Must Be The Music- Part Ye Firste

Sharleen Spiteri sandwiched between Jamie Cullum and Dizzee Rascal. No, it’s not the latest horrifying celebrity sex scandal (although just imagine it. IMAGINE), no, I’m talking about the line up of judges for Sky1’s new music talent search show ‘Must be the Music’, presented by Fearne ‘Oh no it’s Fearne Cotton’ Cotton.

Yes, you heard me right- Jamie Cullum, the least ‘street’ person in the universe, is thrown together with Dizzee Rascal in the oddest mashup since Justin Beiber duetted with the Wu Tang Clan.
I expected absolutely nothing from this, the eleventy billionth ‘star search’ show since Popstars splurged all over our screens back in 1999.

However, Must Be The Music (despite containing Fearne Cotton) is, if not unique, certainly refreshing. One of the show’s pledges is that acts can perform their own songs using ‘any instrument’- although they’re yet to email me back confirming whether I can play my cat like a set of bagpipes, which is a shame as I’ve been training him for ages.
