at the Dulux colour chart for possible ideas

They might have faded in the sun. Simply Pink?
![]() Or how about Simply Yellow? Simply Orange sounds too much like an advert for a well-known 'phone company.

Mick Hucknall may be a knob but they have done some good songs.
OP ignore the comments, most people on here are only really interested in chart music, so they probably wouldn't be interested in a band who hasn't been in the charts for a while. |

I know only two or three songs by them (which I quite like), so I can't judge, but I had no idea they are so hated

Horribly bland, dull, watered down soul lite band with a singer who has an ego the size of London.
The only decent song they ever did was an insipid limp cover of a great song - Moneys Too Tight To Mention by The Valentine Brothers. And one of my pet hates is when people call If You Don't Know Me By Now a Simply Red song. Try listening to the Harold Melvin version and then see how poor the SR version was. |
