It is bombarded by asteroids, comets and rogue planets; volcanoes and earthquakes destroy it from within. The planet is depopulated, or overpopulated, then riven by pandemics, droughts and disease. The seas drain away or rise, drowning everything. And...

Jimmy Carr, Laugh Funny: an up-yours to civility – delivered with AI joke-bot efficiency

Jimmy Carr certainly does, as his latest tour title reminds us, “laugh funny”. I once heard his world-famous honk constantly erupt from the back row of an Edinburgh Fringe show performed by the very low-fi Edward Aczel – a deadpan ‘anti-comic’ who used to have a penchant for reading out the Wikipedia entry on the Spanish Armada on stage. It’s not t...

Barbra Streisand’s 20 greatest songs – ranked!

20. Guava Jelly (1974) Earning its place here for its WTF factor: Barbra Streisand covering a Bob Marley track (albeit one indebted to Steam’s 1969 bubblegum smash Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye) before the Wailers broke the US. Bizarrely, it works: gleeful 70s pop soul, gentle reggae inflection in the chorus, Streisand’s vocal suggesting grasped the song’s lubricious undercurrent. 19.

Big Zuu: ‘Music and cooking make me feel euphoric’

My dad is one of five, and Mum has 13 siblings; my grandad was busy. I’m from Sierra Leone, where we have lots of kids, and most of our relatives still...
