      Aww this comment was left probably when I'd only just discovered Jamiroquai. Around 2010 by the looks of it, when I was 10. My mum had her iPod plugged in to the car while we were on a road trip and a song came on by them, I was like 'what's this weird band' then when we got home I looked on the music section of the TV (back when that was a thing) and listened to a bunch of their songs. They've been my favourite band ever since!

    @nath909 Ah yes. Because a man's profession is an immediate measure of his physical ability.
    Grow up, pal. Jay Kay acted just how most people act when they are pissed - utterly idiotic and grossly immature. He is human, after all. And in his earlier days the sheer immensity of his success went straight to his head. That is to be expected of a young man.
    Nowadays, he has completely matured. The only people that cite his earlier days of idiocy are those that are jealous of him now. Life fact.

    Those who treat that celebrity as arrogant don't know shite about his funky masterpieces that are shaing the radio waves as we speak.
