No rock act commanded the mainstream heights either, as even Coldplay rushed leftfield, hiring Brian Eno and some silly outfits. This is how things will be now that we are at the point, first suggested by David Bowie in 2002, where music is 'like running water or electricity'. It's all there for everyone, should they want it, making it nigh-on impossible for any single artist to capture the moment.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/57BBA8A5-A918-45AB-A2CD-94E6C0F42605/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
