To commomorate what promises to be one of the best christmasses of the millenium, Kum Ba Yah records have produced a special christmas song...with an intreguing twist that will whip KBY competition fans into a festive frenzy of creativity.
With this competition Kum Ba Yah challenges contestants to set lyrics, written by a leading light from the KBY roster, to a musical accompaniment. Entries will be judged by the KBY staff and the winner will be entered into a mystery christmas prize draw that could see them win the opportunity to be entered into a mystery raffle that could win them a recording contract with KBY, pending the result of a prize draw. 

The lyrics are as follows:

Verse 1

Yule log, yule log

You'll have a nice time at christmas time

You'll dance, you'll sing

Yule log, yule log

Chorus

Christmas, yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah

Come on baby, yeah

Verse 2

Santa's-a-coming

Gotta be a good kid

Christmas trees

Repeat chorus

Middle 8

Gotta work it on out (x6)

C'mon baby lets work it on out (x3)

Repeat chorus

Good luck creative competition fans and may I take this opportunity to wish you all a very merry chistmas....and a Happy New Year. Season's greetings to one and all! All the best for the new year and a very merry Christmas....everyone!!! HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!! Best wishes for the festive season this Christmas. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

UV Rays, the band featuring former members of former KBY band Nursing Home have been signed by KBY. Other bands who are signed include Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight and, incredibly, Editors. 

The band are said to be "pleased...very pleased....very pleased indeed".
Richard Entezari, the bass player, was being busy being signed in Big Hands or somewhere like that and so was unavailable for comment.

The news has been met with warmth from the signed community. Lars Ulrich, whose band Metallica is signed, said in his silly voice "Being signed is fucking awesome, I have the most fucking awesome time every day of my fucking awesome life. When me and James started the band in 1783 blah blah blah".

Even George Bush had some words of encouragement: "Although I was never signed per-se, I was president of America which is the next best thing, and dagnabbit if those weren't the best years of my life. Hoooooooooo-wee!!"

But bineg signed could perhaps prove something of a double-edged sword for the band. Lewis Calvert who sings some of their songs said "In getting signed we've achieved our ultimate goal...there doesn't seem much point writing any more songs now...unless you can get signed twice". 

Food, glorious food! Isn't food nice? But food can be expensive, especially now that the credit crunch has taken away all our money. So it's a good job that Kum Ba Yah Records have taken the time to prepare these nice recipes for credit crunch munch that you can eat for your lunch or even at brunch. 

Isn't pasta nice? Yes, and it's also cheap which means that it's exactly the kind of food to be eating as we face financial Armageddon. Did you know that pasta is the favourite food of Italians? I'm sure our Italian friends don't need telling about of pasta, they're probably sick to death of it. I'm sick and tired of people moaning that they're skint all the time when if they would only eat some pasta they'd have more money to spend on beer. Everyone knows that vegetables are disgusting but if you cook them they can taste quite nice. All food can be enhanced by adding salt. If you've ever wondered why peanuts taste so nice, it's because they're covered with salt. Salt is good because it makes you thirsty so you drink more water which is good for you, unless you are a slug. But salt wasn't always as cheap as it is now, many years ago salt was considered a luxury which is why we say people are "worth their salt", but if you think about it, today it's actually an insult. 
Biscuits can also provide a delicious and economical alternative to food. Brands such as 'Best In' are an example to us all, able as they to make delicious biscuits without the need for costly 'proper' ingredients. Why would anyone buy Walkers crisps for 45p when infinitely more exciting and delicious crisps (e.g. space raiders) are available for 10p? It is quite telling that Space Raiders don't even need to advertise their crisps- even though they now foil wrapped. That's because they know that crisps are an intrinsically desirable product and will sell themselves. Advertising crisps is like trying to selling coal to ..:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Newcastle was many years ago because everybody already likes crisps and they don't care which brand they buy because they already like crisps. No one should need any kind of assistance in choosing which kind of crisps to buy because it's a really easy decision to make.
