There is a real energy in the studio
Can't find a way to embed the video, but here's the official transcript of the terrible new Cadbury's Flake advert.
We're in Maida Vale studios.
We see Joss Stone. She doesn't know we're watching, but we can see she is recording her next hit single with her band. There is a real energy in the studio.
We see Joss taking a break in recording and she finds a Flake bar on the side. Half jokingly, she starts singing a tune that is more famous than her - the Flake jingle.
Only the crumbliest, flakiest chocolate…
Her singing is so effortless and pure it makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up. As she finishes she unwraps the Flake, has a bite, and smiles to herself.
She then goes back to work.

Siren, Ray Lee, Futuresonic 2007
Visiting Victoria Baths in Manchester on Friday as part of Futuresonic 2007 we saw Ray Lee installing his sound installation Siren. An empty swimming pool was filled with a group of tripods with rotating arms, both ends of each arm transmitting a droning noise. Returning on Saturday for the performance, Victoria Baths was pretty busy with people sitting round the edge of pool and inside it.
It was a great performance. Ray Lee and his assistant wearing identical suits and turning each tripod in motion separately. I was expecting something a lot louder but the noise was really melodic.
