This is a FACT.

Before we publish the full audited review of yesboyicecream's 2008, we would just like to point out the following...

According to its website, The Sunday Business Post (Ireland's financial, political and economic newspaper) has grown out of, and continues to develop according to, a clearly defined set of guiding conditions, principles and goals.

One of these goals is: News, not views.

This is explained thuswise: "We believe in the neglected but still essential value of reporting the news, of recording and communicating the facts, events and developments of the commercial life of the country."

This is relevant because, in its December 21st edition, the brilliant, handsome and hardly-ever-wrong Johnnie Craig had this to say about Michael Knight's album, in his review of the year's best music.

"It may be the age of instant, one-song downloads, but 2008 was chock-full of truly excellent and artfully-crafted long-players...[snip]...Top billing has to go to Richie Murphy’s Michael Knight, whose flamboyant and meticulously-arranged second album, I’m Not Entirely Clear How I Ended Up Like This, should be sought by anyone with a penchant for Neil Hannon, or even Noel Coward. Wonderful stuff."

This is, we repeat, the opinion of a brilliant journalist, who is hardly-ever-wrong.

As such, it would be remiss of you not to buy Michael Knight's album from the yesboyicecream shop today. Or at least download a track or two to see what the fuss is all about. Michael Knight's myspace is here...
