• Also the band Teleman are growing on me despite my initial dislike. Part of the reason I couldn't get to grips with them earlier was a grammatic quirk in their song Cristina:

    Cristina's so good
    She makes me go across town
    *She makes me to lie down*

    U wot m8?

    In the opening song of their new album, there's this:

    *I haven't got a place where to lay my hat*
    I long for the five-star life like that

    Is this poetic licence or just wrong? Is it acceptable? Why?

    Probably syllable-filling because they couldn't get the lines to fit the music. :)

    I suppose I'd better try to avoid listening to this band's work.
